Guardian writes: "This game is actually a remake of a remake, having made its second appearance on the Gamecube to some acclaim in 2002. It's also the second Resident Evil game to be transferred from the Gamecube to the Wii, although the effort that went into Resident Evil 4's rerelease is sadly nowhere to be seen here. The controls, graphics and even the original 4:3 screen ratio all remain identical to the version released seven years ago. Considering the Wii's inbuilt ability to play Gamecube games, it's difficult to fully recommend a purchase even at the reduced price this is being offered at."
Capcom has secured a new PEGI age rating for the original 1996 Resident Evil game, leaving many fans to wonder why.
That would be great. I like the idea of remakes in general, but I feel they would be much less polarizing if the original games were easily available on modern hardware. Maybe Capcom doing that will motivate other companies like Konami, Blizzard and whatnot to do the same.
Hmm.... Capcom has become rather chummy with Blaze (Evercade maker) as of late. And rumors have been swirling about the first 3 games coming to Evercade like the first 3 Tomb Raider ones are.
Industry insider Dusk Golem reveals that there is no Resident Evil 1 Remake in the works. Instead, Capcom are reportedly in active development of Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica.
RE Zero would be better to do first over RE1 because they can tie the story into RE1 more.
The original RE Remake was weird because Rebecca never mentioned anything about what happened in Zero and it felt so disjointed because Zero was developed during the Remake and they clearly didn't share any notes with one another.
