Not had enough zombie-based fun across the last year? Did Operation Raccoon City, Resident Evil 6 and The Walking Dead leave you wanting more time with those stumbling pests? According to yet another listing unearthed before its time, more of those groaners are heading towards your screen.
It looks as if Capcom is getting ready to port Resident Evil: Revelations, a 3DS-only title, towards the console market. A listing on the Korean Ratings Board indicates the title is heading to both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Revelations received positive reviews upon its original January 2012 release. While Operation Raccoon City is hardly worth talking about, and Resident Evil 6 received mixed reviews, Revelations could be considered the most interesting Resi title of the year. Resident Evil 7 is likely to be some years away, so it makes sense Capcom would keep the franchise running with a straight port.
The publisher has provided no official response as of yet. We’ll keep you up to date as soon as we hear anything.

And no mention of the port to the dual screen console. Okey grain of salt.

Yeah. It makes no sense. That Genesis device that they use in the game is pretty much a Wii U gamepad! It's like the game is made for the Wii U but they aren't considering it?

Agreed - silly if they leave out Wii U.

Maybe a Wii U version is not listed because the console is not available in South Korea yet. If PS360 versions are real, I doubt capcom would leave Wii U out.
This game didn't do well in sales for Capcom. It definitely makes sense porting it for consoles.
Even a shit game like RE Raccon city performed better.

This doesn't surprise me too much, actually. Despite garnering decent sales on the 3DS, it seems like a game that's definitely up to console quality and where there's extra money to be made, Capcom are there.
Would be interesting to see anyway. I wonder how they'd price it.

Why would they put it on WiiU? The Nintendo core crowd will already own a 3DS and they clearly not interested in this game, putting it on WiiU would result in just as bad sales if not worse.

Vita should just buy another dog for Capcom and end this silly bickering.

This is the company that released the Resident Evil Archives games for the Wii.
Seriously, of all people you should know best how far Capcom's porting madness goes.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV (360+PS3) would outsell SSBB. I was wrong.
