lol, so you think porting a much more niche and lesser sold game like Dead rising was cheaper? they even acknowledged the posibility of RE5 last week. I think you are out of touch.When Capcom says its a possibility ,or in the case of RE5, a big chance, they are not saying:we are not willing to like you imply.They even used DR CTYD as an example. Porting SF4 would be much cheaper AND profitable than DR.And if they are willing to port a much graphically heavy game like RE5, this seems like a walk in the park to me.


Just because Capcom took the risk of putting Dead Rising on the Wii (and failed) that doesn't mean they want to do that with every HD game. When Capcom develops an HD game they can release it for the PC, 360, and PS3. They essentially develop 1 game and sell it to 3 core audiences. The Wii however needs a game to be developed specifically for it and it will typically sell the least amount of copies.

Also you guys always complain about Capcom for not putting their major games on the Wii. But companies like Konami, Namco, Square-Enix, 2K, etc also keep their greats on the HD consoles. Clearly a lot of developers find it risky to put games on the Wii.
