Capcom replies to Resident Evil PSP petition

Posted Aug 23, 2007 at 9:01PM by QJ Staff Listed in: News, Games Tags: Capcom

Petitions usually don't receive much attention from the side where the petition was addressed to, so news of one such petition catching a developer's attention is like a flying pigs moment. Earlier this month, we spread the word of a petition to Capcom that requested a Resident Evil game over UMD for the PlayStation Portable. And guess what? Capcom saw it and replied.

"As we plan for future games the team will definitely consider the fans and specifically your petition. It does have impact. Keep me updated on the number of signatures. If you get over 10,000 that will draw significant attention," said a representative from Capcom via email. The message was sent to the author of the petition.

As the petition stands, it's currently up to a fifth of the quota required to attract huge attention. And anyone who still hasn't signed yet but wishes to should head over to the petition site over the Read link below. There's a chance to actually make a difference here, so be a gamer and jot down that John Hancock.

Many thanks to hunter_alien for the tip!

they'll consider it when they get enough signatures that they think it will break even with sales and dev costs.

# I want resident evil for the psp — Guest 2007-08-23 18:45

Capcom should reconsider....

I mean what's cooler than killing Zombies... killing Zombies the portable way ^_-

# Word. — Guest 2007-08-23 18:46

Outbreak File#3 or a game with Resident Evil 4 control scheme.

# ... — dexcaliber 2007-08-23 20:21

The psp has been out for how long now? and they will consider it after the petition gets to 10,000? WTF!!! RE for the PSP should have been out long ago.

# Hey dexcaliber.... — Guest 2007-08-23 21:16

# Final Fantasy VII Remake Petition — HsuKen 2007-08-23 22:17

I followed the link to sign it, and stumbled upon a petition for a remake of Final Fantasy VII...

Please take a look at this petition, it is about to reach 20,000 signatures! Please forward this to someone who can make this happen.

http://www.petitiononline.com/ff7remke/petition.html

# im just happy that capcom gave us word that if the psp crowd is interested enough theyd make an RE :) — Guest 2007-08-23 22:38

# DIGG THIS ARTICLE!!! — Guest 2007-08-23 22:55

If you DIGG this article, then more people will sign it! We NEED RE for PSP, so PLEASE do your bit :)

# ughh.... — Guest 2007-08-23 23:37

damn, FFVII was not that great. People just like to jump on the bandwagon. VII was a good game, but inferior to other final fantasies (VIII, X, VI, XII)

# haha — Guest 2007-08-23 23:39

they already got the half (5000 for the non-mathematics-genius) after one day!

# ...... — Guest 2007-08-24 00:49

its not one day. This Petition been out for like a month...

# Capcom always listen — Guest 2007-08-24 02:26

Once i asked for information related to a possibly release of RE4 on the xbox and they answer my email very quickly capcom crew are really cool

# ff7 rocks — Guest 2007-08-24 03:36

yay please sign the ff7 remake petition

http://www.petitiononline.com/ff7remke/petition.html

20109 last time i checked

# coool! — Guest 2007-08-24 04:23

man, thats really cool of capcom. I really didnt thnik major dev.'s ever listened to petitions,

^_^

# LMAO — Guest 2007-08-24 06:12

Errr no, Shadownoob. The game was spectacular, and if you were old enough to comprehend the game at its place in time, it was a masterpiece without a doubt. Japanese RPGs would have died off if it wasn't for FF7's release. For its time, the graphics were unbelievable, the CG was superb, the maturity level in RPGs was raised due to FF7's content, and the story was anything short of bad ass. BTW, FFVIII sucked ass.

# mmmm — Guest 2007-08-24 06:23

No...quit whining. FF7 is a masterpiece in its current state. Remakes never live up the the original...just take a look at MGS: Twin Snakes, CS: Source, FF1, FF2, FF3, etc. Besides new Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, and Kingdom Hearts games, Square Enix doesn't produce AAA games or remakes that are critically and commercially successful.

# Stupid petition — Guest 2007-08-24 06:51

I signed, just for help, but WHY THE HELL anyone would want to play RE1 on an UMD wehn we can play it on the MStick?

And why not make a petition to Capcom releases Resident Evil - Code Veronica for the PSP. It's one of the best RE games... I think that RE4 would be interesting too.

# Petition — Guest 2007-08-24 07:29

I am surprised!, great idea, let's also start a petition for one console for the 8th generation, and let's end the console war and buying different machines for different tittles!!!

# Um — Guest 2007-08-24 07:40

I don't think people are asking for a remake to be released on the PSP. I personally want an original RE to be released, hopefully in the play style of RE4 or any of the others actually....except for Umbrella Chronicles for the Wii.

# . — Guest 2007-08-24 08:24

Its gonna reach over 10,000 i bet, its almost 8100 now

# wow!! — Guest 2007-08-24 08:29

last time i check it has 3669 signatures and now 8040, people must realy want it to be on psp if it got 5000 sigatures over the night.

# here is the link for the petition — Guest 2007-08-24 08:52

http://www.petitiononline.com/pspres/petition.html

# Looking good!!! — Guest 2007-08-24 09:46

It's looking more and more like Capcom might get round to making Resident Evil for the PSP, as there are 8510 signatures now!

