While details were sparse at yesterday’s press conference, Capcom is indeed bringing Dead Rising to the Nintendo Wii, the news was broken by Japanese publication Famitsu.
The Wii version will be a port of the Xbox 360 release with added motion-sensitive controls, a Resident Evil 4-esque over the shoulder view, and feature new content. The decision to bring Dead Rising to the Wii was made on the successful sales of Resident Evil 4.
While the Wii port will not be able to render that many on-screen zombies as the Xbox 360 version, Capcom is promising to retain much of its original look and feel as possible.
