Talk:Resident Evil – Code: Veronica

message: "Prior to the game's release, series' creator and producer Shinji Mikami was quoted stating that he wanted to retain the numeral progression for Resident Evil sequels debuting on PlayStation platforms, while installments debuting on other platforms would bear subtitles instead (note that this was prior to Mikami's decision to market the series to the GameCube exlusively)."
This is going to need a source as Mikami has said numerous times in interviews that the game was renamed from RE3 to CV not many months before release by Capcom despite his protests.  It wasn't his decision. Parjay 20:58, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I got that info from this early IGN preview of the game. I've tried to find an interview about Mikami's supposed intentions to name it Resident Evil 3, but couldn't find one. Jonny2x4 21:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I should have it saved somewhere with the original link.  It's an interview with himself and Hiroyuki Kobayashi, it should be available on the net as many people are talking about it across the www.  The problem I have with the "source" you have provided is that it's just an article saying "Mikami did this", without an actual quote as such.  He talks about the same thing in the book "Another Side of Biohazard": "we made RE1.9 to get back to the basic RE idea but that game changed its name to RE3, 3months before release. I still don't want to call the game RE3." Parjay 21:42, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've seen the translated version of the "Another Side" interview from REHorror, but it only mentions the RE1.9 thing. Mikami only says in that interview that Code: Veronica is the only sequel to retain the horror atmosphere of the first game (as opposed to RE2 and RE3, which were more action/sci-fi oriented) and mentions that for him RECV is the true RE2 for him.

replies: text: Yeh it's in his other interviews.  The point of that one, however, was to illustrate that Nemesis only became "RE3", three months before release.  CV was in production even before RE Nemesis was announced either at all nor as 1.9 or 2.1, while CV was developed as RE3 up until those three months; hence his reluctance to even call Nemesis 3 to this day.

replies: text: I'm well aware RECV was in production before RE3, but was Code: Veronica ever officially referred by Capcom as Resident Evil 3 publically? Since the game's official unveilment in late 1998, it wasn't called anything but Code: Veronica. Jonny2x4 23:08, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Was Wesker's Report really released in PAL regions? I'm browsing used copies in auction sites, but they all come bundled with the Devil May Cry demo, no one mentiones the Wesker's Report DVD. --Mika1h 12:09, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wesker's Report came free with Code Veronica X in the U.K. Pal version.  Not sure about Europe. Devil May Cry demo came free with X as well, a second disc in the box.  WR had its own separate dvd case. Parjay 14:07, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The game is available for PS3 and X360, and it listed there, why not include PS4, if it's the same PS2 version for PS3 and X360??  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 179.7.211.46 (talk) 15:16, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Because it's not the same version. The PS3/X360 release is a dedicated HD remaster port. The PS4 version is just an emulated PS2 version. We don't list emulated releases in the infobox. See Template:Infobox video game. TarkusAB 20:55, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

message: I still have my doubts about the authencity of the claims from the IGN articles linked in the article, describing Code Veronica as being the true sequel to Resident Evil 2 while Resident Evil 3 was the spin-off. Once you read both articles, there is no direct quote from the developers to confirm this. The claims are just speculations based on the journalists perception. There is still lots of debate regarding this but I think the answer shouldn't be based on a Western journalist's own speculation.Jonipoon (talk) 16:01, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it has been mentioned in interviews. I will take a look over the next couple days to find an interview where it's mentioned. If I can't find anything, we can reword it so it's clear it's journalist analysis and not fact. TarkusABtalk 16:15, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

text: I'm going to search Japanese sources next but the "Resident Evil Everything" EGM article cited on the page says: "Veronica is set after Resident Evil 2," Okamoto said, explaining where the game fits in the overall RE saga, "so if we go by the time sequence, Veronica is actually Resident Evil 3." TarkusABtalk 11:04, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

text: OK, in the Director's Hazard interview, they call 3 a "gaiden" multiple times and discuss their reluctance to acknowledge 3 as a true sequel, and also call Veronica a "sequel" a few times. TarkusABtalk 11:23, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
