But anyway, since RE4 Wii ediiton was such a huge success, why couldn't Capcom do a RE5 Wii U edition? Add some new controls and content and make that the definitive edition and it should sell well. Also, Nintendo platforms seem to have a strong Resident Evil fanbase. The series has sold well enough on the Gamecube which was no easy feat for any 3rd party game.
Well, if Capcom ever does that, I'll probably pick it up since RE4's pointer controls were what I wanted
most with the original version of RE5 (and it's the reason I bought my Move, though I've ironically still haven't replayed RE5 with it).
While collections would be nice, I was thinking more about Wii U "ports" of relatively recent games like Alien Colonial Marines and Darksiders 2. I'd LOVE to finally play ports of slightly older games, like Batman Arkham or Assassin's Creed... like I said, if even half of the rumored third party game list comes true, I will personally be having the best console launch of my life.
I think there's a pretty great shot that you're going to see Arkham Asylum on the Wii U, especially since Arkham City has already been confirmed for it. As for Assassin's Creed, I say this a lot but it bear repeating: you don't
want to play the original Assassin's Creed, which is a
terrible game. You're better off wanting an "Ezio Trilogy" compilation that has AC 2, Brotherhood, and Revelations. They're better games, and they all recap all you should really
care about from AC1 at the beginning anyway.
