Kotaku claims to have spoken with insider sources at Nintendo, who attribute the lost exclusivity of Resident Evil 4 to Nintendo reconsidering the inclusion of Capcom characters in Brawl. RE4 was originally meant to be exclusive to the Gamecube, but concerns over sales led Capcom to release the title on PS2, and later on PC, with additional content.
Former Naughty Dog dev says Resident Evil 4 inspired Unchartted and even Gears of War, particularly the over-the-shoulder camera view.
It revolutionized third-person shooters, in a genius way that gives you full control of aiming.
No, I mean RE4. Like the whole snap to over-shoulder and precision aiming was what I meant.
I won’t deny Winback does pave the way in some respect. But it’s not the same at all.
I thought this was common knowledge. Resident Evil Revolutionised over the shoulder aiming in 3rd person shooters/action games
Influenced basically every third person action game made after it, GTA uses the over the shoulder perspective when shooting since the 4th installment, Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2 too and the Batman Arkham series has the over the shoulder perspective as the main camera throughout the whole game series.
Obviously there are a ton more examples but you get the point 🗿.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

The first line of this story makes NO sense...
I don't want to sound like some sort of Nintendo hater, because I'm not, but when it comes to situations like this, Nintendo tends to always seem to be a little whiney. Sure, it would have been nice for Nintendo to exclusively have RE4 on their GameCube back in the day, but come on, Capcom needs to make a profit too. When there are like 120 million PS2s out there versus 20-30 million GameCubes, and the GameCube demographic is mostly (but not exclusively) a younger audience, it is the smart thing to do. Nintendo essentially made a few too many comprimes with the gamecube and hurt developer relations with the N64 to really warrant full, exclusive support from any company except 1st and 2nd parties really. So really, Nintendo should be mad at themselves for creating the situation back then and welcome back developers with open arms. "Sure, let's bring in [insert favorite Capcom charcter(s)] for Brawl. Sorry about the lackluster Gamecube sales, we understand why our exclusivity deal last generation broke off. At least we are doing better now".
Yeah, Nintendo's feelings get hurt just a little too easy sometimes. Look at the current fiasco with GoldenEye.
Also, I haven't heard anything about this idea, given that Nintendo's online system right now is not that advanced and they don't exactly have the most storage on their system, but it could be possible that more characters will become downloadable as time goes on. Characters like Mega Man or Leon could be added in at a later date. I don't see why this would be problem at all, though I won't hold my breath for it. I know Nintendo is a little slow with the whole idea of downloadable content for games, but you can always hope.
Mega man would fit perfectly.
Anyway I don't think there is a satiation between Nintendo and Capcom cause I believe Nintendo had something to do with the new Monster Hunter going exclusively for the Wii, so anything that happened in the past is probably under the bridge.
they didnt make any HERO like character .
the character that many gamers KNOW his/her name not just play it..
just compare RE charcters with MGS , there is no way in hell that u play MGS series and forget SNAKE and his character ..
but I played many RE games (1,2,3,4) but I didnt remember their names.
they must MAKE a series based on 1 or 2 MAIN character , so there u are!!
