Capcom Has a Surprise for Resident Evil fans with a Wii.

Capcom's Associate Product Marketing Manager, Matt Dahlgren has responded to Resident Evil 5 not releasing on the Wii by saying "It was made for the Xbox 360 and PS3. That being said, Nintendo Wii fans will be very happy very soon." So what could this surprise be? Resident Evil 5 made for the Wii? A remake? Only time will tell.

RE2 Remake? If it is, im going to cry. I sold my Wii.

How could you disagree with my crying? How do you know what im gonna do?

Cwalat5532d ago

i'm hoping for a RE2 remake,
and hopefully some extended scenarios :O

wow that would be awesome.

but then again, when capcom says "we have a surprise" don't take it too serious, since i hate their surprises.

their last one.. "we have a huge surprise for you when you finish RE5" ended up being nothing more than mercenaries bonus.

some expected much much more.

(like a bonus gameplay mode with Jill playable, like Ada's sidemissions during RE4)

- 2 separate story-lines (and you had to play through both to get the "real" ending).
- A real sense of "survival": scarce ammo, scattered weaponry, not being able to fight EVERY adversary.
- Tonnes of CGI cutscenes. (Quite special back in the day.)
- Relatively layered but uncomplicated story.

Very much looking forward to a remake, if one is on the cards.

Oh, and to the OP, you sold your Wii?

Might want to consider picking one up again, the game announcements are coming fast and furious lately. Sure there will always be "bratz" and "babiez" and EA shovelware, but there ARE hardcore (and JRPG, my personal preference) titles showing up all over the place on the Wii and I expect the flood to increase, not abate.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica for the Wii.

Arsenic135532d ago

Really? Was that a joke? Its already on Gamecube.

PS360WII5532d ago

Well all the RE games are on the GC but only RE1 was remade for it.

s8anicslayer5532d ago

Thats funny, Kotaku says the same thing, they feel it's going to be a code veronica remake

PS360WII5532d ago

Hmmm well I know I want hear what they got for the Wii!

Arsenic135532d ago

maybe its just a "dumbed" down version of re5 in umbrella chronicles style.

PS360WII5532d ago

If they made another UC I'd like them to start where the other left off. It actually was a fun light gun game with a good difficulty as well.

Though a RE5 Wii edition would be cool. If that's the case I wish they'd tell us before the PS3/360 version came out for I'd get that one instead.

SinnedNogara5532d ago

For anyone who doubts the Wii's power is http://revoeyes.blogspot.co... Read the blog and learn for yourself. Personally I would want to see some more Resident Evil. I rented RE4 weeks ago, and loved it.

They better not use the Resident Evil 4 engine. That engine doesn't push the Wii at all. The Wii is as powerful as 3 Xboxes, so they should use a engine with those specs. If they did that for Dead Rising Wii, there would be the 100 zombies on the screen at once. Dead Rising Chop till you drop isn't a zombie apocalype game, but a zombie inconvienience game.

I love how someone disagrees with my point, when it even says on the submission page...

"Always submit the url to the original story when possible, and the url should link directly to the content."

The prevalence of parrying: Why is it so popular?

Parrying has been creeping into more games, with almost every high-profile title of the last few years featuring it in some way.  Why?

phoenixwing37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

Dudeson37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.

If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.

Speak with your wallet!

Profchaos41d ago

Bit rich to have to buy games you don't want because you want Sony to support the expensive headset they sold us which cost as much as the console it runs on beyond paying third partys to support it.
Seriously in terms of first party we have horizon on day 1 and a gt 7 vr mode.

They seemingly have made little effort to support it beyond paying Capcom to make re games in VR or a second party studio to make firewall which was mismanaged.

I'm a day 1 psvr2 user and the only thing I'm excited for right now is PC support.

I commented recently this bespoke VR game development model we have right now clearly doesn't work

crazyCoconuts41d ago

On the one hand I feel like there's been plenty of smaller non-AAA games to play and occupy me as a supplement to my flat screen gaming.
But I agree that Sony has done nothing to elevate this beyond the niche it's in and into the mainstream where it would be economical to create AAA games for it.

Babadook740d ago (Edited 40d ago )

Most of these games are worth owning for most people; I own all but 2 of them in fact. So I agree with kevco33. I think you're crazy if you downplay this list quite frankly. Sony can't keep funding software if people don't buy any of it, the ball is squarely in OUR court.

Sony has spent a lot on 3rd party stuff this gen like RE.

phoenixwing41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Saving up for the headset is my first hurdle. Let alone buying games I don't want lol

mudakoshaka40d ago

People downvoting you for not having enough finances...what a world we live in, haha

phoenixwing40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

@mudako
They feel affronted at the very thought that I don't plunk down 500 immediately lol I have a little over 900 games in my backlog I've been buying games instead of hardware ever since I got my PC and ps5. I just don't know if vr is really for me honestly. Every time I have a couple hundred allocated to video games it makes more sense to buy a bunch of flat games instead of vr ones

mudakoshaka41d ago

I have 9 out of these 10 games. I try to buy all the VR games I like to support the advancement of VR!

TheEroica40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

I spoke with my wallet after watching the first headset get weak support. Easy pass until Sony earns my money. Feel bad for those who parted with 500 bucks, falling for the hype that Sony was actually gonna support this thing.

Neonridr41d ago

I own 7 of these titles off the list, lol.

NotoriousWhiz41d ago

I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.

Profchaos40d ago

As a fellow psvr2 owner the question seemingly comes down to do you own a PC.

I think I'm all in I have a habit to hold onto my systems anyhow I still have my psvr1 to hell I still have my NES.

But while it's still worth something yeah you could sell it and if Sony turns the ship around you should be able to buy another one for less than you soldmit for I feel like we won't see any fix for the headset for the next 2 years rumours show that Sony has no current first party VR games in active development after they closed London studios

The whole psvr2 situation has left me feeling a little burnt on PlayStation as a whole to be honest. The first psvr felt experimental but it was supported far more than this superior headset

MIDGETonSTILTS1741d ago

GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.

I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.

talocaca41d ago

I have most of them 😅

Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.

A new mod brings the highly nostalgic fixed angles to the Resident Evil 2 remake, bringing the game closer to the original 1998 experience.
