Ah well, maybe we'll see RE6 on Wii. Wouldn't surprise me.

Well if RE5 was announced for Wii at the same time as the others it would have given it a significant one. But if it was announced like today it would be more difficult as a lot of hype wouldn't be built up for it.

But there is a strong RE following on the Nintendo platforms, such as me, so it would still sell well. But probably not as much as the PS3 and 360 versions.

Personally I wouldn't want RE5 on the Wii. I would prefer they make a traditional RE on the Wii, ground up. My impressions for RE5 is that it's more of an action shooter, then a horror game. But, time will tell maybe it has more frights then it shows...

One only needs to look at current trends in gaming. History really doesn't matter in this case...co-op online shooter + xbox 360 = massive sales. Especially one with as big of userbase thats patiently waiting for a sequel...

Because there are people that own both a wii and a 360/PS3. There is also people who would choose a Wii game(if good controls) over the PS360 version.

1 million guaranteed, anywhere up to 3 million depending on how much effort they actually put into it.

1. You're confusing features with marketing and overall quality.

2. You don't know that many 360 owners are waiting for the game. They might, but you are just assuming. Doesn't work that way.

You're putting words in my mouth. The PS2 had plenty of disappointments. IMO, RE4 was one of them. Just over 2 million sales, I would expect more for such a great game.

But for the Wii to sell 1 million copies of RE4, which many people claim is one of the best games on Wii, when there are frankly inferior games like Wii Play that have sold 20 million copies, is a disappointment. Why would the Wii sell 4 million copies of RE5? The Umbrella Chronicles and RE4 sold around a million on Wii.

All I'm saying is that implementing motion sensing and redesigning everything is not worth the million sales tops that they'll get from the Wii.

Okay, maybe it isn't.

ARGH! I'm leaving this thread.

You can call it knowing your consoles demographics. I frequently party up with freinds and people I meet online when i play halo, street fighter, gears 2...etc...I probably got to talk to atleast 30 different people in the last 2 weeks alone and Id have to say that RE5 demo has made a huge impression with a lot of the shooter fans. And the demo isn't available legaly outside Japan yet, so these people had to seek it out to play it...once it comes out widely and is there on the front page when you log in to xbox live...oh man

I wouldn't go out on a limb here trying to impress anyone on this site with my psychic knowledge and make some crazy prediction if I wasn't absolutly sure the game is going to be a huge hit with the... "What you got Bitch! Oh snap...that shit is off the hook!" crowd. My kind of people...

Ofcourse quality may have a say as well...if the game is nothing like the demo and word of mouth spreads, the game will not have any legs. But what are the odds of that?

"You can call it knowing your consoles demographics."

But you don't. You're just assuming. You have a few hit games with those features, but you also have mediocre sellers.
