Next Resident Evil shambles toward Wii

"Watch this space," says Resident Evil 5 producer.
Resident Evil 5 will be in stores about a month from now, which means the Capcom's main Resident Evil team is out of "make a game" mode and into "convince people to buy the game" mode. All kinds of interesting things get said during these pre-release barrages of interviews, and Eurogamer's recent interview with RE5 producer Masachika Kawata was no exception.
"Personally I would like to create something on Wii in the Resident Evil family," [Kawata] revealed. "At the moment we don't know and have just been working on RE5, so watch this space."
To date, Resident Evil on Wii has mostly been a barrage of ports (RE4) and remakes (Umbrella Chronicles), excellent through they were. A new, Wii-specific Resident Evil game would go a long way toward apologizing to Wii owners who aren't too thrilled that they'll be stuck with a slightly sparse port of Dead Rising while the rest of the world is gearing up for high-def co-op zombie-shooting goodness.

Well if they haven't even started it yet it won't be coming to the Wii for years...wtf ever.
RE4 was so great they could have just tweaked that and made a new game for wii.
Thanks to the PS3 demo of re5 I saved the money- I won't buy that crud.

the demo for res evil 5 looks greath but the handling of the caracters is crude at best. not sure about this one. still thinking about buying it or not and the way things are going i may just forget 5 and buy the wii again since there is a lot of good/greath games anounced and comming out and also to play res4 again.

I give you credit for getting through dead Aim, I lasted about 2 hours, or a bit more than I did with both Outbreak's,... Unfortunately RE5 reminds me more of Outbreak than RE4, .. always someone in your freakin way......
RE4Wii was the perfect game though. That is the best game I have played on the Wii without a doubt, so if they stick to that formula without that dopey sidekick Shamwow I'm there.
