This has raised question marks all over the internet into what Capcom may be "considering", Well let me tell you why the series isn't shifting from the gamecube!! Resident Evil is made by Capcom JP and they have the rights where, when and how their game is released. CAPCOM USA may modify it but can only distribute the finished product (from Shinji Mikami’s Team) Bill Gardner is head of Capcom USA not Japan!!!!!!!
Still not convinced??

“Everyone must be surprised because the Biohazard series is now on the GameCube, but I have a clear and strong opinion about being able to enjoy all of the Biohazard games on one system. Therefore the series will be GameCube exclusive. From now on, games aren't limited to graphics only -- a balance must be reached between fun gameplay and graphic enjoyment. I feel if it isn't like this, the media itself will be endangered. Among game systems focused on graphics, we're aiming to show Nintendo's philosophy of 'fun games'.”- “Because we don't want to force our users to have to buy many systems to play the Biohazard games, we've decided to focus on one console: GameCube.”

"A rumor that Biohazard (Overseas name: Resident Evil) may be supplied to platforms other than Nintendo GameCube has started on overseas web sites recently. This has no basis and is not true at all. Biohazard, Biohazard 0, Biohazard 2, Biohazard 3 - Last Escape, Biohazard Code :Veronica Complete and Biohazard 4 are due to be put on the market for Nintendo GameCube exclusively as we announced on September 13th, last year. Our plans have not changed.

Resident Evil may return to the PS2 or another console because of unknown future events (like Sega ceasing production of the dreamcast) but after Survivor 2 I wouldn’t expect any games being released on anything BUT the Nintendo gamecube for at least this generation of consoles. I'm getting rather sick of buying consoles for the series and hope they stick to the Gamecube!!! (which they are)
Res
Second off RE5,6,7, may also be Gamecube bound and exclusive but Capcom havent started making them yet!
and why compare RE o and 4 to surivior 1 and 2 survior 1 and 2 are AWFUL! 0 and 4 will rule!
After all, the Gamecube is going to get the following RE games:
Resident Evil 1
Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis
Resident Evil: Code Veronica
Resident Evil 0
Resident Evil 4
Now, the first FOUR of them are already on other consoles. So hardly excluive. Granted they'll be "remade" and the like, but after seeing Capcom's other "remade" games like RE2 on the DC and CV on the PS2, this'll add little to them.
So, that leaves the GC with 2 exclusives. Meanwhile, the PS2 has the RE: gun surviver 1 and 2.
So, the PS2 has 4 RE games, and 2 exclusves. The GC has 4 RE games and 2 exclusives. So why is the GC better off?
Sonic
N64 = Pikachu special edition
Gamecube = Resident Evil Special Edition
