First up, we asked Brooke about the possibility of the game being in development on the Wii. His answer seems to confirm it, but like us you'll have to 'put two-and-two together'.
Not satisfied with that response, we asked again about the recent game trailer that was released for the Broken Saints videogame, again Brooke is hinting strongly at (and almost confirming) that the game will be on both the Wii and the DS. See what you make of it...
[quote]JT: I've been asked in particular to quiz you on the recent game trailer that was revealed that showed elements that appeared to suggest multiple formats. So should we suppose you're looking to do a handheld and a home console version? Or...?
BB: You can happily suppose that.
JT: I can happily suppose that? I shall then...So we're probably talking DS and Wii here, but I won't push you on that.
BB: You can happily suppose whatever you like! *laughter* I can't firmly say either way *more laughter*[quote]
So there you have it. Expect a final confirmation on Broken Saints in a few months time, until then, check out our podcast specials featuring the whole interview, part one here and part two here. You can catch the transcript in full on Cubed3 tomorrow. More soon...
JT: Yeah, so, combining two questions into one: you seem to be hinting, quite strongly, that the game will probably appear on the Nintendo Wii. But just how far along is the game development and would you like to confirm it is on the Wii or not?
BB: I can't confirm much. The reason is I'm under a series of NDAs, which will tell you something! *Pause – to let that point settle in* And with that said I will say that I have always been a Nintendo fan...I think most of our hardcore fans know that of me as well. In fact, it was thought way back in the day that we were some sort of secret Nintendo project.
When the site first launched people were like "This is way too slick to have been done by three guys". And we kind of hinted our Nintendo leanings in places and people were like "Oh this must be a secret Nintendo game receptacle". I love Nintendo, I love the platforms, even the moments of weakness, the chinks in their armour so to speak, but I think the new platform is incredible. I think that development costs can be cut down. I think that the Virtual Console will provide for an incredible showcase of episodic content and I think that the connection between the Wii and the DS, as far as transferring trailers or additional content...hmm, interactive comic books are really interesting...I think that all the clues are kind of there for you.

I'm watching out for this
