Online petitions rarely get the attention of the publishers that they're targeting. Not in this case, however. The official call for a
Resident Evil PSP game has earned the attention of Capcom. In an e-mail sent to the petition creator, a Capcom representative made note that for real results to be seen,
10,000 signatures would be needed: "As we plan for future games the team will definitely consider the fans and specifically your petition. It does have impact. Keep me updated on the number of signatures. If you get over 10,000 that will draw significant attention."
When we found out that Capcom was taking notice, we had to sign the petition. If you ignored the first call for signatures, make sure you
take action now: a
Resident Evil game may grace our handheld -- and who wouldn't want that?

10,000 sounds reasonable... until you notice it's only got 1749 so far. I don't think this petition is going anywhere.
Steve @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:09PM
1755
Strike009 @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:28PM
it worked with bioshock
clankman @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:30PM
Ahh, only 1817.

Hmmm, we got a quite a way to go. :(
Hopefully the great(here's hoping) sales from Silent Hill: Orgins - will motivate Capcom to make this game. How many horror-survial games are on psp?
Speaking of Capcom - where's that supposed Devil May Cry game for psp? Please don't tell me we we're going to petetion for that too.*sigh* I would rather have an orginal DMC game for psp anways - than an RE game.
kingofwale @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:42PM
the fact they actually acknowledged the petition, it means it worked.
although I love RE series, I will live with my Silent Hill demo. Thank you. :)
Alien @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:57PM
Thank you for posting this up here , because it needs as much attention as possible . Man I hope that this will work :) D:D
Random1448 @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:58PM
lol, the petition doesn't matter, there's obviously one in the works already. This is a clever marketing ploy, they use the petition someone made, to get news sites and blogs to talk about it and people are more likely to buy the game if the sign the petition to get it
Amar @ Aug 23rd 2007 6:59PM
I signed saying that the DS got one, why can't we a long time ago.
We should make up fake names to get a lot of signatures.
kingofwale @ Aug 23rd 2007 7:05PM
>I signed saying that the DS got one,
I will definitely pass on the PSP version of "Touch of the dead", that games is GARBAGE!
Alien @ Aug 23rd 2007 7:08PM
The more signatures we can get , the batter :D Man I really hope ...
Bored @ Aug 23rd 2007 8:19PM
I think the point of this is: it's a POSITIVE petition, meant to prove that people would buy a game coming out on a system where it's not represented yet.
Positive, in contrast to that childish DMC4 petition.
Psy @ Aug 23rd 2007 10:18PM
I'll be happy to sign if one of you buys me a PSP.
TwistedBishop @ Aug 23rd 2007 10:33PM
Signed. This series holds a special place in my heart from the very first game on the PS1. We're getting our super sweet God of War and Silent Hill originals; this could complete the triforce of Pure Awesomeness.
Nathaniel Gecse @ Aug 23rd 2007 10:43PM
We should be making a petition for GTA San Andreas Stories, I mean I don't care if it's split up into 3 parts and you have to fork out the money for each one I just wanna play that so bad.
Radicoon @ Aug 23rd 2007 11:24PM
Posted petition to my LJ and signed =)
matjet @ Aug 24th 2007 3:44AM
signed. there is over 3700 now.
Jeremy @ Aug 24th 2007 4:25AM
You would think what with the success Monster Hunter had on the PSP, Capcom would try to duplicate the magic with their other properties. So this may just be a gimmick, one is already in the works.
Still, doesn't hurt, I guess. Might sell in Japan, anyway.
muppetmeth @ Aug 24th 2007 4:35AM
PSP Fanboy should bump this petition every once in a while.
