Capcom’s Wii Surprise Is Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles

[wraggster]

Don’t fret too much about Resident Evil 5 not coming to the Wii. Capcom said they had an announcement to make at their Resident Evil 5 launch event about the Wii which Famitsu sort of spoiled.

The game in question is Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Details are scarce from the scan, but it says this is a follow up to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles. Also, the genre is listed as shooting and it supports 1-2 players. I think we know what to expect when Capcom and Cavia, the developer of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles and Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, team up. Ready for more rail shooting with Leon and Claire?

the Wii IS capable of shooters that don't follow a rail

Even though I enjoyed Umbrella Chronicles this is a major disappointment. I want "real" Resident Evil games.

I was a bit more disappointed to discover Dead Space: Extraction would be a rail shooter.

Rail Shooters are made and for the wii its obvious i miss the old 3do/saturn days of rail shooters you barely see any rail shooters nowadays and fits on the wii to bring back that arcade shooter feel

don't get me wrong, I like rail shooters, but they're no replacement for the action-shooters.
