Title: Capcom to announce new original VC games sometime this year
Post by: Mashiro on July 25, 2007, 11:04:44 AM
Some interesting tidbits from Caapcom's producer Keiji Inafune:
Quote - Dead Rising 2 is not currently in development, but Inafune said he would gladly be the producer of the game - With Wii's Virtual Console, he thinks it is easier to develop 2D games because they can be sold more economically than games on the shelves - Capcom will announced new, original Virtual Console games sometimes this year - There are no plans for sequels of Okami or Viewtiful Joe right now - Capcom does not plan to port Okami to Wii like Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition
Could this usher in a new age of 2D gaming on consoles other than handhelds?

This is interesting. I wonder if we'll finally see online multiplayer and the other Wii features in a VC environment.
And why wouldn't they go under Wii Ware? Is Wii Ware only for non-game utilities and indie developers now?

The real news here is the tragedy that there is no VJ3.

VJ doesn't deserve it after Capcom destroyed the franchise after one sequel.

YES. I found a copy of that earlier this year and it turned out to be a lot more fun that I expected!

And reach a much smaller market that way. Microsoft kind of had the right idea with their XBLA collection disc they released, but then they never put out a volume two. TSK TSK.
