Treasure says Sin and Punishment Wii sequel not out of the question

[Superblatt]

You asked for it. You got it.

Errr, MAYBE. Also, I need to read thread titles before I hit submit.

From the new issue of Nintendo Power:

Sin and Punishment Wii sequel not out of the question
October 23rd, 2007

Coming from the latest issue of Nintendo Power…

NP: When we spoke a couple of years ago, you mentioned that you would like to do a sequel to Sin and Punishment. Has the team given any more thought to that? And don’t you think it would be a perfect fit for Wii?

Masato Maegawa, Treasure: When we were originally working on Sin and Punishment [for Virtual Console], there was some discussion utilizing Wii-like controls, and I think now that we’re working more with the Wii, it is something we’d very much like to try.

If you guys are going to make a new S&P game for the Wii, what would you want to see added besides wiimote controls?

I'd like to see characters and ships fighting together cooperatively. Oh, and add online play with leaderboards.

 

[drohne]

good to hear, but i guess this confirms that the wii game they're currently developing isn't s+p 2. i was kind of hoping

 

[Haunted]

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Considering how we've heard more about S&P in the last two months than we have in years, I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[Zeed]

doitdoitdoitdoitdoitdoit DO IT

 

[GhostSeed]

You asked for it. You got it.

Errr, MAYBE.

From the new issue of Nintendo Power:

This news does deserve it's own thread, your fine.

Just for the possibility? Well, alright, but just one.

 

[Jiggy]

Just having the remote would probably automatically put it five steps above the first game--and I loved the first game.

 

[Eteric Rice]

DO IT TREASURE!

DOOO EEEET!

 

[grindamasta]

O_O;

 

[underfooter]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:



w00t!

[Amir0x]

i'd hit it

 

[Hcoregamer00]

Stuff like this makes gamers like me buy Nintendo Wii's

Do it.

 

[Alien Bob]

alright, we already got NiGHTS, now this... Kid Icarus is next...




...and then a 2d console metroid

 

[McBradders]

Would by a Wii just for it.

 

[beelzebozo]

it's pretty cool that a lot of companies seem to be taking a "give the people what they want" attitude lately

 

[grandjedi6]

Now if only Nintendo would join in

 

[rollingstart]

I would buy it, but I would rather them do something new.

also, Treasure needs to be making Hajime no Ippo 2 for the DS with wifi.

 

[Jokeropia]

This has to be done.

 

[Zeed]

Add Co-Op, build it from the ground up with Wiimote accuracy in mind, make it longer than the original and you have a fucking perfect game right there.

quit making me hard, my gf is gonna think im looking at porn.

 

[Superblatt]

Note to self: Hardcore gamers still spends lots and lots and lots of money.
Note to self: It's about time these companies remembered why they're in business in the first place.

Woohoo for fan service!

[castle007]

I am planning on buying the virtual console one, so this is good news

 

[tetrisgrammaton]

i'd go down on it

 

[angelfly]

Come on Treasure make it happen! Online leaderboards like Geometry Wars Galaxies would be a great addition.

 

[Eteric Rice]

Now all we need is for Nintendo to make a GOOD Star Fox game, and we'd be set.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Add Co-Op, build it from the ground up with Wiimote accuracy in mind, make it longer than the original and you have a fucking perfect game right there.

Also, keep the button for the sword swinging. Don't make us swing the wiimote and have to combine swinging + IR pointing. IT DOESN'T WORK.

 

[Zeed]

I don't know, normally I'd agree with you but I haven't had any problems with it in RE4.

 

[Superblatt]

BTW, thanks to the mod for fixing my craptacular title spelling errors. It IS appreciated.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I don't know, normally I'd agree with you but I haven't had any problems with it in RE4.

But RE4 doesn't move you automatically. You have to readjust while the game moves you.

 

[Des0lar]

But there will be actual sword battles. Great sword battles. and there will be shooting. lots of shooting. And then, then you will face god.

 

[Eteric Rice]

I don't know, normally I'd agree with you but I haven't had any problems with it in RE4.

It depends on how they do it, and how quickly they can get the motion to be picked up by the console.

 

[Superblatt]

Wow, seriously? I get to face God? I knew the Japanese were intense people, but God? Wow. I don't know how I feel about shooting at God. Swords would be cool though. I'm down for a one-on-one battle of swords with God.

 

[Des0lar]

Wow, seriously? I get to face God? I knew the Japanese were intense people, but God? Wow. I don't know how I feel about shooting at God. Swords would be cool though. I'm down for a one-on-one battle of swords with God.

Yes

 

[JDSN]

No Wii version?

Edit: Oh, old habits.

 

[Dan]

Get rid of the fucking side-scrolling stages! UGH.

A sequel would be unbelievably welcome though. Bring it on!

 

[Akai]

good to hear, but i guess this confirms that the wii game they're currently developing isn't s+p 2. i was kind of hoping

More like this is the usual "say we're not currently developing something when we really are" deal, am I right?

I hope I'm right... =(

 

[Eteric Rice]

Wow, seriously? I get to face God? I knew the Japanese were intense people, but God? Wow. I don't know how I feel about shooting at God. Swords would be cool though. I'm down for a one-on-one battle of swords with God.

Yeah but God would shoot back.

 

[Jiguryo]

If they release a Sin & Punishment sequel for Wii, they should get canonized. Even if they aren't dead yet.

 

[masud]

Yeah but God would shoot back.

And God only takes head shots.

 

[Zeed]

But RE4 doesn't move you automatically. You have to readjust while the game moves you.

I suppose that The Umbrella Chronicles will be our first real chance to see how well that'd work then.

 

[Christine]

Want.

 

[meppi]

Now this is why I buy VC games even though I already have them on the original systems.
If enough people buy them, it sends a clear message.
Instead of whining why there aren't more classical style games being developed, we can send a them a signal that we still want these kind of games.

The saying "vote with your wallet" has never been more appropriate. First Star Soldier and now this.

 

[Stormbringer]

That's great to read. Really, a Sin and Punishment sequel on Wii makes waaay too much sense for them not to at least consider it. Now get on it !

 

[GremlinInTheMachine]

The Wii needs straight up action games and this would be a great addition. I'll pre-order it if you make it, Treasure.

 

[Mejilan]

You know, the more I think about, the more Treasure's decision to break their no-sequels policy seems a good idea!

 

[citrus lump]

Now if only Nintendo would join in

ya rly.

I don't want shit like Wii sports, Wii Fit, or Wii Music. I want Metroid, Zelda, Mario, Fire Emblem and Mario Kart on the Wii.

Oh wait.
