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


Yeah , but you can't ignore 50k signatures. They already said they noticed the petition. That is just a small amount of people on the internet. There is no doubt that everybody who bought re4 wii , and more aren't going to buy the game if it does come to the wii.


50K is absolutely nothing. Remember Capcom also noticed the DMC4 exclusive petition. and what did they do? Absolutely nothing.

You don't have to 'care' what I say, it's what Capcom does that's important, and no, it won't happen.

There is a difference between them losing sales by keeping it exclusive and gaining sales by porting it to the wii. How much would you expect sales to be if it was ported to the wii? I would say  1-2mil at least.

Why would you WANT another port. Dont we have enough of them on Wii already. More new IP's and other games like Breath of Fire for the Wii, Ill take that built from the ground up over RE5 port anyday.

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.

RE games have done great on the Wii.

I don't understand why people say the Wii couldn't do RE5. So what if it had RE4 level graphics? Graphics are not important, gameplay is important.

Capcom must be spewing that they never planned a Wii version from the beginning.

*shakes head* why do we have fanboys?

they do nothing but ruin things,

on topic:
and if re5 would come to the wii, i think it would sell a lot, maybe even more that the ps3 version



Daddo Splat on 08 April 2008

how many disks would it take the wii and how big of a graphical hit would it take to port take.

ninty guy thinks very little! Id say the 88 megs of system ram compared to 512 for 360, and 256 video and 256 system for the PS3. would be to watered and muddeled that a dev. wouldnt want to do that to thier game.

Very true, but if any gaming company has exhibited a willingness to consider petitions, it's Capcom.  Heck, they were even courteous enough to acknowledge the fanboyish "Dump the Xbox 360 version of DMC4" online petition.

 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.
