Forums - Nintendo - Dead Rising Wii - A lackluster port

The graphics for the Wii version look better than your avatar's face.

First off, Capcom has done a really good job of producing excellent ports of all games they have brought to the Wii so far ...

Beyond that, I think their focus may be on keeping as many Zombies on screen at a time (and maintaining the gameplay dynamics of the XBox 360 game) rather than on producing better graphics with a far sparser environment.

You should be mad that Dead Rising 2 is being postponed for this.

I'm fairly certain there wasn't a single person who thought the Wii could handle as many enemies as the 360.


Why not? I remember games with 32 Quake3 enemies from 7 years ago.

Yes, how DARE the Wii get a quality game!



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I hope the second one makes its way to PS3. I'm not even remotely interested in playing the first one at this point so a port would be pointless. The Wii version may not look as good as the 360 version but I think it will be much more fun.



OK, let's for the sake of your argument assume that at this current stage in development, it only supports  a dozen enemies on screen at once.  But, can we be certain that we will be limited to what we see in this very early build come launch?   Certainly titles can get better with development, can they not?

An example.

The Conduit announced:

 

 

 

The Conduit as of a few weeks ago:

 

 

 

 

So if, IF, the current build is just running with a dozen enemies it's quite possible they are just base testing models and not resepctive of the final product.

If you'd paid attention to what I've said, you would realise that the quality of the game is what I'm questioning.

@Phendrana

The Dynasty Warriors series on Playstation 2 had a lot more enemies onscreen than has been seen so far from this game.



Shameless, I think your gimmick is starting to wear thin.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
