Capcom has confirmed Resident Evil 5 will not be ported to the Nintendo Wii.

"I think, while Resident Evil 4 is a great game, its appeal was limited somewhat to maniac players," Resident Evil 5 and Lost Planet 2 producer Jun Takeuchi told Kotaku.

"With RE5, I wanted to bring the series to a larger audience. I think its important to do the same for the next RE."

"With the difference between hardware specs for the Wii and the PS3, porting might be hard. We currently have no plans."

He also confirmed "the producer for Resident Evil 6 hasn't been decided yet."
