Since the Wii can not support the level of graphics and the number of zombies on screen of the Xbox 360 version, Capcom has stated that they are trying to keep as many features of the Xbox 360 version as possible. Capcom has stated that they hope to be able fit up 100 zombies on screen at once. The game now takes an over the shoulder perspective, similar to Resident Evil 4.
Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop will have a different story structure than that of the Xbox 360 version. Instead of Otis continuously giving you missions via your transceiver, the game will take on a more traditional approach. Otis will give you a few sub-missions, and once those are completed, the main story will progress. This means that the player won't continually be pressured by completing tasks on time, and possibly missing aspects of the story.
The directions on the control pad will switch between weapons, and use an on-screen reticule to target enemies with a gun. The player can ward off zombies with a shake of the Wiimote. The Wiimote is also used to control your weapon. If you shake the Wiimote, it produces a stronger attack, but there is more of a backswing. Just pressing the A button unleashes a faster attack that deals less damage.
Rad Spencer, the lead character of Bionic Commando, is available in the game as a playable character.

Description
Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop is a port of the original game for the Xbox 360. Capcom decided to port the game due to the critical success of Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition. Players take control of Frank West, a journalist, who was dropped off at the Willamette Mall in Colorado to try and uncover the mystery behind a zombie outbreak. Frank can use almost anything in the environment to defend himself; such as chainsaws, lawn mowers, katanas, guitars, teddy bears and water guns. Largely the game is built off of the Wii Edition of Resident Evil 4. Most of the guns as well as the perspective and control style are borrowed. As well there is now a weapon upgrade system, largely consisting of the same exact weapons from Resident Evil 4. Cletus now serves as the trader, allowing you to buy and sell weapons and ammo just like with the vendor in Resident Evil 4.Differences in the Wii Version
