As much as I'd like to see this I just don't see it happening. Even though it's a remake, the Wii's hardware is not significantly more powerful than the PS2 and debatably not at all better than Xbox on which FF2 was already released. Why would fans of the series buy the same game again, but now on Wii.
Personally, I'll buy it, but I never played Fatal Frame (Project Zero) before FF4 (English Patch) on Wii. If I owned a PS2 copy I likely wouldn't buy FF2:CB Wii either.
Unlike the trio of Xeno, TLS and Pandora which were (mostly) highly regarded JRPGs that people were dying to play (and even then it took their combined might to drive people into action) the demand for a remake of FF2 simply won't be significant enough to sway NoA.
Frankly I'm surprised this game is getting released at all (at least a 'remake' instead of a straight port) this late in Wii's life and especially after FF4 failed to make it out of Japan. Not sure why NoE is bothering either but I love them for it.
