not going to happen. It's not because it won't sell, there are other reasons why the game won't come to Wii.

Much like why GTAIV isn't coming to Wii. ;)

Well if that petition reaches 50k I'm sure capcom would reconsider a port. The graphics don't seem too amazing compared to other games.


petitions rarely work


Let me put it this way. RE5 is more likely to come to DS than to Wii.


Explain to me how you came to that conclusion.


much cheaper and easier to make a DS spin-off of RE5 to cash in... than to design from ground-up for Wii.

 

Both won't happen, but DS version is actually more likely


I doubt they would have to design it from the ground up. They could do two things either use the re4 engine with upgrades, or directly port it with downgrades.


it can't be that easily to purely downgrade, you have to change a lot of the game physics, as well as number of AI on screen. That's why with games like StarWar force Unleashed, they hire another developer to make Wii/PS2 version.

 


 Then they could use the first option. I also think in the case of the force unleashed the wii's graphics interface is the ps2's just with physics designed for the wii. Also since when has the re series been amazing in physics. Weren't those physics engines in the force unleashed supposed to be advance which means, it wouldn't be as hard porting the physics in re5 compared to the physics in TFU. Then you have to also consider there being not much of an AI because you are killing zombies. So the only challenging thing would be porting the graphics. I would rather it being an improved engine on re4 though. That way they don't have to waste money on building from the ground up , or downgrading it.
