Or so most news sites would have you believe, but let's look at the facts... 

Basically, Jeffrey Simon, SEGA's US President said the following:

"The Wii's selling incredible amounts of hardware, but Nintendo knows it needs to expand the demographic. It needs to connect with the core gaming demographic ... Resident Evil 5 - when that happens on the Wii that's going to help."

A confirmation? I wish, it's far from it in fact... It's a bit more like a prediction.

 Wii is the most popular, or best-selling, console at the moment, and Resident Evil 5 is much hyped game, it only makes sense to bring an incredibly hyped game to a console absolutely loads of people have, right?

And to be fair, that's about it. For all we know, that's either all he's basing his theory on, or he actually knows some industry secret we are all completely unaware of.

I hope that this is true, but I seriously doubt it.

Of course, Jeff did say that it was a slip-of-the-tongue.
