I think there were a number of reasons why RE5 could and/or was not done on the wii but the biggest technical hurdle cited by the producer of the game was that Sheva's AI is just too advance for the wii.

I think Reggie had a similar outburst like this last year with Dead Space (and maybe some other games?), and now the wii is getting Dead Space: Extraction, and Capcom has already announced a new Resident Evil game for the wii.

 

uh..... I don't know, Sheva's script is hardly impressive, it's actually quiet crappy.

 

 Doesn't say much for the wii now does it.

The PS2 had good and bad in 3rd party releases, and the cream actually rose (since the key PS2 customer was someone who actually liked gaming for gamings sake). The Wii has a handful of good games like Madworld, and that handful are shot down leaving only low budget crap to be made. It isn't entirely Nintendo's fault, but in choosing not to go to the low end of HD (and thus get easy ports of quality games on the other 2 consoles) and marketing solely to casuals they kind of brought this on themselves.

Ever see a Sony E3 where they spend 10 minutes talking about how housewives can use their product to get recipes and how they advertise on daytime talk shows for old women who sit at home? I think not.

 

I want to read the rest of the thread before replying to this, but I can't.

You're trying to use Sony E3 to prove a point? Do you even remember 2006? That was the biggest epic fail to ever hit the internet. Whether they were talking about housewives or not, trying to use Sony E3 presentations to prove a point like this is pretty much an instant loss.

@fanyboy985
Wait, how much did you sell it for and who bought it?

i guess they are taking nintendos approach on things taking their sweet time and then we less realize it after a year or two release it on the wii.

na, the devs were probably just bad at writing scripts or put too much junk in it since she's only good as a junk box and some what of a bad aimbot.

It's not that he's arrogant, it's a valid question, people think he's cocky but he's really not. there is no reason to have a price drop on Wii for example, he shouldn't have to explain why, because the better question is why do people think Nintendo should do it because I don't see why myself if it's selling like hot cakes, the man goes right to the point, it's more aggressiveness than arrogance(or being cocky) by far, the man wastes no time. The simple truth is Capcom hasn't provided the same effort to the Wii as a whole and it shows, no matter how many anti-Wii people there are, it still is the leading console of this gen after all. Then again, you could argue that Capcom hasn't been showing the same effort towards making games in general lately, but that's just my 2 cents.

 

 HD consoles ( seeing how they both get games)  are still the leading one this gen.

Thing is the PS3 and the Xbox360 are close enough from each others that releasing a game on both is not a lot more expansive than releasing it only on one...

 

It's not on the Wii because Nintendo purposedly designed a system not easilly compatible with the other consoles and Regie knows it perfectly well...

 

Sure Capcom could probably trash the graphics and do a shitty port and then Wii owners would complain and Capcom image would be even more hurt. There's no win-win situation in those cases. You don't do a port, people bitch, you do a port they bitch too...

HD consoles are not 1 console, there are 3 consoles so that hardly qualifies as a valid argument, it's more cost vs effort vs profit and Capcom has gone corp, I don't blame them for doing so since it will yield them with a burst of money at a lower cost but that doesn't impress me one bit as how their company works now vs how they used to be. Capcom games are still good but the innovation and quality of production is not as high as they used to be.

so the xbox 360 and ps3 are not 1 console? Glad we found someone smart as you to figure this out.

 

Nintendo choose to make alot of profit on hardware, and released the Wii with a sweet 250 price tag. Nintendo knew full well that the wii would miss out on great 3rd party titles, but did so anyway. This would also boost their own 1st party software sales, since not alot of competition.

They let u Wii fans miss out on great 3rd party titles for money, and then reggie points his finger at capcom.

Real classy

 

 

 

actually, it's more like 3rd party bailed because they thought that Wii was going to flop, and it somehow managed to sell this many, so most 3rd party's high production value projects went to the 360 or PS3 and now some people have this bias towards the Wii without realising that it was the 3rd party's problem to start with, so he has every right to bitch to them.
