given the development time and resources, it can be an outstanding version of RE:5 even if the visuals don't match the 360/PS3 versions...schuelma said:
anything less than a mainline game in some major franchise would be disappointing at this point...
Being a mainline game would take any doubt away about the just how serious Capcom (or any 3rd party developer) is about the game.
Soul Calibur Legends just based on the fact that it wasn't Soul Calibur 4 looked like a cheap attempt to lure unsuspecting fans into buying crap. If Soul Calibur 4 (or 5 for that matter) were to be announced on Wii, no one would doubt the level of commitment from Namco on the project.
That's why a Wii version of RE:5 is so important, and why mainline games with expensive budgets and long, long development times need to be a priority for 3rd parties on Wii. If games with the resources used to create Bioshock, Call of Duty 4, MGS4, Devil May Cry 4, etc... were made on Wii the profile and hype would go through the roof (as would sales).

"Worlds away" is closer to opposite than merely "different".
basically this. i think people here underestimate the Wii's ability to reproduce RE5, though i honestly don't know how much would need to be sacrificed in order to get RE5 onto Wii, i have no doubt it's less than many people claim. either way, even if you couldn't stand the lesser graphics, there's always the HD version if you want it. i think that RE is perfectly suited to the Wii Zapper, and if that's the interesting approach, then an approach it is.Alcibiades said:
but i will reiterate: it looks like something in the Lost Planet universe. maybe something squad based unlike the original, or something to that kind of new gameplay same franchise effect.

I told you it wasn't on the Wii. Great support Capcom. Great support.

Still can't see RE5 Wii happening. A Code Veronica equivalent is still a great alternative. Technically, Code Veronica did outsell RE Zero.

yes, we have realized this by now, meaning that this Wii game is either a show surprise, or already covered within their current E3 list, which at this point is:Scrubking said:
Street fighter 4
Resident Evil 5
Bionic Commander
MotoGP
Neopets Puzzle Adventure
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Plunder
Bionic Commando Rearmed
Mobil Games
Flock
i struck out all the ones that wouldn't make sense going to Wii in some form as a "next gen favorite." this game could be SF4, RE5, or Bionic Commander, and that's Capcom's E3 list is everything. right now, the net is too large. i would love it if RE5 came to Wii, and i still expect it to an extent, but anything said cannot be answered until at least Nintendo's press conference next week. keep sharp, if Nintendo gets a voice chat solution and starts touting co-op, as CoDWaW's secretiveness on what's up with the coop mode in the Wii version suggests, RE5 is a possible game Nintendo would want to showcase, though again, nothing is written. at this point all it could be is speculation and extrapolation, both of which are uncertain.

Please be a Resident Evil other than five. I can play five with Microsoft's motion controller.

Or KB/M, since it'll get a PC port within 6 months.

First let me reiterate that the "something like that" game that was mentioned a while back was Spyborgs. There may be another game, but I honestly doubt it. Capcom already had their event and if they had some major Wii game I think they would have shown it already since they said they weren't going to be a huge presence at E3.
Second, I have no doubt that RE5 will not be coming to the Wii. Making a Wii version would be a huge undertaking and as you can see Capcom isn't about putting a lot of effort into the Wii. People need to remember that Capcom is a Japanese company, and in Japan the Wii is the undisputed king. Yet Capcom continues to pump out 360 and PS3 games all while ignoring the Wii and not making any Wii versions of their latest games.
I'm sure we'll see some more B level RE spinoffs and other fair, but it's clear that Capcom is in the HD camp and they refuse to acknowledge the Wii even after having two million sellers.

No, I"M calling it. Resident Evil 5 Wii.Linkhero1 said:I'm calling it

Lost Rising

Uh, what? What have all the different articles been teasing? It was NOT spyborgs. That is not a twist on a next-gen favorite, nor is it something completely unlike the fluffiness of Zack & Wiki. Something big is being made by Capcom for the Wii. Whether it's revealed at e3 or not, we shall see.

You really need to go back to the original post because right now you're talking out of your ass. They have another Wii game and it isn't Spyborgs. Not maybe, definitely

Do you mean other than how it looks like RE5 plays just like RE4?schuelma said:

Shut the fuck up, man. I'm going by what Svensson said, you know the VP at Capcom USA and not some fucking website. Remember when Megaman 9 was Wii exclusive? Oh wait it wasn't! Yet people here made a thread and continued to talk about it as if it were even when I tried to tell them it wasn't.
There may be another Capcom game, but saying that there definitely is one when Capcom has said nothing is plain stupid.

They've been teasing it for two months now, and the way they've written their short teasers implies that this information comes directly from Capcom, but they just can't talk about it. They also say that it should be announced by the time we read it (it hits shelves on the same day as Nintendo's conference).

The hate stems from the fact that
1. Capcom is touting this as AAA support equal to the likes of RE5, DMC4, etc when it clearly isn't
2. The game is being targeted at a younger audience after the fact that 2 mature capcom games sold over a million
Spyborgz might end up a decent game (huge might). However, throwing this at us after all of the tests and mature million sellers by Capcom, and then to insult our intelligence by touting this as AAA support that rivals that of 360 is ridiculous to say the least.

I really don't get the hate. There is a new studio behind it whose employees worked on several big games and Capcom USA will publish it. I agree that they only had to show the trailer and not screens, (the trailer was a lot more flattering then the screenshots) but arguing about a game you've never played is really a moot point. I'll just wait.
And insulting our intelligence. Overreacting man. Chill. :lol

Guys, I've had a thought. NGamer are usually bang-on with their rumours (remember Twilight Princess Wii?), so it wouldn't make sense for this one to be false. What are the possibilities of Capcom unveiling it in their press conference but not having it playable? Or...
What if they're making something for Nintendo? It would explain all the secrecy, and why there appears to be no Wii games left that Capcom have confirmed for E3. We might be seeing something in Nintendo's conference from them instead, if that's the case.

This is what third parties have done on Wii over and over and over again. Why can't people accept that they aren't going to release their high profile games on Wii? They don't have to if they don't want to, even if Wii sales break records.
God dammit. I told myself I wasn't gonna get hyped for this E3. But here it is, a mysterious project that may or may not be revealed, and may or may not be worth getting excited for if it is revealed, and I'm getting excited anyway. Happens every time, and I don't think a single one has lived up to the hype yet.

The hate for Spyborgs is ridiculous. Nobody bitched that Level 5 was putting out Layton on the DS despite the fact that it looked like a cartoon and was basically a collection of minigames, yet people are hating on Spyborgs because it looks like a cartoon and has, you know, some minigames in it at some point.

The difference is that that was hearsay, someone saying a Capcom VP told him MM9 would be exclusive. This is a QUOTE
