Not quite. 2 on the N64 didn't sell so well, but that was also when the N64 was at the end of its cycle. The ports of 2, 3, and Code Veronica didn't sell so well on the GC, but Capcom breaking their promise to sell them at a bargain price ($40 instead of the announced $20) likely had a lot to do with that. Finally, the DS port of one sold only so-so, but that port got very little hype or marketing.
So an RE game isn't a guaranteed hit on a Nintendo system, but the sales of the ones they market well show it can still work.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
