RE Origins Collection [RE0 & REmake] (NA retail release, EU digital only) & RE4 (Digital Only) coming May 21st for Switch
- Thread starter Rodjer
- Start date
I forgot about that. And they have a history with the Revelatioms collection. :(
Lack of physical for EU is a bummer, but tbh I don't have any desire to purchase Resident Zero so I see it as a massive plus.
This is my hope as well and the current lack of news is a real bummer.
Weirdly there is something about it not getting a physical release that almost makes me think it won't have the motion controls. Not sure that I could honestly explain to you why but that's my thought I guess.
I had such a narrow focus on games as a kid that I missed a lot of big franchises.
Looking forward to these and the FF games dropping, and having them all on the same console no less.

I'm surprised how long this is taking, considering it was announced last September or October if I recall correctly.
I was ready to dive back in and give capcom my money for Switch Resi 4 after playing through the 2 remake, they better be taking their time to make this the most all singing, all dancing version of Resi 4 yet.

Motherfucker!
I could understand RE0 being digital (which will probably happen for the NA retail) but 4? Cmon Capcom. We've been having a great year so far.

I'm surprised this wasn't announced in the Direct. And why the hell it's so late ? May ! Come on Capcom.
I believe Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate is separate between its Japanese and international versions.
Because it's low-effort support from a company like Capcom, offering RE4 as eshop only and RE1R/0 as physical only in NA.
Nintendo has no reason to reward such low effort support with a highlight in a Direct.
Indeed MHXX (JP version of MHGU) was never patched to support languages other than Japanese.

If RE4 holds true to previous releases and offers no language options in the Japanese release, then you're looking at a censored release you can't read. Maybe not a dealbreaker for a game like RE4 but worth considering.

I have the GameCube and Wii physical copies of RE4. I'm pretty fine with only having digital releases going forward. Of course for those that haven't had the opportunity to own it physical, I hope you get the chance.
Oh snap, it actually might be!
Switch can surely run the new PC port of RE4 at 1080p60 docked, right? Then it would be a straight upgrade over PS4/XB1 with portability in mind.
Wonder how taxing RE4 even is at 1080p60 and if the PS4/X1 could have supersampled it on the amateur consoles.
That's a fair point. The support of Capcom on the Switch has been abysmal.
Yeah, you're right, but this is before the support that started with REvelation, and the west MH sku was released after a lot of time respect the japanese one... we'll see.
Definitely worth noting! My memory might be shakey but didn't the original Japanese release of 4 kind of line up with changes to the Japanese games rating system or something along those lines (possibly related to some law change)? I can't recall why but I kind of associate RE4 with a bit of a tide change in video game violence. Pre-RE4 it wasn't uncommon for games to be censored in the west and uncensored in Japan but post RE4 it seems as though the opposite became true. Is there something to that?
Also, is RE5 the only post-RE4 game in the series to be basically identical in terms of violence in all regions? I want to say Rev1,2,RE6,UC,DC all (at bare minimum) have decapitations in them. Having said that, I kind of always wondered if the Japanese version is the reason blood in RE6 almost looks more black than red? Sorry for tossing a bunch of aimless questions in your direction but I figured if anyone knew this stuff it would probably be you! lol
True
But portable re4 is a day one purchase for me
I just hope that this will be a solid port (as the revelation ones imho)
Is Onimusha a global SKU? Or is it censored in Japan? I really want to import the Switch version.
Yeah for how bad the support has been in terms of what games are coming and when, the actual ports have been excellent. I have high hopes for RE4.
The price of larger cartridges went down this year right? Maybe they waited until May so they could put the Origins Collection on one cart?
please?
And they can add wonderful game breaking gyro for your purist heart to ignore but for me to embrace!
And HD RUMBLE
Not a chance.
They can't even afford RE4 (Which with compression can fit a 8GB card) at 20. Do you honestly think they can afford a 32GB card at 40?
OK, I'm in for some HD Rumble on the bolt action rifle reload

This has been helpful for me, although I've since bought a Power A wireless gamecube controller. Build quality and feel is as good as the new Nintendo GC pads, and it has all the modern bits you need to use it in ever game (additional bumper, clickable sticks, home and screenshot button, + and -, etc).
Unless they offer a good discount for preordering I will probaby get this on ps4. Nintendo digital store is rubish and they will offer first sale on halloween. I'm not paying $20 for games that were discounted several times on every other platform.
Should have happened a long time ago, but I'm so happy the GOAT is finally going to be portable.
Yeah but the benefit of no decapitations is that Dr. Salvador's chainsaw just tickles Leon's neck and inflicts no damage. It's like playing on easy mode!
Checked out the JPN pages, only details I found
- RE4 is digital only even in japan currently
- RE Origins Edition will be physical in Japan with RE0 as a download
- RE 0 page mentions it has 2 player (But this might just be a mistake)
Nothing else is unique between them.

Asia is our only hope now.
Well, Asia got the physical version of World of Final Fantasy for Switch while Japan didn't.
Damn if only RE4 it came out a few days earlier before my summer trip. Could have gotten my head chopped off in the plane.
Edit: The trip is after, hooray!
