Hudson USA recently discussed a few details on the upcoming Wii releases of Bomberman and possibilities for Ys Book I&II.
- Be sure to read the complete interview over at Siliconera.
Will we see Ys Book I&II will we see this on US Wiis? Can you give us an estimate on the time?
You know, Ys is one of our most-requested titles, along with Bonk and Military Madness (which have come out on the Virtual Console, and people are still asking for them on other platforms). We'd love to make our fans happy, so we're still evaluating if it's right to bring Ys over.
It's great that Hudson had a chance to bring Battle Lode Runner and DoReMi Fantasy: Milon's DokiDoki Adventure outside of Japan. What other Virtual Console imports can we look forward to in the future?
Good question. There's a lot of other great games that didn't make it over to the States. Let me answer your question with another question: What games would you like to see? Drop by our forums and let us know. If we see that there's a certain game a lot of American gamers would like brought over, we'll look into it.
Hudson announced Star Solider R for North America, but there wasn't a price. How much will it cost?
We'll release that information soon.
Recently, Hudson Japan announced two Bomberman games for the Wii. Is Hudson planning on releasing either Bomberman game in North America?
Bomberman has worldwide appeal and is clearly beloved by US gamers, as the success of Bomberman LIVE showed us. Any game we release in Japan is always evaluated for a US release, so I'm sure you'll see more Bomberman in the US in the future.
Is Hudson planning to release more casual titles like Table Games for the Wii or the series of Nintendo DS puzzle games (Jigsaw Puzzle/ Illustlogic) outside of Japan?
With the increasing interest in casual games here in the US, we're certainly thinking about releasing more casual-oriented games. We will pay special attention if those games will have global appeal or if we should release them to specific territories only.

Evan, Jr.The Y's franchise intrigues me. My only personal gameplay exposure is Ark of Napishtim (PS2), which I know is not indicative of the gameplay of Books I & II. I've watched a lot of gameplay for the earlier games on Youtube and such and they look like fantastic games. I would definitely download this if it comes to the US VC.

According to Wikipedia and some reviews at GameFAQs it is either "Yeez" or "Eees" (like ease). Not sure which it is.
