Resident Evil 5 was announced a month ago with a trailer showing impressive graphics. The game was announced for the Xbox 360 and Playstation3, but not Nintendo's next generation console, Revolution. Since Resident Evil 4 was a huge succes on the Nintendo GameCube, most analists expected that an announcement for RE5 for Revolution would follow when Nintendo brought more concrete details about the new console.
This article on Cubed3 seems to confirm this. Below is a snippet.
"…As they will most likely be for the impending release of Resident Evil: Deadly Silence, which was briefly revealed in Famitsu via some sketchy images and later by the official Capcom website. Reaction to the game so far has appeared mixed, with the idea of RE DS being positive, but the current graphical quality not impressing at all due to it looking much more rough than the gorgeous N64 port of Resident Evil 2 – and with the DS being reportedly more powerful than the N64, the angry bandwagon is rapidly overflowing. However, I learned at that night Capcom is working the original RE into a fully-3D format, with first-person shooting sections from RE4 on the GameCube. Now do you see why it all looks a little rough around the edges at this early stage? This game is going to BIG, with players having to wipe the touch-screen with their fingers to clear away blood that has splashed in your face! Capcom and Nintendo are as close as ever, which is why it was also confirmed that what a few of us had suspected is true – Resident Evil 5 has yet to be announced for the Revolution purely because details of the system are not publicly available. There will be good news on this front, worry ye not!"
Seems very likely indeed. Fingers crossed, Nintendo fans.
