Unofficial Resident Evil 4 art gives Leon unofficial Wii accessory

PEGA the company cashing in on “immersion accessories” like Wii boxing gloves, the shark gun and a pack of swords has their own take on the Wii Zapper. Their device mounts the nunchuck underneath the barrel, which would probably make it a pain to use for Ghost Squad.

That doesn’t matter because they unwillingly drafted a popular video game icon to model their toy. Their promotional poster features Resident Evil star Leon Kennedy standing adjacent to some of the villagers. I haven’t been able to locate the exact character art from Capcom with Leon pointing a rifle, but the picture below looks similar. Leon’s hair is placed differently, but his hands look relatively in the same place.

That is exactly the same Leon character model. He's just leaned a little bit forward in the top picture and his hair is even more ridiculously emo than before. *shivers in disgust*

Boycott Gamestop

Looks like they may have *stretched* Leon's hair for some vain argument that it's no longer the same copyrighted image.

Dunno what function the nunchuk would have under there, but when you're dealing with a company named PEGA you stop asking questions.
