Its director, Shinji Mikami, publicly stated that he would rather cut off his head than see the game on another console. Nine months later, it was on PlayStation 2. Twenty years later, it has been ported to more than seventeen different platforms, including the Zeebo, a three-year-old 3G-enabled console, and the Oculus Quest 2, where it was almost completely rebuilt in virtual reality. In this video, we review the complete story of how and why Capcom ported Resident Evil 4 to absolutely everything: what changed in each version, which port was the most disastrous, which was the most brilliant, how the Wii version replaced the iconic laser pointer with a crosshair and why that was actually a good decision, what QLOC had to do with the PC finally receiving a decent port in 2014, and why this game continues to sell and remain relevant decades after its original release.
