Forums - Nintendo - Resident Evil 5 for Wii "Possible" After All

Shadowblind said:

Screw that. Give us Re4-2, or RE6. RE5 was not a Resident Evil game at all.

RE4 is hardly a "Resident Evil"  game.

i didnt see anything scary or puzzling in it, just shoot shoot shoot and earn points.

Just wait, next spring Capcom will announce Resident Evil: Third Chronicles game with RE4 and RE5, on-rails of course. No way in hell is Capcom going to go back to the far superior survival horror -genre when they can make generic shooters



Any HD game can be on the Wii... as long as you build it from scratch or heavily modify it. Who can argue with that?

They did that with Dead Rising, but too many won't recognize that because they think what was done was just slap it together. Or that they didn't try to put out enough enemies (which shows they didn't play the game).

But on that note, Dead Rising is the first step. They didn't have a roadmap for such games being remade for the Wii. Now they do. They can learn what worked with that and what didn't, and further HD games will turn out even better.

I think the game would have sold relatively well on Wii. Maybe even I would have picked it up despite it looking very Gears of War.

Point being there is not anything in the gameplay that I am aware of that cant be achieved on Wii. RE4 Wii was a great game and looked great as well. Of course you dont have the same texture budget as the HD consoles or rendering power but that has never stopped any PS2 games from achieving what they have achieved.

I'll pass...

The game felt "dated", I played the PS3 version and it was a little bit boring... waaaay to similar with RE4. RE4 with better graphcis, and that's it...

If they want to make a normal RE for the Wii, make a fresh new one.

You put it in that context, but using that bullshit line the HD fanboys have been spewing, and you even tried to justify it. And claiming it's never going to happen shows you haven't even paid attention to the OP.

"Resident Evil 5 hasn't sold as well as Capcom wanted has now been confirmed???"

Was Street Fighter II a disappointment in the arcades when it was ported to the SNES? It was a hit. Ports are more for hits than flops. Only gamers who think porting is inexpensive think ports prove games are flops (not that ports of flops never happen, but that's less than 1% of ports).

I don't pay much attention to what the HD fanboys say. So again you just assumed it meant something else because you did a knee jerk reaction and went on the ultra defensive.

 

 

So don't group me up with them.  I only own the Wii this gen.

How does you not paying attention to them change the fact that the comment is still idiotic? It's not a knee jerk reaction. That assumes I jumped on you because I thought you were an HD fanboy. I jumped on you because you made a stupid comment.

I was going to rebutal your argument but then I reread what you stated and I agree with what you've said but we must remember that Dead Rising: Chop til you drop was an outsourced game. It could have been much better if one of the in house development teams handled the job or the third party was given more resources, time and money, to develop the game. Hopefully, Capcom has learned that lesson.

Instead of RE5, I would prefer to have a Resident Evil 2 remake with RE 4 Wii controls.

 



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

Capcom often has to outsource. They have few employees compared to other top developers. This has become especially prevalent with HD games (and even Dead Rising 2 is outsourced).

But who developed it doesn't change the fact that this kind of game had never been done on the Wii. And I mean a game made for the HD systems, using a massively detailed environment, plus loads of enemies. Capcom would have been flying just as blind if they did it themselves, due to the unprecedented nature of the project.
