I played REmake on Dolphin at high resolution.
More polygons are assolutely imperative.
And I agree that Julia Voth Jill is best Jill.

$50 for a barebones 3DS port isn't an excuse? Lol.
Yeah it's not like 5/6 where they revive your ass over and over. They're invincible so you don't get cheap game overs like RE5 but they do absolutely miserable damage (they will maybe rarely be able to kill a single Ooze after a long time). I want to say you're alone more than half the time? But I honestly don't remember because the partners just aren't very noticeable.

Will get on PC.
I think it's because RE5 and RE6 didn't show up on a Nintendo system.
Resident Evil 5 not coming to the Wii made sense since the Wii couldn't handle the game, Capcom didn't really give an amazing reason as to why Resident Evil 6 didn't come to Wii U, but I wouldn't be shocked if RE6 came to Wii U if Capcom makes a gold edition.
But no portable 3D Jill's ass.
Not looking to buy this again unless the extras are that good, and even then I'll wait for a sale.
But if you haven't got it, get it. Way more replay value than RE6.
If you have a 3DS (have no clue if you do or not or maybe you know someone with one), there's a demo on the eShop.
I'm honestly too lazy to go searching for any happy dance, high five, or other "excitement" gifs, but let's just say I am literally dancing in my house, and completely over the fucking MOON from this news.
PC?

Oh man! Glad I held out from grabbing the 3DS version. Guess I might have a good RE game for my PS3 following RE5 after all.
No biggie, i can't play AND drive at the same time.

I don't own a 3DS nor know anyone who has one. :/ I'm not much of a portable system player. Hopefully there's a demo on PSN.

The only reason I'm surprised there's a Wii U version is because so many posts seemed to have insider knowledge indicating there would be no such release.
Otherwise I would have fully expected it. Capcom is throwing pretty good support (lack of RE6 aside) at the Wii U.

I think the only surprise is that there's no Vita version. Don't get me wrong - it makes absolute and total sense to pass the system up, but considering it was made in framework mobile it seems like it would be an easier port.

I'd say it's pretty nice of them to not port RE6, really.

Hey those on-rails games were actually pretty good.
Darkside Chronicles was cool (even the new scenarios they made for it were awesome), and we all need more light gun shooters in our lives.
You do have a partner most of the time, but they're invincible, have infinite ammo, and won't get in your way at all. Basically, they're there just to take the heat off of you.

The game uses the partner system in that it gives you all of the advantage of having an A.I. character fighting on your side with none of the disadvantages.
It's virtually impossible for them to be a hindrance (aside from getting in your way while running/aiming.)
I think capcom is playing out an experiment here. If this game picks up and sells shit load then we will not be seeing any portable RE any time soon. They will say that RE formula is not fit for a handheld! What beats me is that why did they not take a chance on the vita? It would had sold just enough to recoup the cost of porting if it was sold digitally! Also would had helped to gauge the market on vita! Just look at JAW Stranger's Wraith. It was ported by one guy and that too without overtime and recovered its porting cost in 1st month! Unless there is a deal with nintendo or they have decided that no more RE for handhelds!
I will be getting this on PC!

an HD port with enhanced lighting, new difficulty, new characters, new enemies and revamped co-op mode with new weapons/skills is barebones now?
good to know.

One new enemy lol, and the graphics are basically the original game in HD. "Enhanced lighting."
No new side story, no bonus story content, hell not even extra confirmed Raid levels.
Bare. Bones. And it's being sold for double what you can find the 3DS version for. It just really stings.
I'm glad others can play it if they want to, but I'd have been much more amicable to this in its current state at even $40. At least then they could say they're just matching the 3DS version's MSRP.

I'd love to get this on 360, since I have a ton of MSP and could just use those, but damn do I need some games for my Wii U...

1 new enemy and improvements to the existing raid mode (new weapons and skills). Yep, still barebones for full price.
You seem to be an insider.
In JP GC also sold better launch aligned. PSV sales trajectory crossed DC's but I haven't kept up with it so I don't know if it's still lagging behind.
There's only so much they can do. At least here in Germany it's not lacking marketing (it's seriously lacking retail presence though). It got an exclusive game in the Uncharted series and had a launch line-up which was considered one of the best around here. During Christmas it had some insane deals going and it was backed by two of the most powerful non-Nintendo IPs (AC and CoD), each having an exclusive game (in all probability with the help/monies from Sony). Sure CoD was of dubious quality but the name alone should have a lot of pull in the mass market.

That is a great idea, hopefully someone at capcom connects these money making dots. I do feel that the price is a bit hefty but I am very much looking to experience this highly rated entry into the resident evil series. I may wait on a price drop if an immediate purchase is not warranted with the bonus content but at least I will be able to experience this without having to buy a 3DS (nothing wrong with the system I just dont buy into the portable experience anymore with the advent of game capable cell phones).

i agree about the price. i think it should've been budget priced as well. but if they added stuff over the original, it's not bare bones.
bare bones would be just a port, nothing added.

This basically is nothing added. It's the least Capcom could really get away with, heck, they may not even get away with this little.

RE6 Final Hope is so obviously Wii U bound. I just wonder if it'll happen before or after Revelations UE?
I don't really think CoD sells systems. It's available everywhere!

Of course, they could do more, but this isn't what I would call "bare bones" IMO.

Raid mode co-op is fun. Just you can't do the full story co-op or anything like RE5 or 6.
I would LOVE a port of Mercs 3D with more characters.
Yes.

Since I never bought it for the 3DS because I can't find it anymore, I like this announcement.
Will buy for Wii U

ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
I know I'm late but 8-10 hours. But it's a better game overall than RE5 and RE6.
Ok, after the initial disappointment I've tought about it and, having already enjoyed a lot the game on the 3DS:
I could buy it at a lower price as was for RE4 Wii edition that was priced 30 euros, if they add:
GamePad scanner
GamePad map and inventory (confirmed)
New content/mode (confirmed, it seems that they changed also the ending of the game, in addition to the new enemy and to the new raid mode and characters)
Offtv feature
so, let' wait and see ONM details
