Petition - Resident Evil 5 for Wii

[The Doctor]

Ive signed the petition, although personally i dont think there is a big chance of RE5 being released on the Wii. However there is hope.
When Oblivion was released its makers stated that the Wii could never handle it and it wouldnt be released on that platform. However this week they have announced that they would be retooling the engine to work on the Wii.

The Wii has had such great success that a lot of companies are trying to figure out ways to get their games onto the console. Capcom will likely be no different. Whether this means RE5 is released on the Wii who knows, but at least there is hope.

As for the petition, internet petitions are a dime a dozen. If you really want to make an impact get people to send in letters. A list of 17000 names can be easily ignored, 17000 letters turning up at head office has a much bigger impact.

The Oblivion Engine can NOW BE HANDLED on the Wii, doesn't mean we'll see Oblivion coming to it.

750,000 shipped is money in Capcom's account; their sales target. They don't ship them to retailers and only get payment if they sell you know :p

i hate when people say shipped is the same as selling.

Lacking reading comprehension, are we? That's what I "hate", because I didn't say they're the same. For a publisher, it's money in the bank and they make their future plans based on them. Otherwise we wouldn't have seen sequels to quite a few games on the market, such as DMC2 or SH4. Look at Capcom's own million seller chart which consists of shipped figures. The post couldn't be clearer and was further clarified with some technicality with vendor relations by Borman's post.

Whenever a company releases figures, it's their shipped targets. The NPD/Enterbrain etc. release fairly accurate sell-through (selling to final consumers) figures based on their client list. They're never 100% accurate either if you want to get technical since not every retailer participates. Just the majority of them.
