Nintendo Power revealed some new information about the upcoming ports of RE 0 and 1 (GC version), which are being labelled as "Resident Evil Classics" (meaning that Wii versions of RE2 and 3 may also be in the system's future).
Both games will be exactly the same as the GameCube versions except that they are lower priced and can be controlled with the Wiimote+Nunchuk. However there are no motion controls. So... if you already own the Gamecube versions, don't bother. Just play them on the Wii with GameCube controllers.

The Darkside Chronicles, the second rail-shooting RE game for the Wii. Umbrella Chronicles focused on RE0, 1, and 3. The Darkside Chronicles will focus MOSTLY on RE2 only. Leon and Claire will both be playable, there's going to be unlockable characters, and there's both CPU and P2 co-op modes. Gameplay will be similar to Umbrella Chronicles, except with a new "dodge" system added in for more intense battles.
The game will also explore Leon's past, allowing you to play missions from before the events of RE2 when he was working in South America.

Darkside Chronicles should be cool. I'd be psyched if they'd release Code Veronica as a Resident Evil Classic, since that's the only GCN one I'm missing. I don't see that happening though. RE2, RE3, and RE:CV were dated ports when they were on the GCN, so to re-port them again with no changes seems improbable.
