Dubindoh Posts: 852	The guy (SEGA's president) was obsiously speculating a possible future release... That's how I understood it, by his tone of voice and casual speech. Yuri Lindbergh De Araujo 'Hero of Kokoto' Translator / Tradutor Photoshopped beards have almost the same power as real ones...

Sven Posts: 6410	Simon's a friend of mine... but I don't think I've spoken to him about anything like that. No comment beyond that really. Interesting clip that slip aside though. Simon's a really smart guy. I have a lot of respect for his work at Sega and his prior work at Lucasarts.

pedrocasilva Posts: 1364	The interviewers are just... well... partial and trying to shove the idea of "please, do crap for that console, don't make an effort, I beg of you, real games shouldn't sell on it, because if they do developers will do more of them, shouldn't! not can't", seriously, that isn't professional. it's childish even. As for his comments... I think he would imply he was speculating if he was, thing is, he didn't said it as a secret either, more like a casual remark. My guess is he mistook it for some other game (perhaps RE4) and didn't notice. these guys are interviewed like 20 times in a row, they have to make mistakes. This said, he is also a insider, so he ought to know more about other companies than the average joe, and madworld is by platinum games, ex-capcom employees who could still have some ties with it, so... But I'm going with my previous stated gut felling instead of this "imaginative" at this time scenario. Will translate into more pressure for Capcom though.

Monkey_Tape Posts: 47	Monkey_Tape doesn't like to align himself with a particular console for stupid reasons. But this is an exception. Capcom, Monkey_Tape doesn't say this about many games, but RE5 needs to be on Wii. It simply won't feel right without the Wii's controls. You're already doing it with Dead Rising, so why not?

Until then, you can not call yourselves the best 3rd party on Wii. Right now, that title belongs to Marvelous baby!

Simon's a really smart guy. I have a lot of respect for his work at Sega and his prior work at Lucasarts. He's one PR I like to listen and read, that's for sure. He's clever, seems to know what we, Wii owners want, doesn't look down on us or suggest we deserve crap/inferior games, and seems to have a real passion in the area.Now if only (perhaps not in his hands but) he'd give me Shenmue 1 and 2 enhanced ports (I'd take shenmue 3 Wii too) and Yakuza 1 and 2 for the Wii... ^_^ (and a panzer dragon orta port with wiimote, a new panzer would be awesome too, but I won't ask more than that) I'm just sad, people with a vision like that, have to put up with stuck up biased interviewers like the ones who appeared in that video. I mean... the Conduit guys (also your friends, I hear :)) had to put up with a gamespot interviewer who was like "why attempt good graphics on the wii? why not going for the HDs instead? why attempt to do a good game for the wii?" stuff like that... I mean, real bias against. Such industry trolls are not right. sure, but they must be able to wear down the passion and motivation of the developers, I mean, they're doing games for them (them, us, me), putting effort, and they act like pricks in return, and act in packs. Such prejudice and stupidity from them has to stop.

jasonmg99 Posts: 259	the more hope and speculation, the better. I mean look how the conduit is coming along. That's definately a notch below high def, and the AI is pretty advanced. RE5's AI doesn't look to be much more advanced. So an RE5 release rumor definatly holds true, and those that think its impossible or difficult to port over are pretty wrong.

Ishaan Posts: 223	I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few of Capcom's next-gen offerings were to also become available for the Wii. Dead Rising and Umbrella Chronicles seem to indicate that Capcom's trying to bring the Wii audience (the ones who didn't own Gamecubes / Are new to these franchises) up to speed. Not putting RE5 on Wii is just...well, let's just say I think the chances of it happening (eventually) are higher than those of it not happening. Street Fighter requires no introduction obviously. And Lost Planet...well, I still think it would work very well on Wii. Let's hope they bring it over. There's no reason not to at this point, really. Make it so, Sven! ;) P.S: Plus we have Monster Hunter and Spyborgs as exclusives. Capcom really does care about the Wii's audience despite what people might think. They make a tidy profit, we get games. Everyone's happy.
