Capcom Bring MT Framework to Wii

[Rock Raiyu]

Capcom uses their MT Framework engine to make games shine on the 360 and PS3. It looks like Capcom now has plans to bring that same engine over to the Wii, all in the name of saving development costs.

Today' Nikkei Industrial has a report that confirms plans to bring a 360/PS3 engine over to Wii, although MT Framework is not named specifically. It's almost 100% confirmed that the MT Framework engine is the one being discussed. Making this engine work on Wii will eventually save Capcom 1/5 of simultaneous development costs, and 1/3 from separate games. Thanks to René for the heads up!

Wel if they put a Xbox360/ PS3 engine into the Wii, it could be very nice!!!

Resident Evil 5 and Lost Planet run on this engine. Resident Evil 5... Wii port anyone?

Yay, I hope so! I played it on my PC and it wasn't too bad, but the 4Wii played so much better thanks to the Wiimote

Yeah, I agree. I'm going to buy a PS3 in may. If there's a Wii version announced by that time I'll wait for that, otherwhise I'll go for the Alternate Edition with Wand controls which should be similar to Wiimote + Nunchuk... Except I don't think holding a DualShock in one hand is going to be comfortable.

tell them to push the lmits of any console and they do it... capcom are always doing it right (as far as i have seen)

Interesting, but until we see some results from this, I have my doubts about what they could do with the Framework on the Wii.

don't have an idea how things exactly work, but don't such engines depent on the systems/ graphic standarts they are made for? so wouldn't it be far impossible to adapt the mt framework to wii without changes/ losses in quality as the chips are less powerfull ? yes, would be nice to see a re4 on wii, but it's surely gonna' kinda alternative or special version of the engine:.
