From Surfer Girl, a video game rumor blogger that seems to have a decent track record:
2) The Mother/Earthbound series is coming to Wii and/or DS stateside, very possibly next year.
3) Team Ico is working on two titles (maybe three), one major and the other(s) smaller. The smaller one(s) is/are more like Echochrome and does/do not take place inside the Ico canon.
Both of these rumors are really exciting, and I hope they’re true. Team Ico brought us Ico (obviously) and Shadow of the Colossus. As for Mother/Earthbound, I’m curious if this is a new title, Virtual Console stuff, or a DS port of Mother 3. I wonder where this will leave the current fan translation project…
Game|Life reported some terrible news for Mega Man and Smash Bros fans. In the Bionic Commando podcast, Mega Man creator Keiji Inafune said:
Nintendo hasn’t asked me yet if they can use MegaMan in their game. I’m still waiting…we have a little bit of time left, it’s not coming out for another few months. They might get around to asking us if we’d like to put MegaMan in Super Smash Brothers. Maybe if somebody from Nintendo is listening to this podcast, they’ll give me a call.
If this is just misdirection, that’d be awesome. However, this is most likely true. Sucks, eh?
