Despite the PS2 being graphically inferior to the GameCube, Capcom made up for this by adding extra content into the PS2 version of Resident Evil 4. It shortly thereafter received a release on the PlayStation 2, the most popular console from that generation. However, after its record breaking success and impressive sales numbers, Capcom wanted to further capitalize on Resident Evil 4by making it available on other consoles. This deal granted Nintendo exclusivity to five big titles from Capcom, which would only be available on the GameCube, with Resident Evil 4 being the most notable of the bunch. This success was a big win for Nintendo, as Resident Evil 4 was at the time, part of a deal known as the "Capcom Five".
Considered a revolutionary third person action horror experience, Resident Evil 4 went on to influence other similar entries in the genre for years to come.
Despite a lengthy and troubled development history, Resident Evil 4 took the gaming industry by storm when it hit the GameCube in early 2005.
