i would LOVE it to be on wii but i doubt it will happen, which is why i made a bet with routsoutmanman. i hope im wrong though!

I hope you're wrong too :)



THE ONLY ONLINE PETITION I SEE THAT WILL WORK IS:

The Bionic Commando one. Since Capcom themself said if their is enough interest shown by people they would do it.

here is is: http://www.petitiononline.com/0819/petition.html

However they never said anything like that about RE5 so as much as I would Love Wii controls I will still get a HD version of the game. Most likely PS3. Havent decided which way to go 360 or ps3. It all depends on what happens with MGS4.

However after seeing that thread by leo-j with that rpg in next gen cell shading i'm starting to swing towards ps3.

If by some change RE5 does come to wii i will get that and a HD version so I get best of both worlds.



^yeah but too bad the bionic commando one just barely passed 10,000

Capcom has acknowledged the RE5 for Wii petition so its clear it stands a chance as well.

I love the people who think naysaying this gains anything. What do you stand to lose by letting people at least try?

^theyre afraid it might go to wii

If you want to play this game, just get a PS3/X360. Face it, the game for HD consoles.

I do want to see a Wii spin-off but I would rather play the main series on the PS3/X360, because I know Capcom will take advantage of the hardware that is provided.

LOL petition.

Only way it would ever go to the wii is if DMC4 were to bomb on both PS3 and 360 and thats just not gonna happen. PS3/360 is the way to go for 3rd party these days.

Exactly. That's why the combined profits of all 3rd parties are in the red.

Been saying that for a while, eventually developers have no other option than to bring their main games to Wii. The install base of the HD-consoles isn't big enough (yet?) to account for the highly increased costs. 

Of course Resident Evil will probably sell well, although I wonder if the 360 fanbase will love the games as much as the Nintendo gamers. I think IF RE5 comes to Wii it will be exclusive. No-one is waiting for a worse looking, better playing port. That way people that love RE4Wii will say "it looks better on the other consoles, I don't buy it" and HD-owners will say "It doesn't play as nice as the Wii version, I don't buy it". Of course this remark will stir reactions, but don't forget that RE-fans are quite hardcore and want the dfinitive version of the game (look at RE4Wii sales).

I think chances are still not big, but the longer Capcom waits to release info on the game, the higher the chances of it coming to Wii IMO. 



Listen, if Capcom is willing to put Bionic Commando, a game originally conceived as a PS3 exclusive, on the Wii, then I think they can find a way to put RE5 on it.

You say RE5 being already in development for the 360/PS3 is a dissadvantage to this cause, but I say it just makes it all the easier as most of the work is already done. Don't try and pretend you know what it takes to port a game or the ability by which such a thing could happen. All you know are numbers and stats given after the fact. You're probably the same people who also said there is no way the Wii could be a success this generation and when you were proven wrong claimed it was just a fad.

There's nothing wrong with being a pesimist, but to so actively try and discourage an effort you assert is hopeless to begin with is somewhat of a contradictory act. You simply just don't want it on the Wii, plain and simple. And for those of you who do want it but doubt it will happen, what harm is it to sign the petition? Power in numbers my friends, power in numbers.
