Yeah. Capcom is looking to make Resident Evil 5 with Wii in mind first & I wouldn't even be surprised if it would be exclusive to Wii though it could still be multiplatform with another setup designed for PS3 & XBox 360.

Do you have anything at all to back up this statement? It's hard to take you even the least bit seriously when you appear to just pull things from your ass and present them as fact.

That was a pretty stupid reply.

Johnlucas is known for his crazy predictions, not crazy facts.

I have nothing against people making predictions and it's up to them if they want to provide their reasoning and/or facts to back up their predictions. But in this case he isn't making a prediction, he's saying that the RE5 team is making that game with the Wii in mind first. I'm simply asking him for proof instead of just the usual bullshit that I keep seeing.

Think about this Legend11. What was the purpose of releasing a very old game (which was made for the Gamecube so most Nintendo fans have already played it) on a system just giving it a new control setup?

What's the purpose of releasing this old game here & selling it for an automatically discounted price to compel pickup & sale?

What do the strong sales for a very old game tell Capcom, the company who put this together?

Do you not think it was a test of Wii's ability? Do you not think it was a test of Wii's ability to sell to the old audience under new control schemes? Do you not think an old game with Wii controls becoming a worldwide million seller does not ring a bell in Capcom's collective head?

They had no other reason to release this on Wii other than to give Wii a test. And Wii passed!

I guaranTEE you this is what compelled them to move Monster Hunter 3 to Wii EXCLUSIVELY. Not just multiplatform but EXCLUSIVELY. This is why they made Zack & Wiki. They believe in the Wii & are reversing their stance towards the system.

You won't believe me now as nobody believed me in 2005 when I basically predicted this entire generation (save for Sony's self-sabotage) or when I said Wii passes XBox 360 worldwide in July (disputable but I'll let it slide) or when I said 20 million year's end & slowly people began saying 20 million right along with me. Much like hardly nobody believed me when I predicted the console hierarchy way back in 2006 in all regions.

I expect it & welcome it. But don't be surprised if you hear a Capcom exec come out of the blue and announce RE5 for Wii or even more special RE5 for Wii EXCLUSIVELY.

Time will just have to tell. But your clue is the existence of a RE4 Wii Edition & its million-seller status.
