Well since it was just announced (sorta) for Japan, it's not surprising. If the interest is there, I'm sure it will come.[ Oracle ] [ Level 21 ] [ Rank: 182 ]bids
1@apujanata,
According to Christian Svensson (Capcom Entertainment Inc. - Vice-President of Strategic Planning & Business Development) there are no plans for a Western release of this title at this time.[ Oracle ] [ Level 19 ] [ Rank: 508 ]bids

RE: RE:0 Wii in development"The latest issue of the prominent Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu revealed interesting tidbits that caught our attention. Aside from the excitement of playing a Japanese version of The Orange Box as early as May, our feet went off the ground when a certain Biohazard 0 (Resident Evil 0 in the west) appeared in the list of summer releases in the land of the rising sun.
It is difficult to imagine a full remake of Capcom's Resident Evil 0 from the GameCube having no publicity at all, so we're guessing it's one of those direct ports like Resident Evil 2 and 3 from PlayStation to GameCube. However, if it will receive completely new controls in the veins of Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, it's definitely a mystery why we haven't heard of Resident Evil 0 on Wii before.
Another possible conclusion to this strange listing is that Famitsu made an honest typographical error. While we can't count out such mistake, it's definitely nice to believe that Yakuza 3 got a stellar 37 score (10/9/9/9) and Kane & Lynch are going to Japan. Our eyes are peeled for any official Nintendo announcements, so watch this space for updates!"

I agree with Laoldar, the traditional controls won't work with the Wiimote. If Capcom want to change the controls schemes then I'll definitely buy this one! I really loved RE 4 Wii Edition and thinking that we gonna play RE0 is really a good news, after all.[ Speaker ] [ Level 17 ] [ Rank: 575 ]bids

1@Mushashi,
Original RE controls won't work with the Wiimote, so it's more likely that Capcom would revamp the controls.[ Oracle ] [ Level 21 ] [ Rank: 182 ]bids
1@apujanata,
RE:0 is traditional-style RE game, if you are expecting controls like RE4, I doubt they will change like that.
Capcom monetizing the original investment in this game, REmake: Wii Edition also coming soon?[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 5 ]bids
1@apujanata,
I hope they change the controller setup. I have RE:0 GCN, but couldn't enjoy them because of the controller (I didn't play RE games other than RE4 and RE:0). My friend, who is a long time RE gamer, have finished RE:0.[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

I am sure (with 80%+ confidence) that US version will show up, sooner or later. When was the last time there is a Biohazard (Residen evil) game that were released in Japan, but not in US ? Certainly not the last 2 - 3 years, IIRC.
