Dead Space confirmed for Wii
EA just confirmed a Wii version of Dead Space in its Q3 investor call.
The firm said it is to focus on stronger marketing for Wii in the coming year, with Dead Space, new tennis titles, three MySims games and Hasbro brands
We’re a little unclear on release date for the new version of 2008′s celebrated horror, but this year is a safe bet. Mr EA’s call’s a little flaky in the quality department.
The news comes on the back of confirmation of a heavy Q3 loss for the developer.

Sounds shitter than Dead Rising Wii.

Given that Dead Space relied heavily on its gorgeous atmospheric graphics and audio to carry the weight of its serviceable but unoriginal exploration and combat, I’m not sure a Wii version is the best idea Mr EA’s had all week. Is it the same developer?

Oh dear god no.
But hey, won’t knock it until I’ve seen screens.
Still, dear god no.

You misunderstand – it’ll be called MyDeadSpace, and will feature little cartoon mutants that you have to despatch with a jam gun.

Who knows… the hardware is reasonable for SD stuff, afterall.
It’s just the devs who don’t bloody bother with Wii stuff because they know bright & cartoony (carnival-y?) sells.
