ok.. re4 sold what 2 million on the PS2 which had a userbase of 100mil +
sold like 1.5 on GC which maybe a 20 mil userbase... if you ask me, Nintendo is the home of RE, PS3 will be lucky to get a Wii port.

 then why is Capcom currently making RE5 for the PS3/360/PC and not any Nintendo systems, kinda kills any point you were trying to make, doesn't it now.

RE5 development began long before RE4 for the Wii was ever concieved, before the Wii's stats were even known, before it was known the Wii would be a runaway success. The only reason it is slated for the consoles other than the Wii is because of the work they'd already put into it. That's all. Kinda kills any counter point you were trying to make, doesn't it now?

 RE4 was just a port sold at a budget price, the same can not be said about RE:UC.

RE:UC was capcoms test game made from the ground up for the wii with the wii users in mind, so the success of this game will determine what capcom do next on the wii interms of the RE franchise, that's why I said that it's most likely that they'll make RE:UC2 before doing anything else with the RE franchise on the wii 


that doesnt make sense,tell me somthing what do you think capcom wants another game to sell 1.3mil+ or 700k+

But this isn't a petition for more shovelware, its a petition for RE5. And I don't see a problem petitioning for a port, only you do. It sounds more like you're trying to convince yourself the Wii will always have seperate games.

 Right now the Wii is in a great and unique position to have exclusive, unique and creative games on it, and this is where I feel people should be leaning more towards, instead people just want games from other consoles ported to the wii, I'm just saying play to the wii unique strengths not it's weakness, just look at SMG it played to the wii strengths and now everyone raves about it.

But why can't RE5 play to the Wii strengths as RE4 did?

 what you said makes no difference as RE5 still is slated for only a PS3/360/PC release, and that's what I was pointing out to him, nothing more nothing less.

 It can, but why not have a game created for the wii from the ground up instead of just getting a port?

 I know they want Zack and wiki to sell at least 700+. XD

but seriously, any company wants their game to sell +1million so yeah I see what your getting at, also I do remeber hearing something about capcom wanting to make RE more mainstream/casual which is why the went with the control scheme of RE:UC, so assuming they have the same thinking right now, then it's more likely they'll make RE:UC2 rather than something like RE4, well thats just my opinion. 



Resident Evil 4 dejavu about exclusivities......No one is saying that the game would not come out on the HD consoles. Troll YOU are saying that a port is not going to happen on the wii. How do you know? Do you have the ability to read the future? Or you are an insider in capcom that knows that it will never be published a RE5 port on the wii?
The only thing you can is to speculate, and from the majority of people i know want a port or they would buy the game on Wii only so Capcom is a smart company who want to make money and money right now is on wii. So i will bet anything with everyone that this E3 a resident evil if not 5 will be bound to happend on the Wii.
