Capcom continues to port zombies to the Wii. After their successful experiment with Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, and more recently Resident Evil 0, Capcom will port Dead Rising -- an Xbox 360 launch title, to the Nintendo Wii. The port is expected to be ready by Winter of this year, and will bring some Wiimote action along with reduced visual fidelity, and a lower zombie count. Called Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop, the game will utilize the Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition engine. With a name like that, Capcom has sold it to us already but in case you need more reasons, here are the key features:

  • Utilizes the same engine as Resident Evil 4 Wii edition.

  • New level of interaction -- aim and fire guns, swing and throw weapons and shake off zombie attacks with added Wii Remote functionality

  • Huge environment -- expansive indoor and outdoor areas of the mall provide a variety of different locations to explore

  • Improved save functionality allows for more seamless gameplay

  • Hoards of enemies on screen at once resulting in non-stop, pulse-pounding action

  • Anything in the mall is at Frank's disposal

  • Grab environmental objects like umbrellas and benches to use as improvised weapons

  • Snatch items from different stores to use as weapons including golf clubs, lawnmowers, frying pans and more

  • Consume food and drink to revive health
