Forums - Nintendo - Resident Evil producer wants to make brand new resident evil game for Wii.

Squilliam on 17 February 2009

With work now wrapped up on the PS3 and 360 instalment, Resident Evil 5 producer Masachika Kawata has told us he wants to make a brand new Resi game for Wii.

Thanks to the magic of translation, Kawata-san hinted to Eurogamer TV that Nintendo fans shouldn't despair that their console isn't powerful enough to handle the high-def horror of number five.

"Personally I would like to create something on Wii in the Resident Evil family," he revealed. "At the moment we don't know and have just been working on RE5, so watch this space."

So far, Wii has received a port of last-gen masterpiece Resident Evil 4, plus The Umbrella Chronicles, an on-rails shooter. A brand new, proper Resi game for Wii would be a massive boost for the console. And might even help

Sounds pretty great really. A very special Resident Evil for a very special console. So boys and girls, were you good this year because Santa wants to bring you a special treat.



Tease.

Should be out by the time the Wii 2 comes out.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

If they begin in the next month or two then it's possibleit could release Q4 2010/Q2011 seeing as there is really nothing wrong with the RE4 engine. Just beef it up a little bit and your good to go.

Oh I'm so surprised :P

Actually I was not sure they'd do this or a RE5 port...

Just give us a rail shooter like Umbrella, incorporating Resi 4 and 5 story and i'll be happy.

Give me my RE2 remake, please.



puffy on 17 February 2009

No! Give us a RE4 style game except with more scary or chilling moments and less ammo - also bring back the items guy, can't remember his name.. which is sad lol

Umbrellla Chronicles 2 ??

UC1 had RE0, REmake and RE3 (and Umbrella's End)

UC2 = RE2, CVX and ??

UC3 (2012 for PS3/360) = RE4 and RE5
