Det japanske konsolmagasin Dengeki, har haft et godt interview med selveste Shinji Mikami omkring Capcom’s kommende Resident Evil 0, et spil der oprindeligt var tiltænkt N64. I et interviewet fortæller han en masse omkring den kommende stortitel.
I interviewet bliver Shinji Mikami bl.a. spurgt om, hvorfor spillet blev stoppet på N64 og derefter sat til udgivelse på GameCube, og han svarede følgende:
"It was becoming impossible to fit everything on a cartridge. [laughs..] We consulted Nintendo frequently, but we decided any ideas to fit the game on cartridge format wouldn’t be economically viable. The GameCube was announced shortly thereafter, and then we decided to resume development."
Han blev også spurgt om hvor langt spillet er i udviklingen, og dertil svarede Mikami-san følgende:
"Having already finished the remake of Biohazard 1 for the GameCube, we used much of that process as a foundation for designing backgrounds and character motion in Biohazard 0. It’s a time consuming process, but overall development is progressing well - Most of our knowledge of the GameCube is based on the remake of Biohazard 1, so some elements in Biohazard 0 are similar. The characters and backgrounds such as the train are different, but the motion is similar at times."
GameReactor får forhåbentlig chancen for at se nærmere på spillet ved E3 messen i år i Los Angeles.
