Hi there

I was wondering if there is an english version of this game.
The game also freezes frequently.
Is this only a problem on DC and should other versions like on xbox be ok?

Thanks

Um, this is a little late, but are you saying there is a Resident Evil for NES?

of course! also has siren and silent hill 4! :P
sorry guys, i've let my stupid thought enter in this thread... :ala:
am i understanding well? resident for a nes emulator? :bouncy:

The game Bio Hazard for NES does in fact exist - it's unlicensed:

Bio Hazard (Unl) [!]

[Miretank]

... i said to myself that everything is possible :P
i need to get one for me then :)
and thanx for showing these screens-- the game also looks good

[bcrew1375]

RE for NES. Who would have thought!? :P

[RCduck7]

Yeah, i'm still here.
I have it on nesterdc (on dreamcast of coursse) but as i mentioned it's japanese and the game freezes a lot.
But if you save frequently you should be able to go on.
The game on nes is also much less actionpacked (the first res wasn't that actionpacked in the first place).
When you counter a zombie you get an other screen with a bar that goes left and right and you must try to hit the button every tine the bar is in the middle to attack.
Don't know much more if there are any other moves though.

Well I'll be damned Resident Evil on the NES.

[RCduck7]

:P

Yep, and did you know capcom got their inspiration from the "Sweet Home" game on the nes when they came up with resident evil.
It's very similar.

Great drawing from Zelda there Mongo.

Try Resident Evil Gaiden for Gameboy Color. It's in english and this NES version seems to be a rip off of it.

[RCduck7]

Thank you for bringing it up.
I totally forgot about this game.
I have seen it on the net a few years back and i thought it wasn't released in Europe, not sure though.

Reviews are a bit mixed i must say but i'll defenitly will get it.

[jessman(reborn)]

Well, it doesn't run too well, on Gnuboy for the Dreamcast, but it'll NEVER freeze, I'll give you that. The game really isn't that great, but it's you're a Biohazard/Resident Evil fan, it's worth playing at least once.

[RCduck7]

As a collector i think it's cool to have.
I found it almost like a parody on a lesser system that's not 3D.

Like scary movie lol

[jessman(reborn)]

Heh. Never thought of it like that. The sounds and animations DID make me laugh though. They were originally gonna make a 3D resident evil for GBC, but it turned into Alone in the Dark 4 later on. They BETTER make one for the DS, lol. Capcom seems to prefer Nintendo when it comes to Resident Evil.

[RCduck7]

They did make a resident evil 2 for the Tiger handheld.
How did that turned out?
Was it any good?
Was it only in black and white?

I may sound a bit stupid firing all these questions, but i'm from Belgium and a lot of stuff like the tiger didn't make it over here.


PS: just found this link, it's russian but it seems to cover resident evil games that were canned during development.

Heh. Have you played Resident Evil Zero? It was gonna be exclusively on the n64! Ha ha ha! Nah. I've never played the Tiger system that you're talking about. I do live in the US, but I'm WAAAY up in Alaska. No we don't live in igloos and I'm not a native american. I'm italian. ahem. Sorry, I just wanted to clear that up, lol.

[RCduck7]

Ok, good to know. ;)
I knew about that resident evil zero that was canned for N64, i have seen it in a magazine.
It's one of the few resident evils that i didn't play yet as i try to look out for bargains instead of buying them new as i used to do.
I have been playing Res 4 with a mate and i must say it was a very good choice the changes they made in this game.
I wish they had done the same thing with metal gear solid 3 as the gameplay feels a bit broke and dated to me.

[RCduck7]

I have won on Ebay resident evil gaiden for the gbc, a Tiger handheld and 6 times resident evil 2 for it. ;)
I will sell the other remaining resident evil 2's on Ebay gradually.
I will let you know my experience on them once they arrived and get around playing them.

That resident evil 3D they were working on for the gbc looked intresting.
A bit ropey graphics to be on a gbc but judging from the screenshots it looked certainly like resident evil.

Cheers

I never thought resident evil stylings could work in a NES game. I mean, the menu format is essentially exactly the same.

[RCduck7]

They did a good job at the menu, but off coursse the graphics are flat and not as detailed.
But becausse they stayed in their games to the same old menu, it's instantly recognisable.

This RE NES ROM is actually Chinese, not Japanese. Capcom had nothing to do with it either, it came out in like 1998-2000 and was made by a Chinese pirate company. It was never official.

Here's a link to a site that has info on it:

http://re.gamefan.ru/bio_nes.php

Its in Russian though... so here's a quick translation without the pics(if you wanna check out all the pics that are suppose to be in between some of the writing, go to the actual site):

The 'Resident Evil' series is amazingly popular worldwide and exists on numerous systems, from mobile phones to 'Nintendo GameCube'. Now, our little chinese brothers decided to port the first 'Resident' to ... 'Dendy' (the russian analogue of NES -trans.)! Yes, you heard me right, NES. Let's have a look at what they came up with.

The first thing that surprised me after loading it was the fact that it was dated 2003, heh, there are still games being developed for 'Dendy', I guess we've buried it too early ;). The starting sequence consists of a ton of pictures and Chinese hieroglyphs. Yes, sad as it is, all game's text and dialogues are in Chinese.








After the starting sequence we're offered to start the game! But the choice of actions here is small: new game, load game, easy or hard; no options, no character selection, we'll have to play as Jill.

The protagonists enter the mansion, here are Barry and Jill going into the dining-hall, heh, the graphics look horrible even for 'NES', but, at least, the characters are somehow cognate. But this beeping which is called 'sound' on NES is ripping your ears, but, I think, it's not necessary to listen to it at all = )










The mansion looks somewhat familiar, most of the quests haven't been touched, although they look a bit funny in the 8-bit format. And we haven't been left without some new stuff! Remember that security lock on the 2-nd floor which could be opened by reading a note from Barry? So, this lock is portrayed as a terminal now, so the code needs to be entered manually. There's probably something else, but I haven't continued playing.




About the gameplay, well, it looks exactly as 'Gaiden's' ('RE' for 'GameBoy Color'), as well as the battle system (strangely, it haven't amused me). But, unlike 'Gaiden', which contained only zombies and that annoying boss, 'RE1' for 'Dendy' has all the enemies from the original 'PlayStation' version!






Of course, an average gamer won't find anything interesting in this game, but it's a must-have for a true fan.

Well i hope that helps out all of you who are interested!!

[RCduck7]

Thanks for the great info cruedude.
I wonder why the russians have such a good and devoted site.

PS: I finaly have my resi 2 for the tiger game.com handheld but i still don't have my handheld i bought on Ebay over a month ago. :yucky:
Had to take it to paypal to sort things out and i'm still waiting what comes out of it.

[CaCuS]

[Clements]

NesterDC is a NES emulator for Dreamcast.
