"Q: We gave Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition an excellent score. Why isn't Capcom bringing RE5 to Wii? As we seen with that game, impressive graphics can be done on that platform as well.

A: Decisions surrounding the RE5 project were taken a long time ago and they needed to choose quickly on which platform they wanted to develop it. They haven't decided if they will port RE5 on Wii yet. So in a way this game (RE4:Wii) will help us to test the market, to see if developing this genre on this platform is interesting. The decision is not made yet."

More on RE:UC : They're still looking into how they could use other Wiimote functionalities or the Nunchuck in the game. It will be more than just a simple light-gun game,

Also some big news

Masachika Kawata has expressed interest in remaking other Resident evil titles (of the first three) for the Wii using the RE4 engine.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=170056

If this turns out to be true, and Wii gets RE1,RE2, RE3remade with the RE4 engine and RE5 on Wii then it's going to KICK ASS. Also there will be more info on RE5 very soon...

I wouldn't mind but i probably wouldn't get just because of the addition of "wagle wagle" controls. Sorry, but i'm a graphics whore :P

Whoever did that interview has horrible grammar...

Anyway, I do agree that Capcom definitely is testing the market with Wii to see if it would be a smart move to put either more RE games on the platform or possibly put RE5 on the Wii. RE5 is one of those games that while it technically can't be ported, it can still be done on the Wii, considering Capcom has so much experience with Nintendo hardware... they can definitely make it still look good regardless of the downgrade.

Besides, I just bought RE4: Wii Edition, and the controls work pretty well.

If RE1-3 get remade with the RE4 engine... I would definitely take RE:UC and REmake 1-3 over RE5. We still know nothing about RE5 so being hyped about it is kind of useless.

i doubt it. i don't doubt those remakes, but RE5... nope.. If anything it will be just super watered down and probably worse than RE4 because they would use the 360 version and "break" it to fit in the wii.

you never know with crazy capcom these days.

in all seriousness though, id guess if re4: wii and re: uc sell well enough, you might see a proper spinoff at one stage in the consoles lifecycle.

Do you realize how OLD that pic is? RE5 was announced over a year ago, we haven't heard ANYTHING regarding it since then. What makes you so convinced that that is even in game?

You'd rather play 3 old games over the latest one? RE5 is worth hyping on title alone. Its a huge franchise and after the success of 4 its only going to get even better. Look at how they've upgraded GTA IV. Whats possible on the new hardware is incredible and its only going to be more exciting with games ilke RE5 and DMC4 added to the mix.

But...you enjoy your old games + the light gun thing.

People just DON'T get it do they? RE5 is being developed to look amazing. Capcom even said the game is not due out until Q4 2008 at the EARLIEST. They want to make the game look super realistic because it's a HORROR game and horror games need VISUAL representation to stand out.

Look at REremake on GC for it's time it had amazing graphics even now they look great and it made the game far more scarier than original. RE5 will push "fightning" and "scary" to a whole new level. RE4 on GC raised the bar in console visuals, the game looked amazingly good and still does(although not as much). RE5 will raise the bar once again. If you think you've seen the best looking games on 360/PS3 now, you are clearly in for a surprise, these consoles will dish out games that look even better 2-3 years time.

Indeed I would enjoy playing 4 games over one, you are telling me you wouldn't? I have never played RE2 or RE3 and have not even seen a copy of REmake for the Gamecube. The only memories I have of the old RE's is from RE on the PS.

Hyping a game like RE5 is as hypocritical as hyping Sadness.

Oh, so playing old games sucks, is what your trying to say? Even though there are tons of old games that are classics and are still worth playing today. For example, the original RE's., 1-3. Now let's say they were updated, and made to use the wiimote, than I'd be intrested in purchasing them considering I've never played them for very long. There are probably a bunch of other people who haven't played it and it's always fun to play those games. But.... enjoy your old game + new graphics. See, the logic work the same way ;).

It was never stopped. The "co-developer" (not actually a large part of the development team) dropped out and the original dev team are still looking for a publisher. Sadness has more of a chance to see the light of day then Project H.A.M.M.E.R.

I don't actually believe that, I was just showing that Bread_or_Decide's logic is very flawed. But yea, I can see capcom re-making the original RE series for the Wii but I see no way it will get RE5.

Damn, it looked like it had potential. I'm surprised no one has picked up the game yet. It looks very creepy and very original just from the artwork and the story.

How do they not care about hardcore gamers? They care about all gamers, from hardcores to casuals to non-gamers. And I am guessing your definition of "hardcore games" comes from the blood, violence, sex and language section of definitions, right?

I definately hope they do this. I played RE4 before trying RE 2 and 3, and it was just impossible. Once you do the RE4 engine, you can't go back.

If Capcom released a bundle of RE 1, 2, and 3 for $50, I'd be all over that.

Fourth, actually. RE: Deadly Silence was a remake of RE1 for the DS.

If that rumor about the RE 1-3 remakes is true then that's great for me cause I chose not to play them because of the control scheme! Hope RE5 gets to the Wii too.

So caring about hardcore gamers is not defined by the games, but by if the system they're selling is a Xbox 360.

Best part of the whole entire passage! RE4 proved that the wii can handle that type of gameplay perfectly.

What does that have to do with hardcore games? The online system is coming. For a company who hates online, Mario Strikers Charged is supposedly excellent. A built in HDD would be nice yes. Demos would be nice yes. Wallpapers and achievements?

So technically, you want Nintendo to just copy the 360 experience and put it with the Wiimote... did I get that right?

Oh, so a clone of Xbox Live. Basically, you want for Nintendo to be Microsoft. :|luigigreen


Regardless of what those features are and who implemented them, they're undeniably targeted at the hardcore gamer. MS basically came out and said "all you guys who play games all the time, we're gonna have some cool stuff for you!".

Nintendo, on the other hand, goes out of their way to make sure everything on the Wii is non-threatening for those who don't play games all the time. You've got friend codes to protect the kiddies, a simple and intuitive controller for the older folks, and games like Wii sports that families can play together. I mean thats great and all for the non-gamers and whatever, but what does that do for me?

[QUOTE="luigigreen"]Oh, so a clone of Xbox Live. Basically, you want for Nintendo to be Microsoft. :|Teufelhuhn



Regardless of what those features are and who implemented them, they're undeniably targeted at the hardcore gamer. MS basically came out and said "all you guys who play games all the time, we're gonna have some cool stuff for you!".

Nintendo, on the other hand, goes out of their way to make sure everything on the Wii is non-threatening for those who don't play games all the time. You've got friend codes to protect the kiddies, a simple and intuitive controller for the older folks, and games like Wii sports that families can play together.

Why should Nintendo be penalized for not focusing on a single small niche group? It's pretty clear that down that path leads ruin.

They should be penalized because I'm the one keeping score. :wink:

There *better* be more RE games on the Wii, because I'm playing RE4 right now and I can honestly say it's one of the best games I've ever played. The Wii controls are perfect, and I can't stop playing.

I actually rented the game from Gamefly, but liked it so much that I bought it. Fantastic game, here's hoping to some remakes.
