Already knee-deep in Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network title develpment, Capcom VP Christian Svensson is hinting that that he "fully expects" Capcom to publish WiiWare games in the West.
"WiiWare has some interesting challenges in terms of interface," he tells Gamasutra. "I wouldn't say challenges: both challenges and benefits. The controls are different and frankly we'd like to make good use of the Wii Remote. We have a couple of concepts internally that I think would be perfect for Wii, as well as other platforms."
He also candidly speaks with Gamasutra about the potential for the company to acquire a Western developer saying that they wouldn't "acquire anyone that [they] haven't done a game with," adding that "chemistry is so critical." Start placing yours bets now -- rumors have suggested a Dead Rising sequel is in the hands of a Western developer, and the critically acclaimed Irvine, California-based Ready at Dawn's port of Okami ships this week.

Now for something relevant to the topic:
I think that if they put the same amount of quality that Zak and Wiki had, I'm completely on board with what they hypothetically offer. Capcom is one of my favorite companies.
Less chance of sucking. :O)
Inafune always talks about money being a limitation. Cutting all that distribution cost (save for licensing, pff) has got to make going back to that well, in a proper manner, much more appealing.
Same to you, Konami.
@ XerxesTWD

You read my mind. Perfect place for mega man
That said, Phoenix Wright-related stuff please.
