So Capcom have announced a bunch of new (old) Resident Evil games coming to Wii, these include a new on-rails shooter called Resident Evil: Dark Chronicles (the sequel to last years Umbrella Chronicles) and 2 remakes; the original Resident Evil and the prequel, Resident Evil Zero. Both games will be the same as the Gamecube remakes, but with Wii controls.
Whilst I’m quite intrigued with the thought of revisiting the Spencer Mansion once again we all know that the game that everyone wants Capcom to remake for Wii is Resident Evil 2. I’d be infinitely more excited about tackling the multiple stories in Resi 2 in glorious Wii-o-Vision and it would be for me (and I suspect a lot of other resi fans) a day one must buy.
Resident Evil 2 was without doubt the best of the original trilogy and whilst the new game, Dark Chronicles will be set in Racoon City and the main characters being Leon and Claire, an on-rails ‘light-gun-with-a-wii-remote-instead’ game is NOT what we’re looking for.
Capcom – we have spoken. Heed our words (please).
Word!
