Whether or not the Wii succeeds will depend on one and only one factor: how many zombies you can brutally eviscerate with the Wiikatana. So earlier reports that Resident Evil would not be coming to the Wii caused many of us to immediately write the platform off completely. Duck Hunt is for fruits: let us spill the black, rotting bowels of the living dead, Nintendo!
But good news! While Resident Evil 5 won't be coming to the Wii, having been designed from the ground-up for the 360 and PS3, some other iteration will be coming, and will be called... Resident Evil Wii. Presumably, they will build this game from the ground-up to take advantage of the Wii's controller... perhaps a turn in the House of the Dead direction?
