Resident Evil 6, Resident Evil 5 Wii, split-screen co-op discussed in video interview
A new interview from the Tokyo Game Show 2008 has the developers of Resident Evil 5 discussing some interesting things!
In particular, they discuss the inevitable Resident Evil 6, Resident Evil 5 coming to the Wii, and their general thoughts on the Wii system, the newly announced split-screen co-op for Resident Evil 5 gameplay offline, and you even get to see a quick cut-scene glimpse of Albert Wesker!
February 2009 update: Resident Evil 5 producer, Masachika Kawata, visited Capcom Europe’s office in London for interviews while it was snowing outside. Driving through the slushy streets of the UK capital seems to have had a profound effect on Mr. Kawata, because when The Guardian newspaper asked him if he had any locations in mind for Resident Evil 6, he replied: “Why not London?”
Resident Evil 5 producer Jun Takeuchi told Official PlayStation Magazine “I think Resident Evil 5 doesn’t need to change the series, but Resident Evil 6 will have to reinvent the series with another full model change or else it won’t be able to keep on going.”
Another Resident Evil 5 producer Masachika Kawata told The Gadget Show “We haven’t decided whether we’re going to make Resident Evil 6 yet. But if we do, it could take anywhere up to eight years [to make Resident Evil 6], but hopefully only four.”

Did any of you read this article?? at what points did it say “RE5/6 will be on the wii”, struggling to find that? because its not there.
it wont be on the wii, it never will be. the people that MADE the game say it WONT work on the wii. but im sure nintendo fanbois saying it can will make a huge amount of difference.
as for downgrading graphics, your talking about porting a dx10 designed game to a dx9 machine. making a petrol engine run on diesel.
if they made the graphics high end, its hard to drop them down.
your forgetting the last one was ported from the gamecube, not for a ps2/xbox version.
wake up muppets, the wii cant handle decent gfx, fact!
there no fanboism in it. look at the stats for the wii’s gpu and cpu, it simply cant compete.
be like running crysis in dx10 on a 7600gt
