Capcom ready to announce “something like” Bionic Commando, Lost Planet for Wii?

“Possible… The ‘or something like this’ part [Bionic Commando/Lost Planet] we could talk about in a couple weeks perhaps.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/Vice-President of Strategic Planning & Business Development of Capcom
All long job titles aside, I’m sure 99% of the hardcore gaming population knows which event will be taking place in a few weeks. Yep, E3. Capcom has supported the Wii very well by delivering Zack & Wiki, Resident Evil titles, and Okami. More support from the company would definitely aid third party support on the system. The comment from Mr. Svensson seems to hint at a new IP; however, this could be a spin off of Bionic Commando or Lost Planet.

I laugh at “supported the Wii very well”. Capcom has been milking the Wii by making so many old ports and one IP in the systems life and that is considered good support? They are bringing the goods to the PC-360-PS3 with Bionic Commando, Devil May Cry 4 & Street Fighter 4 + other games. Compared to that, their Wii support is better than others but still sucks. The Wii is like any other Nintendo console, never considered good for 3rd party serious efforts.

The games are good, but the support would be better with more new IP.

At least they’re are porting good games. And they’re actually pretty good ports too.
