Guitar Hero possibilities on Wii, DS

Below are a few excerpts from a Stephen Totilo interview with Dusty Welch from Red Octane concerning the possibilities of Guitar Hero on the Wii, or DS.

“The obvious answer would be yes we’re interested, and how could you say no to Reggie? With the transition onto the next-gen platform, it only makes sense for us to explore all the great opportunities available.”

“Guitar Hero has always been about being the lead guitarist of a rock band. We don’t see that changing anytime in the near future with a controller outside of a guitar-based shape, though what works best on one console might not work on the other, so it’s an item we would really have to research and test in depth before moving forward with anything.”

“(concerning the DS and PSP) We don’t want to speculate at this point, though we can definitely say we are exploring every option there is, as we have an incredible fanbase which still has tons of room for expansion. The mobile and handheld market is continuing to boom, and the opportunity for growth remains incredibly strong, though whether or not this market is a truly viable option for ‘Guitar Hero’ remains to be seen.” - Red Octane’s Dusty Welch

Looks like something might be in the works. At least the developers are into the idea of the Wii and DS. Thanks to Eddie for the heads up!
