Barry Burton's Bass Fishing - Finally we get the full explanation about where Barry went after RE1, cameo appearances notwithstanding (he set up a stall down at the docks just outside the blast perimeter of Raccoon City). Includes the original Barry Burton voice actor who congratulates you as the 'master of bass fishing' when you get a bite.

Seriously though, RE2 in REmake-style please. Although seeing as 2 is my favourite in the series I'd take anything broadly related to it in some fashion.
 
I repeat, all sign point very, very heavily to Umbrella Chronicles 2. Lower your expectations guys, or be disappointed.

This is what I'm expecting. Cheaper work and guaranteed to make money. I wont be biting though. Umbrella Chronicles was tripe and I have no interest in paying for a sequel.

That would honestly be one of the more exciting things they could announce, to me. I loved UC quite a bit, personally... it's surprising that so many other people did not.

UC was a fun game, esp. with two people. But I had more fun with HotD tbh. And I think people just think it's a bit of a waste seeing how well pointer controls worked for RE4.

I like UC too...but I wouldn't be so excited for a sequel...really.

There's some crazy Capcom-bashing going on in this thread, which is mostly unheard of on Gaf. Is this all because of Dead Rising? Or is it just projected Wii hatred?

Capcom has earned a reputation as Capgod this gen, but it was not on the basis of their Wii releases. For example, 2009 Capcom games:

PS360:
Street Fighter IV
Resident Evil 5
Dark Void
Bionic Commando
Dead Rising 2

Wii:
Neopets Puzzle Adventure
Spyborgs
Moto GP 08
Dead Rising: Chop 'till you Drop
Monster Hunter 3

Also,

At the initial stage of development, Umbrella Chronicles' play system was similar to Resident Evil 4's. But, it's extremely difficult on Wii. Too complicated to enjoy. Wii users like easiness.

And also the fact that their last two 'hardcore' Wii games, UC and CTYD, were outsourced to Cavia and Tose respectively.

These are the reasons why few expect much from a Capcom Wii announcement.
 
Umbrella Chronicles 2 with RE2, CV, RE4 and dare I say it... RE5?

That is what I'm guessing is most likely. That's the way its sounding.

:|

Meh.

I can't believe on rail shooters actually ARE the new mini-game fest Wii mock. It was funny when it was just a joke, now not so much if this keeps going.

Comments like the one in the post above mine are an example of why no one should bother getting excited for something Wii and Capcom related.

F**k you Capcom, and f**k your tests.
 
Guess we will have to wait till next Thursday.

It is kind of depressing to see all Wii owners post: "Its Capcom, so Code Veronica Chronicles". Self forfilling prophecy indeed.

*raises hand* I loved it!!! I just....want something....more?

I know the announcement will probably be disappointing, I just can't help setting myself up for the fall.
 
Im pretty sure they are gonna give free copies of RE4 and UC, its the only way that Capcom would be willing to make Wii fans happy, better than doing some actual work.
 
Umbrella Chronicles is the one of the few Cavia games I don't like.(This is coming from a guy who played through Beatdown: Fists of Vengeance three times)
Even my frighteningly low standards are too much for that game. =(

...

How's this a self-fulfilling prophecy?
 
I hope for a new RE with Re4 controls.

But if they'd make a remake of the old ones, I want the game to have pre-rendered backgrounds and tank controls.

Yeah, wrong thing of me to say. Exsqueeze me.

What I meant to say was is that some Wii owners in general are becoming bitter and very cynical on a daily basis in terms of third party support. Every time you mention Capcom, the process will even excellerate. This thread shows it quite nicely.

I'm doing it to myself as well. Can't wait for Resident Evil Code Veronica Chronicles.
:(
 
Nah, I don't want a RE5 Wii edition. By the time it gets released I'll probably get bored of RE5 by already having finished the Ps3/X360 version.

I want something new. And good. Or a remake of the older ones.

You're probably right.

RE:UC was fun stuff, but I have absolutely no desire to buy it again.

there's no way it's this. i didn't even like umbrella chronicles. capcom wouldn't do that to me.
 
All the Gamecube Resident Evil ports as New Play Control versions to Wii :lol

Seriously I can't get myself excited about this. Wake me if it's a new game. Kill me in my sleep if it's a lightgun/on-rails experience.

Maybe this is true for a Capgod thread about wii games but only because they seem to have one of the weakest 3rd part Wii lineups around. Sega and MMV are mopining the floor with their offerings.
 
I'd like to see some more new Capcom series games. Zack and Wiki and Dead Rising were nice additions (not talking about Wii version of Dead Rising), but a new original survival horror wii title would be cool. Just build off RE4 early version and make an original title.
 
UC2 with RE2 and CV levels would fit the two hints Dahlgren gave us.


I'm still torn on what to think of UC, I've never played a lightgun shooter quite like it, with its comparably slow gameplay and emphasis on pinpoint accuracy and methodical shooting. While a thoroughly solid game, I enjoyed it mostly because of the nostalgia caused by revisiting all the different RE games (+ the added behind the scenes material), I suppose.

Probably would've been better if headshots weren't so damn hard/didn't have slow down.

Honestly, with you in particular, I almost get the impression that you want third-party support not to improve just so you can keep whining about it.
Not at all. I just subscribe to the idea that as a pessimist, you're either proven right or pleasantly surprised. I'm done with assuming good support will actually arrive.
 
CV could be turned into an UC style game really easily since the backgrounds were rendered in real time.

Isnt there a lightgun arcade game based on Code: Veronica that does precisely this?

Even easier for Capcom!
 
It's capcom, it's probably a remake of resident evil 3.

I doubt it will be Resident Evil 5: Crop till you drop.
