Can you read Japanese? Cause it'll be that language, not English. I really wanted a physical release. Its Okami HD/RE 4 HD all over again.
This game on the WiiU would actually be cool, the touch screen map integration etc.
I'll buy it. I don't have a gamecube or a wii anymore and I desperately want to play that gem again. If it turns out that the 16:9 res sucks, I'll switch over to 4:3 - what is the problem here?
When movies release a remastered edition, that means they went back, scanned the film again and got a higher-res image.
When music releases a remastered album, that means they went back to the raw files, twiddled their knobs and mixed the audio again. The definition of remaster: "to make a new master audio recording, now usually digital, from (an earlier recording), to produce compact discs or stereo records with improved sound reproduction."
When games release a remastered video game, I expect them to render what they can at higher resolutions, and recreate what they can't. Otherwise, it's a port.
This HD Remaster is basically releasing a DVD copy of a film on Blu-Ray - but before they do, they throw a few filters over the top. Not only is it worse than the original, but it's in no way appropriate to call it a remaster.
All you fuckers better buy this so Capcom knows that classic RE games are viable and we get a REmake 2 or another game in that style.
Please tell me I can just play in 4:3 and not have to deal with this pan and scan bullshit.
All the screens released today are labeled as current gen from Capcom. No next-gen shots yet AFAIK.
Oh cool a new Resident E-OH WAIT. It's another re-release of the Resident Evil remake for the gamecube with updated graphics. Hooray! Excellent! Fantastic!
Just kidding. I'll pass on this.
This may be small consolation to Wii U owners, but you do at least have this game for your system.
And honestly, it's not like you're missing out on some amazing new upgrade here.
Looks good to me in the screens considering what they had to work with. Hopefully the controls aren't crap (and we get a port of RE Zero with non-crap controls next) because this game oozed atmosphere. Can't wait to replay it.

Here's hoping the ps4 version features even more detailed characters.
Weren't the original controls excellent? Generally when I go into LTTP REmake threads, people are praising the tank controls.
So maybe the 2015 date for the other versions is because they're doing more work on it to be better?
I took some screenshots of REmake in Wii emulator of similar scenes like the official screenshots. Here's what I got:

There's definitely a huge improvement with the character models, and the shading/lighting on the characters is almost entirely different. The new lighting may stand out more in places, but it definitely looks much nicer.
I don't think "maybe" is even needed at this point. They'd be total morons if they don't.

The least we can ask for is a straight port. Would that look terrible in HD? Guess how bad this "HD Remaster" they're pimping will look! Even worse!
It's pretty much the best implementation of tank controls IMO.Weren't the original controls excellent? Generally when I go into LTTP REmake threads, people are praising the tank controls.
There's definitely more detail. Look at the creases on the pants.That's not more detail, that's higher contrast.
From super excited to disappointed in 5 seconds. Fuck you Capcom!
Jesus, this fucking company can't even do a proper remaster nowadays.
