"Capcom's Ben Judd said that a Wii version of the sequel to the 1988 NES original would largely depend on how much Bionic Commando's fans want it.

When asked if a Wii version could ever come to the Wii, Judd said: "It will largely depend on what the fans want for the future of Bionic Commando.

"If the interest is there, of course we want as many people as possible to appreciate this great franchise.""

The fans want Capcom to jump off a cliff. We're not interested in Bionic Commando NEO, nor Street Fighter 4, nor Resident Evil 5.

Hey, it worked for Okami Wii and Resident Evil PSP.

The new Bionic Commando looks more like Spider Man than Bionic Commando to me. Capcom can keep it.

"Would Nintendo fans like a Wii sequel to a game many of them grew up playing on the NES? Yeah? They would? Better buy a 360 or PS3 then!"

Because we all know the 360 and PS3 are the technically inferior and grossly over priced systems!!!

Fans could voice their preferences to CAPCOM For sure but Instead, moneyhats and shareholders would eVentually ovEr rule

Ian Sane · « **Reply #11 on:** January 11, 2008, 04:58:50 AM »

I don't think Bionic Commando fans even want the sequel on the PS3 or X360. Frankly it looks like a disappointing cash-in. I'm a Final Fight fan but do you think I want Final Fight Streetwise on the Wii? No. I wish I could go back in time and prevent that crap from ever being made in the first place.

Here's what I want, Capcom: the support that the market leader deserves. Any game that if it was made last gen would have gone to the PS2 should go to the Wii. Period.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #12 on:** January 11, 2008, 08:52:13 PM »

I hope you actually played Streetwise and aren't just judging it based on the hilariously incorrect big name site reviews and obscure Capcom USA marketing Ian. I made that mistake originally, then I read SUPER's awesome review.

No, we do not want half assed ports, thank you. I'd like a refund on Minish Crap and the Orcales game though.

Nintendawg · « **Reply #15 on:** January 12, 2008, 04:18:39 AM »

Well, I hate when they decide to revamp the character trying to make him appeal to a new edgier audience. It didn't work for the new Bomberman, and I don't think its going to work for Bionic Commando.

Can we all take this time to loudly let Capcom hear us say that we want RE5 instead.
And seriously, if you[Capcom] are considering making the game cause you think Wii owners might want it too, then just make the damn game.

Truth is I will probably just wait for the next Spiderman game that will use[steal] the same aim your webbing mechanic(which would be alot more fun with the Wiimote) and a better gameplay mechanic to go with it. But thats just me.

They were all okay, but I found they weren't close to the magic of Nintendo Zelda games.

I thought Ages and Seasons had it, maybe Minish Cap to a lesser degree. But they were really good. And I call them real Zelda games.

There's now an online petition going on (do these things EVER work?)

Bionic Comando for Wii Petition

Kairon · « **Reply #26 on:** January 13, 2008, 11:37:14 AM »

Maxi posted about that Donutt007.

Actually, Capcom specifically asked for this. In fact, they cited constant interest and fan action on THEIR forums as one of their inspirations to bring Okami to the Wii. They said that even up 'till the week they announced Okami, the people on their forums were posting fan fake box arts and everything for the Wii.

That said, I hope that the people over at Capcom forums are clamoring for Bionic Commando Wii as much as the rest of us are. That's probably the first place that Capcom will look to see if theirs fan support instead of crawling over the internet. So I'd think that the best way to get this going is to funnel all that internet excitement and furor and eagerness and energy somehow so that Capcom sees it. They've definitely asked for fan involvement in showing interest, now we have to get it such that they notice it and can't ignore it anymore.

You know what would be ironic? If all three versions of the game suck big time. I mean, after all the demanding and screaming everyone did the game turns out to be completely crappy.

Which is why this plane should be shot down before it takes off.

Ty, announce your petition on NWR's front page, pronto.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #30 on:** January 13, 2008, 03:46:30 PM »

We should all ignore Bionic Commando and Petition for RE5 instead, it would be a win win situation for us all.
Capcom doesn't have to waste precious resources porting a game we won't buy and they can instead bring us a game that we will.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #31 on:** January 13, 2008, 04:17:14 PM »

Black N Mild you make a good point, but what about people that do want to play it?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #32 on:** January 13, 2008, 06:04:55 PM »

They are in the minority, and must sacrifice for the greater good, which is RE5.
Bionic Commando has a 35% chance of being fun and a 15% chance of being memorable.
RE5 on the other hand will be a direct sequel to RE4 with Wiimote capabilities.
If you had to place a bet, where would you slide all your chips on a one chance shot?

