New Prince of Persia - DS talk, Wii being looked at 'very seriously'

The following is a snippet from the latest issue of Edge UK, transcribed by reader theReal_weeman…

The game ships on PS3, 360 and PC later this year, but a complementary DS title is also in the works. “It’s connected to the game in a very interesting way, but it’s not a port. A complementary experience, shall we say?” explains Mattes. And the prospect of a Wii Version? “We ported Two Thrones to the Wii. It was a quick and dirty port, i can say. With that we saw a lot of potential. The controls were not fully optimised, did not take full advantage of the Wii, but a lot of people saw the POP universe could certainly have a home on Wii. Since then people have been looking into that, but there’s no formal announcement. We are investigating it very seriously. You would never see a port of the game we’re making however. That’ll never, never happen.”

So, Ubisoft admits that the Wii version was just a quick way to get some cash. They also claim that they are ‘very seriously’ looking into bringing the prince back to the Wii, but we won’t get a port of the new game. I wonder what all this means…
