I have played both on PC but it's a must buy if you haven't.

 

[Pandy]

Zero interest.

"Gyro aiming."

Oh, hello there.

Oh, hello there.

Never seen such a positive thread about gyro controls! I guess RE4 Wii Edition resonated with a lot of us.

 

[NlAF]

Very interesting hmm

 

[Scoops]

I am SO in for this.

 

[Jigorath]

Okay, probably buying this now.

 

[ajjow]

Im buying this now...

 

[Metalmarc]

Oh I forgot this was coming, sweet.

Will add to Switchlist.

 

[Neptonic]

RE5 would work so god damn well like that.

That's how I played RE5 solo on PC lol, I was just so used to the RE4 controls

 

[pretty done]

BotW bow aiming made me a believer

I just hate the way Splatoon does it. I only like motion when it activates on a button press. I can't deal with that shit being on all the time. Analog stick + gyro is so much better than just gyro.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Doesn't seem like a barebones port then. Bummed Revelations 2 is a download code though.

They can afford two carts in Asian territories but not in the US. Which is weird to me.

 

[fabricated backlash]

Me too lol. I just can't play Resident Evil with standard 3rd person controls.

 

[James Scott]

Gyro aiming should make it the best console release.
Bummer they couldn't get it out on time, though. Also, not great entries in the franchise. Didn't like what I played of 2 and Revelations is only ok. I think they messed up the wii u port since it felt pretty bad to aim there.

 

[Nosgotham]

Like with every RE title, I will be rebuying this for the umpteenth time.

yupppp.

 

[ryanofcall]

Ouff gyro aiming is really tempting to double dip on both!

How much are they in Japan?

 

[yuoke]

I was hoping for a release before Halloween. Would have really enjoyed playing this for Halloween. Oh well, will still pick it up and enjoy it but it would have been perfect for Halloween.

Edit: I wonder if there will be an English Language cover anywhere in Asia that has both games on cart. May consider importing like I did for I Am Setsuna if so.

Would have been really bad timing with mario.

Oh yea, I totally forgot about the terrible deadzones introduced in the console ports. Hopefully that's fixed...

 

[Metalmarc]

Will the aiming be like Resi Evil 4 on the Wii? Or is gyro aiming with the Joycons different, haven't tried it yet.

 

[Jonneh3003]

There's no sensor bar so it's gyro aiming oppose to IR aiming. It will be like Breath of the Wild.

 

[yukimeans_snow]

The new Claire is voiced by Palutena, btw. That automatically makes her the ultimate RE waifu.

The fact that you said NEW Claire should disqualify her as ultimate RE waifu. I miss old Claire's voice...

 

[Neff]

I'll buy it if it has the laser sight in the first one

 

[TheMoon]

Wonder how the local co op would be with one joy con...like how would aiming work? Unless it's gyro only. Interesting nonetheless

Have you never played Resident Evil 4 or 5?

Need REmake + RE0 collection first tbh.

This. They love porting so much, they better get on this!

 

[franklyshankly]

Can you buy them separately? I played the first on PC but never got around to the second.

Oh I see you can digitally. Very cool.

 

[Gotdatmoney]

There's no sensor bar so it's gyro aiming oppose to IR aiming. It will be like Breath of the Wild.

The way the opening reads it seems like it's talking about split joy cons ala RE4:Wii. Doesnt sound like BOTW like controls to me.

 

[Jakoo]

Just so I am clear--is Gyro controls like Splatoon? Or is it "point at the screen" controls like Red Steel? (which I don't even know if you can do with the Switch?)

 

[7roject28]

Have them on Steam but will probably get this. Played through 2 but not 1. Now they need to port over HD Remake of 1 and 2, even though I already have those on Steam also.

 

[James Scott]

BOTW can be played with split joy con.
The right joy con controls gyro

Just so I am clear--is Gyro controls like Splatoon? Or is it "point at the screen" controls like Red Steel? (which I don't even know if you can do with the Switch?)

Probably more like Zelda. Press ZL->pointer is set to the center and gyro is activated

 

[Jonneh3003]

Switch technically can do point at the screen (see World of Goo) but there's nothing to keep track of the motion so it desyncs quickly. That's not so much of a problem with games like Resident Evil where gyro only activates while you're aiming but I would imagine it's more like Breath of the Wild/Splatoon. Pointing doesn't work so well without a sensor bar.

 

[Dominator]

$20 each? Will rebuy every game again if 0, 1, 4, 5, and 6 come out also.

Hmm. I hope they keep Gyro using the grip as well then.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Isn't gyro and motion aiming two different things? I wouldn't describe RE4 on the Wii as gyro aiming.

 

[dancrane212]

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

Resident Evil Revelations 1+2 on Switch feature new Joy-Con controls for knifing, aiming & reloading. Aiming is a bit different from RE4 Wii

Instead of the RE4 cursor, apparently Revelations 1+2 Switch let you use the Joy-Cons to auto aim at an enemy. #ResidentEvil

You can auto-aim at another enemies by moving the Joy-Con in the direction of that enemy in Revelations 1+2 Switch.

 

[Indelible]

Really enjoyed both games, I might double dip on Switch if these ports are well done.

 

[MaverickHunterX]

Has the rumor about individual Japanese/Asian physical releases been confirmed yet?

 

[Gotdatmoney]

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

That's awful.

How fucking hard is it to copy BOTW?

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

That does not sound good at all.

 

[FiveSide]

Would it be possible for both players in Rev 2 local co-op to use gyro aiming at the same time? As in, would the Switch theoretically support that? Don't have a Switch so I'm not sure exactly how the Joy-Con features work

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

This sounds terrible to be honest. What in the world were they thinking?

Hopefully there's some additional clarification and this isn't actually the way it works.

 

[Kurtofan]

i'm seeing a typo in the thread title

 

[Jorok Goldblade]

Headshot Edition rises again!

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

LMAO what is this shit.

Is it so hard just to do it like Revelations on 3DS?

Bloody Capcpom.

 

[TheMoon]

Isn't gyro and motion aiming two different things? I wouldn't describe RE4 on the Wii as gyro aiming.

gyro aiming is motion aiming but all motion aiming is not automatically gyro aiming

RE4Wii uses IR pointer (sensor bar) for motion aiming
RER1+2 (like splatoon, wind waker hd, etc) use the gyro sensor for motion aiming

edit: welp... weird implementation (re: cvxfreak comments)

@cvxfreak 4h4 hours ago
Unfortunately, like other regions, the JP ver. of Revelations 2 will be a download code only. ”BIOHAZARD REVELATIONS COLLECTION" is ¥4990.

 

[IronicSonic]

Nice. I have REvelations 2 on my backlog. This could be the opportunity

Rev 2 was very well recieved (for what is an episodic release) REV 1 was mixed

 

[James Scott]

Nice to know Capcom can mess up a simple thing like this

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

You wouldn't be able to do it with a single joy-con.

 

[Jawmuncher]

LOL

Get that shit out of my face capcom

 

[Pinky]

Via cvxfreak. Aiming is not like RE4 apparently.

Welp, this sounds fucking horrible. Hype deflated.

Not double dipping now. Great work Capcom.
