Looks like Nintendo wants a piece of MGS4 as well.

I'll keep hope out for the Wii killer7, but I don't think this rumor has a hope in hell. They'd pretty much have to develop a whole new game. They might be able to do something with the TTS engine, but isn't that Silicon Knights' rather than Kojipro's?
Anyway, I don't think there's much point picking apart how unlikely this is, as it's quite plain to see that it's not going to happen.

WTF kind of drugs are they taking over there to say it's been "announced" for not only 360 but Wii? Is there a European June Fool's Day or something? That would be the equivalent of porting Metal Gear Solid 1 as-is to 32X or something.

No way. A 360 version of MGS4 is plausible - even probable, as contrary to what some people seem to believe, MGS doesn't move consoles - but the Wii is just a beefed up Gamecube. It would not be able to produce graphics in level with what Kojima Productions is aiming for.

A lot of people must really want to play MGS4. Just buy a PS3 for it. They love to complain it has no games and nothing on the horizon, yet they're ga-ga over this one.
The only people sadder than these "journalists" are the people who post comments to these stories along the lines of "OMG if this is true..." Obviously it isn't. Kojima always announces his games through Konami. Just wait for that to know for sure.

Bring us a nice saga for Wii with the most pertinent parts from each of the MGS games intricately woven into one game.
Either that, or bring us a cyborg Raiden gekkou slasher game for Wii.

Well said. It's kind of like a GameCube version of Grand Theft Auto III - It would never have worked (Well, except graphically.).

I very much doubt that if there was an MGS game for Wii that it'd use the MGS4 engine. In fact, it'd be nice if Konami made a Wii engine for an MGS game (hopefully like Umbrella Chronicles) and then used it for new titles.

I sure hope Kojima makes a Wii game. I'm sure he could come up with something cool.
As for MGS4 on the Wii, i seriously doubt it. As the game looks today, it probably wouldn't work. But Kojima should definatly make a Wii game. As long as it's nothing a bit TOO advanced, like that rumor i heard of him wanting to make a game where if you die in the game, the game would stop working, and you would have to buy a new copy. That would have been hell! :razz:

He said he would after MGS4's done. If a game comes out of Project 'S' (almost definite), I'd be surprised if it wasn't on the Wii.

I think there's a chance that a Project 'S' game could come out on the DS, instead of your speculation that a Wii release being inevitable.

Well, Project 'S' was first announced as an adventure game for the Wii, but there were concerns about how commercially viable it would be. I don't see why they'd leave the console if they decided to make a game.

Was it ever actually announced as a game to begin with? I thought that was just an assumption that spread.

I'm pretty sure they mentioned it on the KP Report. I know that it was definitely going to be an adventure game, from the EDGE interview.

No, I mean when Project S was first announced by Kojima. That was when talk of a "Wii adventure game" started, even though neither Kojima or Suda said anything. I think one person just made an assumption, which everyone else picked up without questioning, just like the "Policenauts was 75% translated before it was 'canned'" claim.
I know that now it's clear it was meant to be an adventure game (so the assumption turned out to be correct), but what I'm saying is I don't recall it being stated as so last year by Kojima.

You've got me curious, as I'm sure I heard word from Kojipro or Suda about it coming to the Wii, but if I'm honest, I'm not curious enough to go digging around old topics, podcasts and interviews.

Hell, the 32X could barely do Virtua Fighter as it is, MGS1 is even less likely. and LMAO @

Is he for real? Of course nevermind it's just a silly rumor at this point, I'm not holding much stock in it either.

MGS4 on the Wii was pretty much shot down on the latest KP podcast (if anyone ever believed any part of the rumor).

I definetly didn't... but something Metal Gear on the Wii would definetly kick ass, if Kojima does it right.

Kojima is actually working on a new PS3 game after MGS4 is done. I keep hoping it will be Project S(even though its supposedly for Wii), but I think it will be that MMO zombie game he was talking about doing a while back.