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #33 on:** January 13, 2008, 06:10:40 PM »

RE5 please please please

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #34 on:** January 13, 2008, 07:48:42 PM »

Alright I concede the point to you BlackNmild

Stogi · « **Reply #35 on:** January 13, 2008, 07:56:54 PM »

Capcom: We're giving you Okami! Stop bitching about RE5, you silly Wii owners.

Fans: Burn in hell!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #36 on:** January 16, 2008, 08:20:22 PM »

Ahahahaha, so hey, Capcom has announced a SECOND Bionic Commando game for PS3/360. This time it's a PSN/XBLA download. A 2.5D REMAKE OF THE NES GAME. Capcom must have been laughing themselves stupid when they lied about a Wii game happening if the fans want it.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #37 on:** January 16, 2008, 08:42:41 PM »

maybe thats the one they were gonna port to ti the Wii/Ware if everyone brokedown and cried loud enough.

vudu · « **Reply #38 on:** January 17, 2008, 06:57:31 AM »

Did they confirm it was a remake of the NES game? Last I heard we just knew it was a remake "of the original" which means the source material could be from the arcade or the NES version.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #39 on:** January 17, 2008, 07:49:07 AM »

NO MORE PORKS, DAMMIT

NO RE5, NO BIONIC GIZMONDO, GIVE IT UP

ShyGuy · « **Reply #40 on:** January 17, 2008, 09:00:54 AM »

If Capcom canceled RE5 on the 360 and PS3, and only put it out on the Wii, would you be happy then Pro?

Terranigma Freak · « **Reply #41 on:** January 17, 2008, 09:34:04 AM »

Now the 2.5D game is something I can look forward to!

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #42 on:** January 17, 2008, 09:36:46 AM »

No. Not until I hear it delayed for another 2 years and go thru 3-4 iterations like RE4 did.

Get rid of Chris.

Pick a new setting.

Provide a visual style concept that doesn't involve blatant targetting to the hawdcawe ps3/360 audience. Enough with the super-grimey-gritty bullsh!t. The series creator is gone, and all they do is copy the dominant styles in the PC FPS genre? Just cancel the game come up with a new franchise.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #43 on:** January 17, 2008, 09:41:56 AM »

More like Trollfessional 666 MIRITE?

Man, I needs me some more RE4 style action. Nothing else has came close to that gameplay style yet. That's why I want the sequel.

IceCold · « **Reply #44 on:** January 17, 2008, 11:02:02 AM »

I dunno, as good as RE4 was, it became repetitive and was always linear.

That's not true--there was that one part in the second chapter where you could choose to either take the left path and fight a horde of angry villagers or the right path and fight an El Giante. It doesn't matter that everyone always double-backed and fought both.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #47 on:** August 29, 2008, 07:37:02 PM »

From the article:

“Again, that opens up a whole other can of worms, which is people instantly expecting it to be one-to-one swing controls, and I don’t know if we’d be able to get it to the pinpoint accuracy that a game with this level of design requires. So you’d have to make gigantic surfaces you can swing onto rather than really tight skill-based areas, and that would shift more toward casual. And Bionic Commando has never really be a game for casual players. It’s one of those ideas on paper that’s like, ‘Yes, the Wii controller will work with Bionic Commando,’ but when you actually try to design it out it’s like maybe, maybe not. I don’t know.”

Why don't they just, I don't know, MAKE IT USE THE CLASSIC CONTROLLER?! F*CK! Can't anyone besides the Guitar Hero guys talk about Wii development without saying something incredibly f*cking stupid? The Wii is like some weird retardo field where logic disappears and stupid game design reigns supreme.

How to design a third party Wii game:
Either...
A. Make up an excuse to not release the game on the Wii at all despite the biggest market share.
or
B. Make it suck. Suggestions include porting from a last-gen console, waggle controls, making a spin-off know one ever asked for (CASTLEVANIA FIGHTING GAME!!), dumbing everything down, and/or just plain making crap.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #48 on:** August 30, 2008, 01:12:18 AM »

How is easy aiming for the grapple "casual"? WTF are they smoking? You know they could just have used pointer aiming and left it at that...

redgiemental · « **Reply #49 on:** August 30, 2008, 09:50:37 AM »

Pointer aiming would have been pretty good actually.

I know it sounds kinda waggle-ish but point with the Wiimote and then flick the nunchuck to swing would have worked well i think.

Don't fancy flicking with the same thing I'm pointing with because it might throw my aim off.
