Hopefully they don't plan a port or anything like that but perhaps a new adventure after Darkside Chronicles. With their Framework engine being ported to Wii it's evident they plan on releasing more types of Wii games after all, otherwise they could continue using Cavia's robust engine.

The part that becomes more difficult is figuring out how they would make it work on wii. Saying you can get some nice lighting effects on wii and saying that means RE5 could be possible on the wii is totally different.  First off, the game engine would need to be optimized to deal with the wiis slower CPU and less memory. Then you have to de-res all your textures. Any shaders that use ray tracing would be history. Then you have to rebuild all your 3D assets ( character models, objects, and environments) with lower polygons because the wii cannot render the same amount of polys in game without being un playable. To make RE:5 on wii would mean a total re-build of the game, quite different than the Re4 wii make. I doubt capcom would put the time and money like that into developing this game for a system that sees diminishing returns on mature rated titles.

"Saying you can get some nice lighting effects on wii and saying that means RE5 could be possible on the wii is totally different."

I'm glad that a big developer can come out and admit they were wrong about something. You don't see that a whole lot these days.

There is this recent rumour: 
 
Capcom Bringing MT Framework To Nintendo Wii

Great. If they're going to port the game, I really hope they remove Sheva from the single player and fix the shitty inventory. Those are two of the three major issues that kept me from buying Resident Evil 5, and if they aren't fixed, I'm not buying the port(assuming there'll be one) either.

Hmmm, I would say they should instead release it but change the main character to Leon.  Make sheeva a little girl who wont fuck up the game for you and turn the black zombies into white zombies, and make the game in spain so the white zombies fit....
That would make a much better game.

Sure, except it would be nothing like RE4 on iphone and my last comment stands true. If anything it's the programming of the engine that would be the bigger undertaking, reducing texture resolution and polycounts is something any noob intern modeler can do with some success fast.

if its going to look anything like modern warfare reflex, why even bother >_> of course thats my opinion, im sure people with just Wii's will disagree

Heh, you don't often hear publishers/developers say they're wrong..

Maybe they should bring the game to Wii, the RE4 Wii Port is considered the best version of that game and since RE5 is very similar, this would probably be a pretty damn good game too.
