Capcom announced today that Neopets Puzzle Adventure has shipped for the Nintendo Wii, so if you have been waiting on this, run to the store now and pick it up. It has been available for the PC and Nintendo DS for a few weeks now, but finally Wii owners can get in on all the puzzle actions just like everyone else.

Neopets Puzzle Adventure is an easy to play, single and multiplayer puzzle game for fans and casual gamers alike, and lets players create and develop one of 12 Neopets characters by completing quests, playing mini-games, and battling others. Players will travel through three Lands of Neopia with more than 150 quests, while collecting “PetPets” for special abilities.

The Neopets game board itself resembles a chess board, while the gameplay takes the principles of Reversi and Go, and adds new twists where the goal is to turn all of the chips on the board to your Neopet’s color.

Capcom sent us new five new screens for Resident Evil 5 today, and they basically look like more of the same. What kind of wowed everyone months ago is starting to look like old hat now. Granted, they may not be wanting to show us every area in the game, but the same ole dull grey is getting redundant.

Anyway, you can judge for yourself when you take a look at them.

Capcom has sent us two new trailers for Resident Evil 5 showing off some of the gameplay you will experience in the Warehouse and Refinery. Both videos are being and age gate, so you will have to click on the links provided below to access the trailers.

Hopefully the “early 2009″ demo that was promised yesterday will arrive sooner than we think, and we will all finally get a chance to see if all the controversy surrounding the game was for naught; and also if it will live up to expectations considering how fantastic Resident Evil 4 turned out to be.

A representative for Capcom has told MTV Multiplayer that a downloadable Resident Evil 5 demo for the PS3 and Xbox 360 should be heading to North American in early 2009. The demo was released for the Xbox 360 last week in Japan, and according to the rep, the reason it was not released here at the same time had to do with “unspecified complications” despite the Japanese version being localized in English.

The demo will include two stages which support both online and offline co-op and a single player mode. The game is expected to hit retailers on March 13 so if they are going to give us a demo, they need to do it soon.

The contents of Capcom’s  Street Fighter IV Collector’s Edition for the PS3 and the Xbox 360 have been reveled today, and for $79.99 (Amazon, GameStop, etc.) you can get some really interesting things if you are a Street Fighter fan.

The Collector’s Edition for both consoles is almost exactly the same, except that the bonus disc with a 65-minute full-length Anime movie and promotional trailers will be a Blu-ray disc for the PS3 version and the collectible figures included will be a Ryu for the PS3 and a C. Viper for the Xbox 360. The set also includes a CD soundtrack, a Udon/Prima Hint book; and 5 downloadable costumes.

Gamers who pre-order the Collector’s Edition or the regular edition of Street Fighter IV through GameStop will also receive an exclusive headband like the one worn by martial arts master Ryu while supplies last.

The game is expected to ship on February 17 so if you want in on the goodies, you better get to ordering now. Gamers interested in playing the PC version will have to wait until June 2, 2009 to join in on the fun.
