RUMOR: Capcom Anounces New Resident Evil for Wii at "Captivate 2010"

[QUOTE="Wikipedian"]

I'm totally for a remake of Resident Evil 2 with Resident Evil 4 gameplay.

Any AAA effort in 2009 would have been a huge win for any company. Capcom has certainly made some huge mistakes for Wii, but they are still one of the better advocates for the system

This much I agree with. In fact, it's probably possible to make the argument that Capcom is still the best third party publisher the Wii has seen, especially with its support early on in the system's life. Still, much like with the rest of the group, they could be doing so much more with the platform if someone within really dedicated itself to a top-notch Wii project that isn't setback by compromise or looking for a quick and easy way to make a sale.

There is still time, though, so I think it's fair to remain hopeful that a positive turn will finally occur.

I wouldn't mind seeing another Resident Evil game where both ammo and enemies are scarce, as opposed to Resident Evil 4 where enemies commonly drop ammo and you get swarmed by them like all the time.

But yeah, I definitely would not like to see a reprise of the tank-like controls of the Resident Evils before 4.

I didn't say I was holding my breath, but I try to have at least a trace of optimism when I can. lol At this point I'm very aware of both the circumstance of the Wii and where third party publishers are in general; if a major game of AAA impact was going to come, it wouldn't have taken it three and a half years for it to come out. I've said it several times before in the past, but the only game I'm expecting to reach such a status on the Wii that isn't from Nintendo now is Dragon Quest X, and since announcing it, Square-Enix has been MIGHTY quiet about it, which makes me start to ponder about that game, as well.

Still, this is a gen that has had its share of surprises already, so I can't shut out the possibility of seeing another one entirely. :P

Oh, I don't know, I thought the door animations actually legitimately added to the suspense, especially that one time in Resident Evil 2 where you open a door and then HOLY **** HOLY **** ZOMBIES

Not sure what you mean by "item boxes".

Oh, those things.

Well, I prefer them to needing to just throw things away, myself. :P

Cool, I guess, although I'm kind of hoping for a new game rather than mostly just a retelling of old games. They've covered like almost all of the Resident Evils in their Chronicles by now, so they ought to have no old material to rehash anymore. :P

GabuEx

I'll keep an eye out for it but Im probably done with RE since Shinji Mikami isnt directing the series anymore.

so no news today means this was just a random rumor? or any chances that they just didn`t decided to announced or something x.x i want a new resident evil game on the wii like RE4 capcom is evil. *sighs*

Fake. If we're lucky though, we will get Dino Crisis (which is awesome btw)

nuh uh they haven't retold 4 yet.Serraph105

Good point, they could always give us "Resident Evil 4: Rail Shooter Edition".

"In 2009, a forum member on Vandal Online claimed to have information about the next Resident Evil title for Wii. When the message was posted, the game supposedly had been in development for more than a year. According to the "insider", it would be a spin-off, but it would feature a mix of third-person exploration/tension elements and on-rails shooting segments.

Fast-forward a few months later (Thursday) and another member says that the game was at Captivate this past week. Obviously, none of this means anything until we receive a confirmation. There is a small amount of credibility to the rumor, however, as the information comes from the same person who leaked details about Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. It should also be noted that Capcom recently said that the company has unannounced games in the works for the Wii/DS and that fans should look out for Captivate for announcements. Oh, and there's apparently a big announcement coming this month. But, still, I repeat what I said earlier – Take this as a huge grain of salt until next week."

Thought you all would find this interesting. Hopefully this is true and we will get a somewhat true Resident Evil experience on the Wii sometime in the near future.

How about a completely re-imagined reboot of the series? I think they really messed up the story line.

? RE4 is a side plot, NOTHING TO DO with the main series ...RE5 I assume is the continuation of the main RE series...so how is it mess up?..you didn't like the path the story took so its messed up? eh?

[QUOTE="UbiquitousAeon"][QUOTE="heath005"] To me, the story is shoot the zombies with the old awkward controls till your play it on the Wii and point and shoot while fighting the zombie/cameramaxgil2

As much as i don't like Remakes and i prefer a new game, i have to agree with this, RE2 is my favorite RE of all time and it could very fun to play it again in RE4 style.

There wont be a on rails RE4 since the original is on Wii.

Bleh but there are so many versions of that game (5??) I don't think they would make yet another version of it. dtno132

Capcom loves to make different versions of the same RE game. RE1 had the PS1 original version, PS1 director's cut, PS1 dualshock edition, ds port, sega saturn port , PC port and the gamecube remake

So there's still no news? ..no new RE for Wii?...

maxgil2

No.

Youwon't know if it's going to be another rail shooter, until you try it out. Lol, but yeah a survival horror or a first person shooter will make a change. Maybe make the graphics a bit better then it will be a great game.
