'No plans' for Resident Evil Zero on Wii in Europe or US
Just after Japanese gaming-mag Famitsu broke news of a Wii port of Resident Evil Zero, Capcom has responded, telling Eurogamer, "We currently have no plans to bring the Wii version of Resident Evil 0 that you saw in Famitsu yesterday to either US or Europe at this point in time." Of course, we all know that, in PR parlance, "no plans" doesn't necessarily mean "no" but something closer to "don't hold your breath."
While many bought (at a high price) the already excellent Resident Evil 4 on Wii, RE0 is a far more old-fashioned affair, employing the series' trademark Cumbersome Tank Control™ and Ridiculous Door Loading Screen™ technologies. Without some significant overhauling, we think Capcom's probably right to be skeptical of a US or European release.
