Capcom are pretty well known to the Wii fanbase for providing some of the best ports and remakes currently on the system. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition remains one of the most critically acclaimed Wii games of all time (it's sold about 1.6 million copies worldwide, as well), and Capcom are hoping to continue their success with a remake of the 360 horror-hit Dead Rising and, to a lesser extent, a straight port of the GameCube title Resident Evil 0 in Japan.
Some interesting information has emerged from Japanese gaming bulletin board 2ch, which has allegedly been obtained from the latest issue of the Japanese publication Famitsu. The board claims that Famitsu have announced a full remake of Resident Evil 2 for the Wii akin to the remake of Resident Evil on the GameCube.
Parts of the game supposedly take part from a viewpoint similar to Resident Evil 4, with addition story elements and a new knight-like "swordsman" creature apparently confirmed as new content.
This story is currently 100% rumour for now until we hear further information from either Famitsu, other people who have bought the magazine or Capcom themselves. Stay with N-Europe for the latest news as it breaks.
