Youve completely missed the point. Wii owners dont want a wii version that is comparable graphically to the ps3/360 versions. They all undersand the power difference between the consoles.

They want a version with obviously worse graphics, but better controls. They know their version would look more like the ps2 than the ps3, but they dont care. Its not about graphics, its about the gameplay, and im sure to pretty much all wii owners, an re5 that has the same graphics as re4 would definately be good enough. The power of the wii compared to the 360/ps3 has nothing to do with this argument.

Jesus titty-fucking Christ, it has everything to do with this argument. Physics, enemies, it has everything to do with a game like this. The Wii cannot handle just a *port* of RE5. Just like it couldn't handle a port of Gears, Uncharted, or any other fucking high-definition game I can think of that is worth mentioning.

Wii owners, you will get an RE game. Just let this one fucking go. It's not geared for your console and if it is ported, enjoy your RE2 on N64. 

Physics: Wii has shown it is able to run the Havok engine, which should be more than sufficient for the game... unless you think RE5 needs more advanced physics than Starcraft 2, Halflife 2 (or anything written in the Source engine), etc. 

Enemies: Although I am not saying for sure that this is the case for RE5, the previous RE games have not been about "There are 10k enemies on screen, kill them all).  The largest fight I can think of offhand (although there's a caveat here: I have not completed any of the games other than RE4:Wii because of the controls) was easily handled by the Wii with a decent level of graphics.  The RE series is not about having 1000 enemies onscreen at a time.

So those 2 arguments don't matter.  Level design is the main problem I would see with the game; in RE4 there were definitely times when you can tell they pushed the draw distance of the GC to the max, and so if they've been continuing that for the 360/PS3 version than there could be an issue.  But once again, I don't know if that will be the case because (to me at least) huge draw distances can remove the scary feelings from games... I am much more able to map out a plan, etc.  Small, confined spaces seem to work better in games like RE.  So for this particular limitation, I feel that the Wii would be aided by what works for the genre.

They already have an enginethey could use, and yes, it would take a lot of time and money to recreate the assets for RE5, but saying that its impossible to do is just wrong.  Is it that hard to believe that *gasp*, Wii owners might be fine with downgraded graphics?
