Capcom USA says no to Resident Evil 0 port…twice

080609re0.jpgWhen Capcom brought Okami to the Wii, no one expected great sales, but the fans wanted it. Unfortunately, they don’t feel the same way about Resident Evil 0.

Resident Evil 0 has been ported to the Wii in Japan. It looks like Capcom has asked their North American division if they wanted to localize it not once, but twice. Both times, Capcom USA gave the same answer. Christian Svensson answered a fan query on the company’s message boards:

Nothing is ever final, but we’ve been asked twice if we’ve wanted to bring it Westward and twice we’ve declined.

In response to whether or not the game is available to those who never played it, Svensson answered:

There’s thousands of used copies on Ebay and at Gamestop and given the outcry against the project when Japan announced it on these boards and others, it’s pretty obvious that it’s not wanted by gamers here. To answer this question more directly, no, we aren’t manufacturing any more ZeroGC at this point.

    Good! This game would be pointless to play using the Wiimote with it's tank controls. I like this game, but I would rather play the Cube version.
