Will Wright Confirms Rumored Nintendo Wii Platform For Spore

Will Wright, well-known Sim creator, and the wizard behind the curtain behind the much-awaited game release, Spore, confirms Nintendo Wii platform rumors in a recent interview with Guardian Unlimited, “We’re doing Spore on the Wii, and we did MySims. It takes significant re-thinking to work out how you’re going to do it. PS3 and Xbox 360 are similar enough that you can basically use the same system for both. So it comes down to what the interesting major platforms are and which markets we want to hit.” Regardless of which console or how many consoles Spore will be available on come delivery day, we’re all anxiously anticipating the release. Will Wright, a featured keynote at South By Southwest Interactive + ScreenBurn in March 2007, gave an exciting Spore demo that left the audience eager for more.
