Pandemic working on Wii title for kids
You’d be pretty hard-pressed to find someone who’ll find Mercenaries 2: World in Flames as “child-friendly” — unless their thought processes and moral whatchamacallits are all bent and skewed, that is. It looks like the people behind Mercenaries 2, however, want to do something a bit more little-folk-centric. We mean kids, OK? Not midgets.
According to a recent article in BusinessWeek, Pandemic Studios is “quietly developing a concept title for the Wii that could attract younger players.” According to Andrew Goldman, Pandemic’s Chief Executive, “the Wii does something new, and draws people back in.” Just like it did with pandemic, we guess.
The BusinessWeek article held no details regarding what title Pandemic is currently developing for the Wii. There’s a total of five unnamed projects listed in the Pandemic website, but no details on what console they’re for. Perhaps it’s a next-gen entry in the Army Men franchise.
Pandemic has also announced that it’s working on a new Destroy All Humans title for next gen videogame consoles, so it could be that one. God knows there is no way it could be some kind of Baby Mercenaries title or something. Well, at least we hope so. Keep checking back here on QJ for more updates.
