Kojima talks Wii

Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid) took the time to talk with CVG for an interview in which he discussed how he feels about the Wii.

CVG: What are your impressions of Nintendo Wii and how did Snake appear in Smash Brothers?

Kojima: I’ve played Tennis, Zelda and Mario on Wii. I find Tennis very interesting. I played the early version but the E3 version is far more advanced. As a game designer, I’m very interested in creating something for the Wii. I’d like to run away from MGS 4 creation and create something for the Wii but unfortunately, I don’t have anything that I can announce at the moment. I have lots of ideas for Wii but I have a heavy schedule with MGS 4 and Metal Gear Online. Concerning Snake’s appearance on Wii in Smash Brothers, I’m friends with the designer of the game and I thought it would be nice if you could play as Snake - when I heard about the new game last year, I contacted the designer and we started working together.

It is almost a sure thing that Mr. Kojima has something in the works for the Wii, but he isn’t letting the info out just yet. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that he will announce something in the near future.
