Okay, let's talk zombies and corporate strategy. As a longtime Resident Evil fan who's seen Capcom absolutely crush it since RE7 rebooted the franchise, I've gotta say – the rumor mill about RE Zero and Code Veronica remakes has me buzzing. We've devoured those stellar RE2, RE3, and RE4 remakes, right? And now, with RE9 looming like some mysterious B.O.W. in the fog, Capcom's sitting on two perfect candidates for a genius double feature. These games just belong together, like herbs and gunpowder.

🔍 The Leaky Ship of Rumors

Let’s cut through the fog—Dusk Golem’s track record ain’t shabby. When they whisper about Code Veronica and Zero remakes being "less ambitious" than RE4’s glow-up? I buy it. Capcom’s juggling RE9’s alleged open-world madness, so smaller-scope remakes? Totally logical. But here’s the kicker: dropping them separately feels... meh. Zero’s train-bound chaos and Veronica’s island nightmare? They’re two sides of the same decaying coin.

• Shared DNA: Both star duos (Rebecca/Billy & Claire/Steve)

• Compact runtime: Shorter than RE4’s epic

• Era twins: Early 2000s gems that got overshadowed

🚂 Why Force These Two Into One Package?

Man, think about it. Zero’s Ecliptic Express prequel and Veronica’s direct RE2 follow-up? That’s chronological poetry! Capcom could stitch Umbrella’s whole early saga together with one slick bundle. And c’mon – neither game set sales records originally. Bundling ’em? Instant value boost.

Plus, let’s be real:

"Playing Claire’s Rockfort trauma after Rebecca’s train nightmare? That’s narrative whiplash I’d PAY for."

💰 The Savvy Business Move

Capcom’s no stranger to bundles (looking at you, RE Origins). Releasing these as a duo cuts dev costs, avoids player fatigue, and builds hype for RE9. Imagine: $60 for both, polished with modern controls? Way better than $40 apiece for shorter experiences.

Game	Strengths	Weaknesses
RE Zero	Partner mechanic, creepy setting	Janky item management
Code Veronica	Dramatic cutscenes, Claire’s arc	Steve’s... existence 😅

🔮 My Personal Pipe Dream

Honestly? I want this bundle to drop tomorrow. But beyond convenience, it’s about legacy. These games feel like lost siblings – rough around the edges but oozing charm. A remastered duo could finally give them the spotlight they deserve before RE9 rewrites the rules.

And hey... if Capcom nails this? Maybe we’ll see Outbreak files bundled next. A man can dream.

🌌 The Bigger Picture

Look, RE9’s gonna change everything – open worlds, new mechanics, the works. These smaller remakes? Perfect palate cleansers. A Zero/Veronica bundle isn’t just smart; it’s love letter to fans who remember dodging Hunters in 2002. So Capcom, if you’re listening: do the thing. Give us that sweet, sweet double feature. We’ll be here... nervously reloading.
