Award-Winning Game Continues to Be Strong Seller Into the Holiday Season

SAN MATEO, Calif. – Oct. 30, 2007 – Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that Resident Evil® 4 Wii Edition for the Wii™ video game system from Nintendo has shipped over one million units worldwide. The game carries an “M” for mature rating from the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) and a suggested retail price of $29.99.

Since the release of the first Resident Evil game in 1996, the series has shipped over 33 million units (as of October 30, 2007) and is valued as one of Capcom’s strongest and most original intellectual properties (IP). RE4 Wii Edition retains the intensity of the original Resident Evil 4 while bringing players a totally new play experience through the use of the Wii Remote. In this way, by retaining the interest of the core fanbase and expanding outward toward new casual players through the Wii platform, Capcom has broken the 1 million units milestone, and successfully captured the attention of a new set of users.

It is Capcom’s on-going plan to aggressively pursue the continued creation of unique and inspired creations for the Wii, including such titles as Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, which is set to go on sale on November 13th, followed by We Love Golf™! in 2008.

To stay at the cutting edge of the next generation of gaming, Capcom is committed to researching and developing new processes and techniques specific to each of the unique platforms to create a revolutionary gaming experience. Building on the success of last year’s Dead Rising™ and Lost Planet™ for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, both of which were million-sellers, Capcom’s success at shipping over 1 million units of Resident Evil 4 on the Wii reflects the strong, creative R&D facilities which have allowed the company to be a success on every major next-gen platform.

Resident Evil® 4 is one of the highest rated games on Game Rankings.com and Metacritic.com, garnering dozens of awards and nominations for its amazing game play and incredible re-invention of the “survival-horror” genre. As Leon Kennedy, players will explore a town overrun by cultists, mutants and mind-controlled villagers, using the Wii Remote to aim, fire, slash and avoid oncoming adversaries with intuitive motions and movements. RE4 Wii Edition also contains the additional content included in the PlayStation® 2 computer entertainment system version of the game.

ADVANCED STEREO IMAGING SYSTEM PROVIDES SUPERIOR SOUND

Saitek, a leading designer and manufacturer of consumer electronic products for PC and gaming, has announced the launch of its new range of PC speakers. The new speakers have been designed to deliver a truly explosive sound in a compact, convenient and stylish design. 
There are three speaker systems in the new range – the 3D 210, 3D 380 and 3D 590 – all incorporating ASIS, Saitek’s advanced stereo imaging system, which delivers precise, distortion-free, stereo sound. 

Advanced Stereo Imaging System (ASIS)

Saitek’s Advanced Stereo Imaging System provides pinpoint stereo accuracy, particularly important in PC gaming to enhance the atmosphere and immerse the gamer deeper into the game. And when listening to music, tracks played through ASIS are brought to life, allowing the listener to hear different instruments precisely and clearly in the stereo mix as though the musicians were playing in the same room. 

Unique Design

The speakers are designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and flexible to use. They have a smooth, curved finish with metallic black and silver colouring and can be positioned in a variety of ways (multiple orientation) to suit the user’s environment - particularly important for PC gaming where space may be at a premium. 

Superior Sound

Saitek’s 3D speakers produce a crisp and clean sound over a wide acoustic range due to the innovative design that limits the distance between the speaker bowl and casing, minimising sound distortion. All models in the range also feature an advanced bass contour control which can be customised to room acoustics to provide superior audio definition. And Neodymium drive units, used in all Saitek sound systems, provide superior sound over a full range of volume or bass levels. “These are speakers designed for all modern day computer usage, perfect for music and gaming,” says Jignisha Patel, Saitek marketing executive. “They sound fantastic and are great to look at with a sleek and sexy design, perfect for any household or office.”

3D 210 – SRP £19.99

These compact 2.0 speakers pack 10W of sound and are perfect for use as travel speakers, connecting to laptops, PCs and mobile audio devices.

3D 380 – SRP £34.99

The middle of the range 2.1 system is compact yet powerful with 80W of power and enhanced bass response from the ported woofer enclosure.

3D 590 – SRP £49.99

The 3D 590 has 90W of power with two double drive satellites and a woofer unit for powerful sound, and a wired remote with fingertip control for added convenience.

All the setups connect to PC, Mac and mobile audio devices via a 3.5mm jack input.
