With 1.5 billion apps download in one year, iPhone app store could possibly be described as the most successful business model of near times! Nokia and other companies are now planning their own app store as they don’t want to be left out.

Gaming industry has traditionally stuck to the conventional modes: PC or consoles. It’s only now that they are realizing the great missed potential of iPhone. It’s this realization that must have compelled Capcom to announce that one it’s best selling game Resident Evil 4 will hit iPhone app store pretty soon.

RE4 was leaked to Japan’s App Store but was quickly pulled and it’s believed that it will first hit the japanese app store.

Capcom has confirmed the release on twitter:

News from Capcom Mobile: RE4 will be coming to iPhone end of July beginning with Japan, rest of world to follow shortly thereafter. Woo!
