Want your Resident Evil 4 on the go? Lucky you, because Capcom is porting what is regarded to be among the best games ever to mobile phones. Before you cringe, take a very close look at the scan above.

Biohazard 4, as they call RE4 in Japan, will get its mobile edition with all the Las Plagas blasting action intact. Even the picky would have to agree that the graphics look astounding for a mobile game, especially since it's not running on an actual gaming platform. Then again, in Japan, phones give gamers much loving.

Not much can be said about Biohazard 4 Mobile Edition, but it's noticeable how the interface has changed. We would also love to know how keypads would be like after intense button-pressing moments like the knife battle with Jack Krauser. Our eyes are peeled for new details and a release date, so watch this space!

After announcing the next N-Gage model, mobile phone giant Nokia has been enjoying a lot of support from different developers and publishers. When last we looked, there were around 35 games currently in development for the said platform. Given its user base though, we're pretty certain more are coming, and that's certainly the case in this news article.

Earlier today, Capcom announced that it will also be supplying games for the N-Gage, making it the first Japan-based publisher to show commitment to the mobile phone. Yosuke Yoneda, Director of Capcom's European Mobile Division, had this to say about the new arrangement:

Capcom is dedicated to creating great mobile games, and believes that N-Gage will allow us to bring some of our most famous franchises to the platform. Our dedication to quality and creative thinking has seen the company produce a series of ground-breaking titles, with stunning visuals and in-depth game play, never before seen on the mobile.

Likewise, Nokia Director of Third Party Publishing Gregg Sauter added that it was very important for them to have strong global partners. Quite interestingly, Sauter added:

The N-Gage platform will enable this evolution with devices that deliver enhanced graphics and a development tool kit that allows for online tournaments, communities, multiplayer games and, of course, global distribution.

The new N-Gage is expected to launch later this year, with Capcom's first batch of games slated for release next year.

 

Imagine: in less than two decades mobile phones have become capable of emulating old arcade games. And what best game to make the transition to your mobile phone than Street Fighter II?

Street Fighter II was released earlier this month, and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Street Fighter, Capcom will be releasing Street Fighter II: Champion Edition next month for Europe. The game will feature 12 characters including favorites Ryu, Ken and Chun-Li, and now also boss characters Sagat, M. Bison, Balrog and Vega.

Street Fighter II inspired a faithful following ever since its release and its characters continue to be popular video game icons. Here's to 20 years more.

 

Remember those days when you went to your local arcade to play a round of Street Fighter II? Well, for the price of US$ 6.99 you can have it on your cellular phone.

Like the classic arcade game, it allows you to select from the eight original street fighters: Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, E Honda, Blanka, Zangief, Guile and Dhalsim. After getting through the preliminaries, you have to face Vega, Sagat, Balrog, and M.Bison. The control scheme, as well as potential game slowdown, may dampen player's fighting spirits but all in all, it's a good play.

Looking back to Chart Track's statistics for the first week of July, Electronic Arts' Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PSP, DS, Wii, PC, mobile) stays on top of the all-platforms charts for the second week in a row, while UK gamers flex their nerve cells with Nintendo's More Brain Training from Dr. Kawashima which sticks to a solid second.

Activision's Shrek The Third still keeps to the third spot the week ending July 7, though Take-Two's The Darkness dips two spaces to fourth. Keeping close to another fellow horror game, Capcom's Resident Evil 4 haunts at fifth place, while happily tailing behind with a Wiimote is Wii Play from Nintendo - still strong in the charts after re-entering the top ten.

Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas still relies on lucky number seven to stay up the charts, with Microsoft's Forza Motorsport 2 slowly revving down from sixth to eighth. Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End slips to ninth place from eighth (giving new meaning to nine pieces of eight, we reckon), while Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training from Nintendo re-enters the charts and continues to twist noggins at closing number 10.
