Resident Evil 4: 25 Mind-Blowing Things You Didn't Know

25. Creator Would "Cut His Own Head Off" If The Game Released On PS2

Resident Evil 4 was part of a slate of titles designed to boost hardware sales of the Nintendo GameCube. The Capcom Five, as they were known, were exclusives for the little purple box and RE4 was among them.

However, with a masterpiece on their hands and the Cube's relatively small install base, the company wanted to bring the title to PlayStation 2.

Mikami vehemently opposed the idea, threatening to quit Capcom if it went ahead and saying in an interview that he would "cut his own head off" if it happened.

Considering that he couldn't stop the inevitable, we have to assume he was being factitious. Still, to make fun of this, the director's next title Godhand would reference this by include a racing dog by the name of "Mikami's Head".
