What Benga said....a 360 is now cheaper than a Wii and has the games you´re looking for, trestres.

 

Someone who played RE4 on the Wii will not pleased to play Re5 with Last-Last-Gen gamepad mechanics ont he Xbox/PS3.

True.

I own a 360 and a Wii and believe me, I'd much faster buy RE5 for the Wii than for the 360. Then I'd watch the title screen on youtube.

I agree, but that doesn't warrant a daily emo thread about "how 3rd parties are ignoring the Wii" by Trestres.

 

 

Agree with you there. I'd prefer to play it with precision controls, and I'd also like trestres to shut up unless there is good reason.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Capcom is bringing one of their biggest Franchises MH III, to the Wii so they definately not ignoring this platform.

I do think that we will see a Wii RE game later this generation, maybe not a continuation of the main story but they cant just ignore a console that loves RE games (With RE 4 and UC selling extremely well).

Hey, I´d personally love a RE2 remake.

You already jumepd off the SE conspiracy theory to destroy the Wii, and went back to bashing Capcom? What, you didn't have anymore material when Crystal Bearers not being canceled/vaporware/ported blew back in your face?

There probably will be another RE Wii game. They're not going to spill the beans now.

Well, this is Nintendo's gambit-- choosing a disruptive input mechanism over HD graphics. It may affect them later on, not in terms of sales, but the kind of games that will appear on the Wii.

Game programmers would probably want to program on machines that'll show lots of bells and whistles with (relatively) lesser effort.

We'd like to think "Oh, it's their loss if they don't make game xxx on Wii". But, somehow, they don't care. After all, some of these developers are doing pretty well in HD machines, anyway.

This arguement is old and dated. The PSX, PS2, and the DS proves you are wrong. Developers can do a lot with the hardware of the Wii. The problem is that they and/ or publishers are not investing money in the development of Wii titles. Instead, they are investing very little money, time, and resources. For example, there are so many developers using game engines developed for the PS2 to develop games on the Wii. Why? Develop tools for the development of Wii Titles would cost time, money, and resources and development studios and Publishers would rather produce cashins.

It is actually their loss. Companies would make more money on the Xbox 360/PS3/PC/Wii than just on the Xbox 360/PS3/PC.

Anyway, Capcom will have more core games in store for the Wii. As well as other companies. They will not let Nintendo be the only company making core titles for the Wii and continue to rake in record profits for software as a result.

I think it would it would be pretty naive to think that Nintendo's decision hasn't already affected the Wii. You said it yourself: "Develop tools for the development of Wii Titles would cost time, money, and resources".

Edit: 360 and PS3 development also cost money, but developers are investing.

Trestres kind of confuses me. He defends Nintendo to the death and flamebaits fans of the HD consoles one minute, and then bashes Nintendo and the Wii the other minute. Just buy the now ridiculously cheap 360.

Maybe it's not you; Trestres is likely the one who's confused, or maybe just conflicted.

Like some of the more hardcore Nintendo fans, he seems to want to have his cake and eat it too. He wants the impressive hardware intensive games like RE5, yet he wants to see them on the platform least suited (both from a technical and commercial standpoint) for it.

Nobody can blame Capcom for a "lack of support" seeing as how it's been one of the biggest third party supporters of the Wii. That doesn't mean the Wii is entitled to have every game they publish, or even their most impressive games since again, that's just not what the Wii was made for.

As for Nintendo, with the number of first party games they've been cranking out, it's a wonder they still have anything left to give fans until the next iteration of each of their franchises that have already made an appearance on the Wii. Don't blame Nintendo for releasing their best games so quickly (what kind of complaint would that be?).

If you know what kind of games you like, and they're obviously not being developed for the Wii, JUST BUY A 360. They're $200. You're not going to be using it as a primary console anyway, so all the online functionality etc. probably won't even be used. Until an HDD is required to play the biggest titles, you don't even need to buy one.
