I didn’t buy this title because Umbrella Chronicles just wasn’t my cup of tea. And to be fair I thought it was a stupid decision on Capcom’s part. Why create a game like Darkside Chronicles when fans of Resident Evil on the Wii are clamouring for a fully fledged title? If they had remade RE2 for example I’m sure it would have sold a much higher number than DSC - if Capcom can’t see that… well there’s something wrong.

 

Buy the REmake and RE0 Achives games if you want full titles.  People keep talking of RE4 yet ignoring these two.

 

Resident Evil and Resident Evil 0 are the exact same games that appeared on GC. How can you possibly compare what I said to 2 direct ports of GameCube titles. Lets not forget a lot of core gamers who own Wiis probably already own both those titles on GameCube. It doesn't take a genius to figure out these people probably still have GC controllers/memory cards and can therefore have almost the exact same experience on Wii without buying these titles. Plus you have to remember Resident Evil 4 was released with some improvements - most notably the pointer functionality and at a time when there were few decent titles.

Back in 2007 Capcom could be forgiven for being taken off guard by the Wii (therefore rushing out a port) but now? I just don't get it. Frankly I think Capcom only have themselves to blame. This is what Nintendo RE fans have had since Wii: a modified port, a spin off on-rails shooter, a direct port, a second direct port and just to kick fans in the teeth a second spin off on-rail shooter!

I really thought after Umbrella Chronicles Capcom would remake RE2 in a similar fashion to the original titles - I just don't get why they didnt. And as someone who owns RE5 for PS3 I can honestly say I don't want  a watered down version on Wii - just a genuine RE experience created for the console. I can only guess Capcom thought they could get away with cheap content and it's finally backfired.
