Funny how people add the Gamecube ports to make it seem like Wii has had tons of Resident Evil games....
3 last gen games and 2 on-rails games... that's amazing...
360/PS3 owners should be so jealous right now... -_-
I wouldn't be surprised if Resident Evil 5 cost more to make than all those games put together...

Well PS3 fans used to bitch about JRPGs. But that's not really the case anymore. However, Wii fans bitch all the time about HD games skipping the WIi. Which happens all the time. Black Ops is one of the few WIi is getting and we haven't seen anything about it yet. I'm not even seeing it on the pre order charts. |
nah and HD fans doesnt bitch about every game thats being made exclusively for wii.. do you want me to give you a few examples?

It's reported to be Capcom's most expensive game, at least so far. So the talk about how it would be hard to put it on the Wii, when it clearly won't cost quite that much, is either an escuse and/or laziness. It's not as though Capcom couldn't have had at least started planning already instead of just dragging their feet.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Others might have been more general, but I personally mean games like RE4, and the other RE games on the Wii are not like RE4. So it just proves that the other types of games called RE, but don't play like RE4, as not as popular.
This also shows that even an original RE game like 4 could work, and didn't you even mention that could work as well?
I personally would like both an original game and 5 on the Wii (and for the original game to be ported with a graphics upgrade to the HD systems, just to be fair).

UC selling 1.2 million and DSC selling 600k aren't exactly evidence towards this sort of thinking... especially when you compare them to how the Gun Survivors sold on PS1/PS2. ;)
REmake and RE0 doing little shows more how out of whack Capcom's values were with those releases (both games probably should've been bundled together as is for $29). And unlike RE4 Wii, they had no functional interface or content improvements.... which is too bad, I think cursor controls could be interesting with the old RE design.

Ok, I won't be racist (? ^_^) and treat the RE4 port different than the Archives ports. I'll treat them equally...
Let's see how they have done compared to games in the same category:
Spin-offs: The Chronicles series did better than the Outbreak and Gun Survivor series. Yeah, I'd say there is a market...
Last Gen Ports: The Archives series (and RE4 if you wanna be fair) did better than when the GC got the N64 ports of Resident evil 2 & 3. Again, yeah I'd say there is a market...
REAL Resident Evil games: (No last gen ports or spin-offs) Oh look! Wii hasn't had one yet. Unfortunately, we don't know if there is a market or not :'(

Not really, this just shows that we stopped caring for on-rails games :| |
Actually, pretty much every hardcore/3rd party series on the Wii has a similar dismal pattern. Initially decent sales, with gradually lower sales per sequel--even when said sequel ramped up the quality a la Red Steel 2 and No More Heroes 2.
How many of you guys who want RE5 on the Wii ever actually played the game on the Xbox360 or PS3/
You do know it was a massive low point for the series, right?
It has it's moments, sure, but as for being an Resident Evil game? It's way off, and many parts of it are shockingly not fun. I have personally never played a more aggravating, asinine, annoying Resident Evil game. And I love the crap out of this series.
...which, I'm sure, is pretty obvious.

NMH HD also bombed. I just don't think the franchise has much pull, despite the cult success of the Wii original. Ubi sending NMH2 to die didn't exactly help either.
