Rumor: Resident Evil port in Japan for Christmas [Update]

We won't be sure until there are scans, because sometimes information that originates on 2ch is erroneous or just plain made up, but according to Wii@Everyday's summary of the latest issue of Famitsu, Capcom is preparing yet another Resident Evil port for the Wii, for release on December 25.

This time, it's a "faithful port" of the GameCube Resident Evil remake. Like Resident Evils Zero and 4, this is a direct port. Unlike Zero, a bit of waggle has been added (to draw your weapon). The new version will be compatible with GameCube controllers, so it will be entirely possible to buy this and pretend you're playing the GameCube version -- which, by the way, is quite cheap!

[Update: Scans now available at the link! Guess that confirms it.]
