Dead Rising on Wii will have “a hell of a lot” of zombies – UPDATE

Update: There seems to be some uncertainty about whether this news applies to the 360 or Wii version. The actual question posed to Svensson was, “So if the wii ends up fitting about 100 zombies on screen, wouldn’t it mean that it would be on par with the 360 in terms of number?” Christian Svensson may have indeed been referring to the original game, though again, it’s still not crystal clear. Either way, the Wii version is still supposed to have a large number of zombies and as has been stated by the developers before, they are aiming for 100 in the final version. We’ll have to see how things play out.
The zombie count in Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop has been an element of both mystery and uncertainty. No one really knows for sure how many enemies will be present in the Wii version of Dead Rising. Capcom’s Christian Svensson is taking on the case, however, and is willing to enlighten fans about the zombie count. “Take the car underground, day 2-3, run em down.. you’ll see several hundred rendered in scene,” he said. “I can’t quote you exact numbers because I don’t know what they are. But it’s a hell of a lot.”
I’m sure we’re not going to see a ton of enemies every instant throughout the entire game, but in other areas, there’s going to be a very respectable amount.
