Visceral interested in bringing Dead Space to other platforms, but doesn't want to do ports

“I’m absolutely interested in bringing Dead Space 2 to other platforms in the future, what’s key to us though is that we don’t do ports. We don’t do shabby conversions onto whatever platform it may be. When we did Dead Space Extraction it was a quality game that uses and plays to the Wii’s strengths, which is the same as the movies and comic books. They’re not just tie-ins, they do a great job at whatever that particular media does. When it comes to the [PSP2] or any other future platforms I’d be into it but I’d want to do something that plays to that platforms strengths rather than just a feeble version of a port.” - Visceral art director Ian Milham

Well, we pretty much know that the Wii is out of the running for another installment, but the 3DS seems like a great platform to support. With the success of Dead Space 2, I’m sure the series has a future on multiple platforms. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for something on 3DS.
