Dear Reader:
More Dead Rising Wii news next week, or more Capcom Wii news next week? You decide...
This comes from the Capcom Unity boards…

Hey Sven, just out of curiosity, how come you guys chose Dead Rising over Lost Planet for Wii? I’m just curious because it seems like LP would be the easier of the two games to port over, considering that it’s an FPS.
The number of zombies on screen in the 360 version of DR at once was pretty ridiculous. Factor in the load times and all the different moves, it just seems like translating all this content for the Wii will take a considerable amount of effort. Again, Lost Planet seems like it would have been the easier choice.
Is there some kind of major discrepancy in the hardware requirements between the two games that lead to the choice? Also, was it your call of Capcom in Osaka’s?

Let’s discuss next week. I can’t comment until then when a bit more will be clear. :)
Now, does that mean we will hear more about Dead Rising, or Lost Planet? My money is on Dead Rising. Thanks to Simon for the heads up!
