I hope they do port RE5, RE6 and RE7.
Those ones haven't seen a release in any Nintendo console since RE5's release.

Still, I will be getting all three of these for sure.
I'm not a fan of 5 or 6, so I can't relate, and I haven't played 7.

Sadly the switch will not get them. They were created with current gen in mind. Re2 remake would have to be compromised a lot.
Depends on the team porting the games, as Doom and Wolfenstein 2 didn't suffer much at all and play great on the Switch.

Not really, they suffer from a lot of dropped frames. Plus they look blurry, great that they can port them, but they couldn’t really compare to its big brothers.

It doesn’t have to be RE2 Remake. The 0 and 1 versions will be the remastered, originally from GameCube ones as far as I know. So there’s no reason we couldn’t get the same 2 and 3 versions. I’ve a feeling they’ll come at a later date. Not like Capcom to miss out on an opportunity.

No one would rebuy 2 and 3 in their original form. There wouldn’t be any money in it, at least 1 was technically remade and it was the better version instead of bringing it in it’s original form.
