Like this was one of the few reasons I was still OK with the Wii... and now I see that the new RE is only on xbox and ps3 sadwalk.gif ... just screaming for this sucker to go out and buy another console... I'm just upset it's not on the wii really and was wondering if anyone heard any reason as to why... It may be common knowledge I just don't get out that much 'cept round here naughty.gif...

Do nintendo not genrally try and keep there games pretty friendly and family-orientated??

I know you get a couple of violent games on the wii, but no where near the other console's.

Just my thought on the situ tho mate

Nah, RE4 came out on the Gamecube, in fact the best version of RE4 by a long, long way is the Gamecube version.

RE5 almost certainly won't be ported to the Wii simply because of the graphics, which is a shame. Capcom could do it on the Wii (they claim that even the intro screen is too graphically sophisticated for the Wii, but that's bullshit, the simple fact is with every new generation of graphical and processing power developers get lazier and lazier - why try to squeeze the most out of a system's capabilites when you can just wait for the next gen system to come along and get the same results with lazy, bloated coding ?) but they won't because it would require too much effort. And I wouldn't be surprised if restrictive licensing by $ony and Micro$oft have something to do with it too...

Doesn't change the fact I'm out another 6 hundy just to play RE 5.... well ok I've been looking for an excuse for a PS3 mostly cause they seem to have the more violent type games... However, I'm disappointed with RE 5 not being on the Wii... There was a time that nintendo bragged on them as being exclusivley on their consoles... hence the reason I'm pouting... rofl.gif
