These posts that will appear over the next few days are about individual games developers and what their attitude was and now is to Nintendo (You never know I might be able to get a game for one). This one is about Capcom (Duh)and so I shall begin:

The N64 is a quality console but lacks in 3rd party support and one of these developers go by the name of Capcom. This company has been a key figure during the rise of the Playstation in the form of Resident Evil. The N64 though did enlist the aid of this giants in the form of REsident Evil 2 a classic game but Sony got their hands on 4 Resident Evil titles and so Capcom could be accused of being one of many developers and were only giving the N64 a taste whilst Sony received a mouth full.

Well I believe this is about to change and not without good reason one being Resident Evil 0. The Nintendo only title first slated for the N64 but shifted over to the Gamecube. This shows that Capcom hasn't deserted their Nintendo owning fans and with Resident Evil 4 confirmed for the GC makes me think that maybe the Resident Evil series will become a permenant resident to the Nintendo camp. The original Resident Evil is also rumoured for to be a Gamecube title and heavily advanced as well.

My other reason comes in the form of two new releases The legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages and Seasons. N64 magazine called it the best 2-D Zelda's ever and even gives Majora's Mask a run for it's money. Well done Nintendo, but of course Nintendo didn't make it, oh yeah Shiguru Miyamto played an active roll in its development but it was mainly made by Capcom.

So there you have it Capcom have comitted themselves to the Nintendo cause now if only we can get our mitts on Devil may cry...

Capcom have developed some great games over the past decade, and longer. They obviously have a very good relationship with Nintendo, having been given the responsibility of the Zelda licence for the GBC. Nintendo have also trusted Capcom with the Mickey Mouse licence, which could be rather profitable.

Capcom are also responsible for the 'Breath of Fire' games, parts 1 & 2 appeared on the SNES, 3 & 4 on the Playstation, and the next one multiformat.

And need I say anymore than Street Fighter....

I think they should convert all of the Resi games (with the possible exception of Gun Survivor) to all platforms - they are that good.

I love Resident Evil Games, if a Resigame is on the GameCube then I must play it :-)
