Nintendo decided audio/visual is not important this generation. There is consequences to that, no matter what the sales.

Engineers and artists want to show their excellence.

Ckmlb isn't so much a troll as he is a "Hardcore" diehard. He knows those games could be done on the Wii with some work and would do much better on the Wii but he's one of those who's saving grace for his beloved "Big Boy" games is that they stay on the graphical powerhouse systems (though were was that logic last gen when PS2 was dead last in graphics?). He like many others have given up on the console(s) he supports most being number one, he just wants the "Big Boy" games to stay where he thinks they belong. You don't think he's just going to stand by an let people well-wish the bread and butter of gaming away from his eye candy engines do you? He always shows up in threads like this to shit on people's parades, at least now that he's a mod he's a little more civil about it and does it less frequently. And don't give me shit about him owning all three consoles, that doesn't prove anything, the fact alone that only Sony supporters use that argument in his defense tells you something.

I think what bothers them the most is that they know if third party companies knew the Wii would be as big a hit as it was back then, RE5, DMC4 and so forth would have never been developed initially as 360/PS3 games. And that's all the more reason for them to worry this actually could happen.

Even if this petition is of no value to Capcom, the sheer number of people supporting it is an excellent indicator of the desire for this port.

 Someone is a little cranky today.

 I have played RE4 for the Wii and as I've said multiple times I loved it.  What I mean by inferior version is that one of two things will happen if RE5 is brought to the Wii:

1. Everything is scaled down so much that it looks like a PS1.  Remember, this game is being optimized for the 360 with the Wii not in consideration at all.  This means it isn't like Harry Potter and the Order of  Phoenix where the Wii version only has the bad graphics and framerate, but it means that this game has textures, models, and things on screen enough to take full advantage of the 360.  If Capcom wants to keep the full gameplay in there, they will have to very much scale down everything A LOT in order to get everything on screen at once.  From what I've seen of RE5 so far there are a lot of things on screen, more things on screen than RE4.  Models and AI cost a lot and they are going to have to be very cheap in order to get them all on screen.  If you really want a game that plays like RE5 and looks like Cruis'n Wii then that's fine, but graphics do matter to some extent and I wouldn't want to play something that looks like the developers took a crap all over the screen.
2. In order to get the models to not look like crap they would have to change the gameplay.  They would have to change the number of enemies on screen AND change the amount of objects in the levels.  The gameplay would be pretty different so the Wii would be considered the casual RE5 with the PS3 and 360 getting the hardcore RE5, the real RE5.

Given the choice most fans would pick having the real experience over the superior control scheme in this case and the game just wouldn't do well.  True, the Wii has a large user base but how many Wii owners want to buy a RE game?  Now how many of those don't have a 360 or PS3?  Probably not enough to make money on the game because those people would want to by the better version.

That is what I mean be inferior.  Either case the controls would be just as awesome as in RE4 and that's great, but you're either going to get one with the same gameplay that looks like a PS1 game or one that looks like RE4 but with different scaled down gameplay.  In either case RE fans would be screaming outrage and Capcom would get blamed. 

with me there are 4233 signatures

how many signatures did the resident evil psp petition have?

 10000

I have really been wondering the same thing myself.  I guess people felt the site was too Nintendo biased so they decided to make a sony fanatic a mod.
