UPDATED: REmaker On The Revolution - Wii

Many were worried when Capcom announced Resident Evil 5 for the PS3 and Xbox 360, but not the Revolution. You can put those fears to rest for a while, though, since the producer of Resident Evil: Remake, Minoru Nakai, recently spoke with Jeux-France about the system.

He commented that he's is working on a project for the system, but one that's unrelated to the Resident Evil franchise. According to him, he's developing this other title as a way to get a feel for the controller, and the system. He even suggested that after the game's finished, he might start working on an RE game, with greater understanding of the Revolution.


Update: New quotes from the article:

"It's certain that the Nintendo Revolution controller is its key element, but the real question is whether the innovation within the Resident Evil series requires the usage of all of this unique controller's functions? We recently redefined the series with Resident Evil 4, in which the camera is repositioned behind the hero and elevated the action and intensity of the gameplay. Even if the gameplay of Resident Evil 4 remains up to my taste, we'd clearly love to exploit the potential of the Nintendo Revolution controller to prevent players tiring of this style of gameplay."

"I think it be smarter to develop a game other than Resident Evil on Nintendo Revolution first so that we can become familiar with the advantages of this new control concept -- to better benefit from the potential of the controller. That's what we're working on at the moment."
