"When asked if the engines for Xbox 360's Lost Planet: Extreme Condition and Dead Rising would be used for projects on other platforms, Inafune stated that the engines has been optimized for multiplatform usage, but that they wouldn't work on Wii. Instead, the developer is looking to utilize the Resident Evil 4 engine for some Wii projects."

So whatever Capcom's new game is, it's likely to use an upscale version of the RE4 engine. Even better news lies two paragraphs down.

"The Wiire asked if titles like mature games like Dead Rising and Lost Planet: Extreme Condition would be suitable for Wii and if Capcom is interested in appealing to the Wii owners who desire mature titles. Inafune said all the next-generation systems will all see their share of mature projects, and that Nintendo's new attitude as of late, different from the one exuded throughout much of GameCube's lifespan, allows a better opportunity to develop mature games on Wii - Resident Evil 4 being a notable example."

Unfortunately, this still leaves me stumped. Perhaps it really is something like Resident Evil 4.5 (I doubt it)? I think this interview is also the first time he dropped a hint about Mega Man 9. Furthermore, three posts in a row!

...maybe I should just stop posting to myself. Or get a LiveJournal.
