Capcom asks if you want Resident Evil 5 on Wii.

Capcom asks if you want Resident Evil 5 on Wii.

A new survey from Capcom has appeared recently on the internet in which certain lucky people can spread their views on the upcoming horror hit, Resident Evil 5. Among questions asked was an inquiry into what would make you buy Resident Evil 5 more. Options included “A conclusion to the battle with Umbrella”, “The expansion of online modes” and “A vast amount of extras and hidden elements after clearing the game”, amongst others. All common answers to such a question.

One option, on the other hand, stood out considerably, namely “The release of a Wii version”. It is very likely that Capcom is seriously considering making a Wii version of Resident Evil 5. Especially after the recent success of Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition and Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles. Not to mention the Japan-only Resident Evil 0 port. Of course the opinion of the consumer is the most important aspect in making such a decision, thus the survey.


After recent denials of the game and at the same time slip ups involving a notion to a Wii version we were left more than confused. This quote of Sega of America’s president Simon Jefferey in an interview concerning hardcore gaming on the Wii let slip that Resident Evil 5 was coming to the Wii: "Resident Evil 5 (pauses for a moment) when that happens on the Wii it's going to help." Jefferey then tried to withdraw his statement after the interview claiming it was just a “slip of the tongue”, because he had just discussed Resident Evil 5 at the Microsoft event during the E3. On which Capcom (sarcastically) responded: "We have nothing further to announce regarding Resident Evil 5 at this time. Did you hear about the Sonic MMO, though, for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS and Megadrive? And they're bringing back the Dreamcast! Because it was brilliant."


Also Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development of Capcom had something to say when asked about the Resident Evil 5 Wii slip up: "Simon's a friend of mine... but I don't think I've spoken to him about anything like that.


So can we expect a Wii adaptation of the game? This in any case showed us that Capcom is at least considering this option. Let’s hope for the best!

This could actually work out quite perfectly.

It can work with Wiispeak and Wiimotion plus. Alright, it may not come Friday, March 13th, yet, I'd still buy both the 360 and Wii version. I have to save some money from Xmas to buy all this upcoming stuff.

Re: Capcom asks if you want Resident Evil 5 on Wii.

I would love this game on the Wii!!!! :]
As well as the other features they posted.

BTW: Sonic MMO? Are they talking about Sonic Chronicles?
EDIT: Oh, I'm sorry. I misread :[. I forgot SC was only on DS. He said Xbox 360 and all those other systems. It must be a sweet game!
