Capcom have announced a version of the critically acclaimed Xbox 360 Zombie Shopping Simulator, Dead Rising, for Nintendo's Wii aptly named, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop. According to the Press Release, the Wii version came about through the overwhelming success of Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles on the system and looks to be drawing on a modified version of the Resi 4 game engine.

So far these hand full of screens do show a bit of promise, but we're still not looking at an uber-high def zombie game for Wii, though the promise of "hordes of enemies on screen at once" is tantalising.

Isn't it "Chop till you drop" ?

Just a shame that the Wii isn't capable of having 1000000 zombies on screen, but can't win them all.

What gaming system can?

I can't understand the praise this game gets... I played the 360 version a short while back and thought it was absolutely terrible...some of the worst game design I've experienced. Each to their own I guess.