Not that far off the 10,000 mark now!!! :)

# show some more cleavage!!! — Guest 2007-08-24 11:32

# wow — Guest 2007-08-24 12:05

9160 signatures. Looks like it might be considered now.

# sweet — Guest 2007-08-24 12:11

Went from 2k yesterday when I signed it up to 9160 already? I think we'll get the 840 left easy and the more we get the more Capcom will know how much we want the game and will be all the more convinced to make it.

# OVER 9000! — Guest 2007-08-24 12:32

we only need a few more signatures and Capcom will hopefully consider RE on psp!

# wooo — Guest 2007-08-24 13:38

almost 9500 now, it should catch capcom's eyes that so many people signed in such a short time. it'd be nice to have a psp release b4 5 comes out to kinda tide us over till then. Nintendo got a couple crappy RE games, GBC had that horrible whatever the eff it was, and DS just had a quick, non graphically enhanced version of RE1 with some pen action. Capcom needs to release a totally new side story PSP game to show Nintendo what power Sony really has in it's system.

Bring RE back home to sony!!

# Brits are idiots — Guest 2007-08-24 14:08

Jesus *****ing *****. It´s 9571

Numbers are exploding. YESSSS

# Wow More Than 9160 Now Since 2 Hours Ago!?! — CHUCKINGROCKSATSPACESHIPS 2007-08-24 14:09

Signed and hoping for a worthy game.

# Woah — Guest 2007-08-24 14:26

# In reply to Spectre — Lunisneko 2007-08-24 16:53

As much as I agree that 7 was a great game, I think you're doubly stupid for *****ing out Shadownet and then making a total ass out of yourself saying 8 "sucked ass." Looks like you're the one jumping bandwagons. 8 was great, so was 7. If you don't agree then you simply don't understand.

# We hit 10000 — Guest 2007-08-24 16:54

its passed 10,000

# im 10102 — Guest 2007-08-24 16:59

i want RE game on psp but i hate RE4 controls.

i pretty much liked the controls on re1/2/3.

but hey a new and better control scheme would be nice, a gears of wars type maybe?

the new silent hill for psp is very cool and i will definitely be getting that.

# yeah dude — Guest 2007-08-24 17:07

final fantasy 7 is one of the greatest game of all time. it was supposed to be on the nintendo 64, imagine if that happened, nintendo would have been king of the rpg's, but no the n64 disk drive is so messed up it cannot contain the 3-4 cd disk of final fantasy hence they opt for ps1. thus the fall of nintendo on late 90's.

ff8 and ff9 where improvements over ff7, if not for ff7 the latter games would not be that great.

and i disagree, ff7 is a million way better than ff6.

the ff series is a good succession of great rpg's.

# You may hate me for this but — Guest 2007-08-24 18:50

The best Resident Evil with great scary factor was Resident Evil Rebirth for the gamecube, best remake ever and very scary and had alot of atmosphere in it compared to Code Veronica. CV just isnt as great as RE Rebirth. Its also a Gamecube exclusive but sometimes Capcom cheats and ports games that were exclusive to Nintendo to Sony platforms like RE4.

# lol that was FASSSTTTT — Guest 2007-08-24 19:03

someone notify capcom we've passed 10k!!!

# final fantasy 7 — Guest 2007-08-24 22:21

Final fantasy 7 was my favorite final fantasy, it was probably the best. But you all need to calm down, yes shadownet ff7 IS overplayed, but because it was pretty damn good. Spectre, first of all what is that name, second you are the reason people who hate overplayed games never played ff7 and still manage to hate it. also you have no right to yell about how ff8 "sucked ass" while your complaining about somebody not liking ff7, theyre just games its the players own personal opinion as to what they like and dislike, unless your talking about ff10 lol. lunisneko, name again. but thank you. VSG, N64 failed, really? I seem to remember everybody i know pretty much having and LOVING their N64s, even your general claim of a lack of rpgs makes no sense to me. You seriously cant remember Zelda? This is definately a matter of opinion and perhaps some would disagree with me, but, Ill admit it. I loved paper mario. And lastly why must we all forgot. were talking about resident evil here. go to a crisis core page or something. its not like there arent dozens of them.

# LIKE duh!!!!! we all will love it on the psp — Guest 2007-08-26 05:48

man we realy need this on the psp

i became a fan of this since the time i played re2

thx(if realsed)

# is 17000 more than 10000? — Guest 2007-08-26 07:43

# FF7!!! — Guest 2007-08-27 06:20

TO the people that sead ff7 wasnt all that great! ARE U CRAZY!!! You must be smokin CRACK!!! FF7 is one of the best games ever and the best FF ever!!! BY far the best story line in all FF!!!!!!!!

PLAY IT AGAIN!!!! AND STOP SMOKIN THAT CRACK!!

# Idiot — Guest 2007-09-03 22:02

You're a stupid ****ing ****.

# Diagree — Guest 2007-09-03 22:08

@Spectre

MGS: Twin Snakes is a great remake, I love it a thousand times more than the original, and it's basically a direct pull from the source content of the original, something I truly appreciate. I would LOVE if the same was done for FF7, same story, same progression, just updated graphics, maybe character voices. Hell, I don't even care if they update the music, the original musical score ruled all. But I'd gladly sign on to have it remade with updated style.
