Why don't they make a Wii version then port it to Ps3 for the wand version. Surely that would be the logical thing to do.

It wouldn't work. The PS3 wand already has shown that it will not have a thumb control like the Wiimote's nunchuck. There is no similar option for character movement, unless they push sixaxis+wand setups.

Use those resources for a ground up TPS Game for Wii, RE5 was pretty lame. But if they were to bring it to Wii drop Sheva from the single player experience.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

I don't know what to think...RE5's gameplay sucked on others consoles...RE4's one was great on Wii...mmm...

RE4 was fantastic in the first place too.

As to the title.... I don't see it selling well, not only because the audience may not care for a port that old but also because... well...

RE5 was a great title to rent and play in co-op with my little brother for a weekend.

I would never, ever, ever buy it above a certain price.

Sheva has a bad AI ? I always thought it was pretty good. Atleast I had never problems with her.

I prefer RE4 because it has this Horror Setting like all RE. And RE 5 is just more Action orientated.

But I hope they will do Resident Evil Alternate edition more traditional and more scary. It will probably be in the night again. And Chris/Jill will be a Team again. Together with Wii like Remotes (Ps Mote) I think it will be better then the original Game.

It's possible that it'll suck just like the other versions too.

Yeah, I can't wait to see what they come up with.  Nintendo has the nunchuck design copyrighted I believe.

Only if they ditch the title scr-

Oh.

 The nunchuk, yes. A nunchuk-like device, no. Nyko was able to release their unauthorized copy, but they had to make it look and feel different from Nintendo's nunchuk. Sony can (and almost certainly will...) do the same.

They already showed off the alternate version using the DualShock 3 in the left hand and the wand in the right. There has been no indication that they intend to create another remote to go with the wand.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

There has been one indication:

Holding a DS3 in one hand and a wand in the other is brutally stupid and uncomfortable.

Well, if they have cavia port it rather than TOSE (Dead Rising Wii) it might turn out okay.

RE5 was really fun in co-op but near unplayable solo.  If it gets ported they really need to keep all the local/online multiplayer aspects intact.
