Online retailers, they are really only good at:

A) “Accidentally” listing a game that is yet to be officially announced, beating publishers to the mark and causing PR managers to curse their latest top secret project being revealed by a button-happy online retailer.

B) Somehow coming up with their own games, listing games that are neither confirmed or even in development.

Whether it’s down to a dodgy marketing trick, causing thousands of confused gamers to flock to their pages to try and see if a yet-announced game is actually in existence, or simply due to uninformed mistakes made by the data entry team, online retailers sure do love to list some odd products.

The latest to do so is GameStop, who have listed Resident Evil 4 for the Wii, and is apparently scheduled to ship on June 25th of this year. Below you can find an apparent screengrab taken from the listing, which appeared on the Go Nintendo blog.

Can we expect Resident Evil 4 on the Wii? Given the success of the game on both the GameCube and PS2, it’s quite likely Capcom may want to try and milk the last drop of money from the game before it fades into the retro darkness. Then again, Capcom is already developing a “new” Resident Evil game designed specifically for the Wii, so we see little reason for Capcom bringing the game onto the Wii. Although, playing and aiming as Leon with the Wiimote would be pretty darn cool.
