Not sure if you guys have been following it but there is supposedly an upcoming announcement of another RE game for Wii owners. Personally I'm hoping for a RE2 remake (Ok my first hope is an original non on-rails game).

Yeah I heard about it.It is funny that you mention RE2. I just saw a rumor about that game being remaked for Wii.In addition to the RE2 rumor there is a Code Veronica rumor.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #2 on:** March 06, 2009, 11:55:03 PM »

I really hope it is not a sequel to UC, because I really believe that after Dead Rising: Extraction is released it will be hard to top in that genre, not to mention I want to see a Wiimotised adventure style game like RE4.

So where the hell's the good news for the RESIDENT EVIL 4 fans?

No one knows. It sounds like March 14th we will.

All signs point to bad signs.

RE5 for wiiware?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #7 on:** March 07, 2009, 12:14:16 AM »

That might not be so bad.

RE5 with a top-down view already looks like Ikari Warriors.

Spinnzilla · « **Reply #8 on:** March 07, 2009, 12:29:17 AM »

well, if it had more responsive controls than RE5 it would blow away my expectations.

Imagine if an Umbrella Chronicles sequel included a Resident Evil 5 stage. What a penis slap to the faces of Wii owners that would be.... and another for a Degeneration stage.

Anyway, whatever this announcement is better involve (you guessed it) Jill Valentine as a playable character, preferable kicking ass in the sexiest manner possible.

Stratos · « **Reply #10 on:** March 07, 2009, 02:34:35 AM »

I'm personally hoping for an RE 5 port or an RE 2 remake. I wonder, if they do make an RE 2 remake if it will be pre or post-RE 4 style.

I've also heard the idea batted around that it could be a new Outbreak game.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #11 on:** March 07, 2009, 02:47:28 AM »

I donno, I've had my hopes dashed too many times by third parties on the Wii.... and Capcom is heartbreaker number one.

my guess will be Outbreak 1+2 with Wiispeak and up to date controls.

Peachylala · « **Reply #13 on:** March 07, 2009, 10:36:53 AM »

I'd rather have a Zack & Wiki sequal. (<- PLZ?)

With Shinji Mikami no longer around, and if the RE2 or Code Veronica rumors prove true, I only hope they don't screw them up. Resi 2 is my of my favorite Resi games, Four comes first though.

I really highly doubt it's Outbreak 1 and 2 since both of them weren't very successful on the PS2. There's a higher chance that they would make a Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles 2 than RE:Outbreak. Also the Outbreak games were never that' great to begin with since if I remember correctly Capcom never implemented voice chat when there were USB headsets available for the PS2.

Maybe it will be RE 6.... which will be a Wii exclusive that will come out in 2010, but then one month before its release Capcom will announce it will also make its way to every other system as well.

I've got a bad feeling this is going to be something like Resident Evil Zero being released outside of Japan, or the Resident Evil remake on the GameCibe being re-released with Wii controls.

...Not that I really care though, because despite owning the first two games in the series I have never played any Resident Evil game.

I read the rumors yesterday and wanted to post them, but I couldn't find Blacknmild's rumor thread anywhere.

Anyways, one thing Golden forgot to mention is that there's another rumor suggesting that Code Veronica is the one that might receive a remake.

I think its best to have low expectations because at this point anything can happen. I do believe it will be a remake or port because Capcom just LOVES doing that.

I think the RE 2 remake makes sense because;
- Its one of the few RE games that has seen a remake in ages
- Capcom already ported RE 1 and 0 to the Wii, so it makes sense to continue the timeline

But once more, I have low expectations. What they say, good or bad, will be met with a lot of whining and bitching.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #18 on:** March 07, 2009, 03:28:32 PM »

you forgot:

3. RE2 has Leon in it, so it'll be easy/cheaper to rehash/recycle his RE4 3D model.

It was on the second page, but for some reason, even if you type in the exact name of the thread, search will not find it.

I somewhat doubt it is a port by the way it was addressed in that interview. It would make EA's supposed bait N switch look like they announced DS: Extraction from the start. When you state that Wii owers will be VERY VERY HAPPY that means something more then a port.

Fans were also very, very happy that Dead Space was coming to Wii...

I just take promotional talk with a grain of salt. Just because the developers think they have something special it doesn't mean it will be accepted right away.

That was the fans, all EA said was that Dead Space was coming to Wii. It is a completely different context. This on the other hand was from Capcom itself. They would have to be very stupid to think fans would be VERY VERY happy for a port of RE0 or something like that. At the very least it is a remake or a sequel to RE: UC.

NWR_pap64 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 07, 2009, 06:15:41 PM »

I can guarantee you that if a sequel to UC is announced no one will be happy because it will be another on rails shooter (thanks to Dead Space now on rails shooters are a bad thing

).

I think the only game that could make fans happy is a RE 2 remake because despite it being the most popular and beloved entry in the series Capcom has pretty much ignored it in favor of RE 1.

But fans will NEVER be happy. Trust me on this. Fans will whine and bitch no matter what the announce.

And THIS IS PR TALK.

Stratos · « **Reply #24 on:** March 07, 2009, 06:28:22 PM »

They could bring both the Zero and 1 Wii ports in one convenient (and hopefully cheaper) package.
