God of War II Designer Wants to Develop for Wii

TwilightPrince | January 14, 2008 | News | Wii Company 
Cory Barlog, designer of the critically acclaimed God of War II, wants to make a game for Wii. In a recent question & answer session, he reveals that the cheaper cost of developing for Wii is a big plus in his eyes. He also notes that there is alot he could do with a Wii game.
D: any intrest of making a game on the wii? hahaha
YES! Even though I was less than impressed with my Wii, as well as a lot fo the games I have played, I would love to make a game on this system. I think there is a lot to be done with it. Plus...it’s like a BILLION times cheaper to make a Wii game versus a 360 or PS3 game...which is good. Making a 40 or 50 million dollar game is cool, I love making big games don’t get me wrong, but you have soooo many more masters with their hands in the creative pot when that kind of money is getting thrown around. Hopefully when the game industry becomes more comfortable with those budget numbers things will get better. I mean, we were just getting used to 20-30 million when the next gen came around and now big games are costing double. I heard MGS4 costs 70 million. Which actually sounds ludicrous to me, but in a way it doesn’t if you factor int he MGS4 and MGS online...and the tons of cinematics and long development time...it could get up to that.
