Hellfire Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 http://blog.wired.com/games/2007/03/capcom_more_wii.html RE: Umbrella Chronicles is still coming out in 2007, Devil Kings 2 that was anounced for Japan wasn't anounced for USA/Eu yet and there will be more Wii games in 2007 and at least one should be anounced in the next few weeks. Cool.
... Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 There is actually less information about this RE game than there is about Sadness.
Colin Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 There is actually less information about this RE game than there is about Sadness. At least we know Capcom is capable of making a game.
raven_blade2006 Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 At least we know Capcom is capable of making a game. QFT : peace: Cant wait to hear what these unannounced Wii games will be. Hopefully Capcom will show something a little more impressive this time.
flameboy Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 At least we know Capcom is capable of making a game. Yeah..and we have seen some footage..even if it was only that small amount on the wii's initial games showcase.
... Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 All I saw was a CG movie of around 4 seconds. Maybe there's a video I don't know about? That's like saying we've seen footage of Halo 3. Which we haven't, that was just a teaser that can be made in a day. Anyway, I know we know that Capcom can make games, I was just saying. All we have on RE Umbrella Chronicles is a title. I wish we had more.

Aimless Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLtfGZWDBcI I'm not sure whether this is actually official... It isn't. 'It begun', indeed. I've faith in Capcom. They've been on such great form recently, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Umbrella Chronicles really is.
... Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLtfGZWDBcI I'm not sure whether this is actually official... If I'm not mistaken that was a video made as a trailer for REmake back in the day. I hadn't seen that in a long time and have been looking for it, thanks. Those UC captions were made by some fan.
DCK Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 How much can we trust a blog post though? I'd actually prefer a 2008 release for this one, honestly.
shade Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 You might get that actually. Well for Europe that is. I want capcom to do for Wii what they have done for 360. Bring out some new fresh IPs and make them good ala dead rising and lost planet.
flameboy Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 yeah me to shade, we are seeing that with Treasure Island I guess...but that doesn't fill me with excitement.
Hellfire Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 How much can we trust a blog post though? I'd actually prefer a 2008 release for this one, honestly. Chris Kholer is a reporter, the blog is for wired, he is VERY trustworthy.
Zechs Merquise Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 This won;t happen this year, and Sadness will NEVER happen, it'll be like Duke Nukem forever!
Teppo Holmqvist Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 How much can we trust a blog post though? Chris Kohler is extremely dependable, so there is no need to worry about it.
Aimless Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Chris Kohler is extremely dependable, so there is no need to worry about it. But the blog post is about Capcom having contacted him due to factual inaccuracies in his writeup of Treasure Island Z. And he linked to a blatant fan video, not official footage. I'm not saying he's a lier or a chronically bad journalist, I just think it's pretty funny that you called him 'dependable' given the situation. Anyway, I see no reason why we won't see this game by the year's end. Presumably it'll be using a modified RE4 engine, and it isn't as if they don't have the assets for the original mansion lying around. I realise there's a lot more to it than that, but Capcom might have had a team working on this game for well over a year for all we know. I think that's the important thing: at the moment we don't really know anything. Until we do, I see no reason to doubt Capcom's forecast of a 2007 release.
Teppo Holmqvist Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 ...but Capcom might have had a team working on this game for well over a year for all we know. Longer probably. Game was listed first time about ten months ago on Nintendo's fiscal report.
DCK Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Chris Kholer is a reporter, the blog is for wired, he is VERY trustworthy. Alrighty, then let's keep our fingers crossed. Still, this game seems to be needing more development time.
Hellfire Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 Alrighty, then let's keep our fingers crossed. Still, this game seems to be needing more development time. How do you know? They can be witholding info just because they want to, that doesn't mean the game need more dev time. I mean, there are 9 months left to the year, they could have been working on the game for a year or so, the engine is mainly built, so I don't really see a problem.
Zechs Merquise Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 If it was at the stage of previews and a healthy amount of in game footgae by the end of 2007 I'd be happy. I just don;t think Capcom are gonna rush it or mess it up.
Cube Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 There is actually less information about this RE game than there is about Sadness. Perhaps they are using the "Wait....wait....wait....BANG!" Tactic..
Cookyman Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Perhaps they are using the "Wait....wait....wait....BANG!" Tactic.. MEGATON! Well someone had to say it!
The fish Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Perhaps they are using the "Wait....wait....wait....BANG!" Tactic.. Instead of the RE4 tactic of "Look! The game!...Wait...wait...look! This is now the game!...Wait...wait...look! This really is the game!...Wait...No, that wasn't the game...wait...wait..wait...wait...wait...Look!!!!! This really is the game!!!...Look! More of the game!...Wait...BANG! It's in the shops!" Man, that was annoying...
blender Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Usually when there is no hype, it ends up being a crappy game. Red steel is an exception i guess. All the non mainstream RE were a bit crappy. I'm hoping for a house of the dead clone
Teppo Holmqvist Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Usually when there is no hype, it ends up being a crappy game. Red steel is an exception i guess. Usually when there isn't hype, dudes like you aren't brainwashed by it.
