According to a Reuters report (translated by Kotaku), Capcom's Chief Financial Officer, Kazuhiko Abe, has said the company's plans regarding porting 360/PS3 games to the Wii are not yet decided.

"We have not decided whether we are doing it or not doing it," said Abe. He added: "Up until now, after releasing our PS3 and Xbox 360 games, we have brought them to the Wii. Basically, this is the approach we are considering taking."

This means we could see more Wii releases based on Xbox 360 and PS3 games. So far we've only seen Dead Rising make its way to Wii, but maybe Resident Evil 5 and others are on the way.

Also, +1 for Zombie Parrots!

Interestingly, I watched a side-by-side comparison video of the 360 and Wii versions, and whilst there are unquestionably more zombies on-screen in the 360 version, the kill count was higher at every single point of the Wii game. Plus, the zombies that were there seemed to be much more aggressive. I certainly was surprised, the Wii game appears to be potentially more fun.

Yes Dead Rising Wii is out i have had it ages.

Though gameplay does differ from from the 360 and does not look as good I do prefer it as it is easyer to follow the story and rescue the survivers.

Is Dead Rising Wii even out yet?! Given the performance of the likes of House of the Dead or MadWorld, I can't see it selling particularly well.
