A year ago, Sega revealed Yoot Saito was working on a follow-up to his quirky Dreamcast hit, Seaman, where gamers helped a freakish human fish hybrid via microphone. We haven't heard a blip about the game since, however, but Sega's opened the game's website, promising an announcement by the end of the week.

How come we haven't heard anything, though? Some speculation suggests a platforms shift, with Seaman 2 ending up on the Nintendo DS or Wii (or both?), but we'll have to wait a couple more days to figure out what Sega's been up to for the past 12 months.

Seaman 2 could be awesome assuming they made the AI more complicated and human like, also cut down on the unbelievably long start up the first game carried. Some more variety in the gameplay would also be welcomed, perhaps the Wii and/or DS can give this.

Coming to a PSP near you.

Sega's business tactics are UNSTOPPABLE

I, for one, hope nothing comes of this...  I can already hear the jokes about people having Seaman on their Wii.  Ugh.

I hope so! Seaman for DC was one of my favorite gaming experiences every, I just loved those little um fish, men, things. If it does come out I hope it has tighter voice recognition, that was the only flaw in the original.

Horrible name for a thread topic O,o

But god if this were true, the game would make me cry.  Seaman and his ability to make the mundane funny was amazing for the Dreamcast.

DS makes more sense, IMO...  

[lastexit]

seems like a natural for DS

Yes it really needs to be on the DS.

Then we can touch the seaman!

Well I'd say it's certainly arriving for at least one of them. Announcement this week? Hardly even subtle, is it?

Good news. I'm sure advances in technology will make the sequel all the better. As long as the writing stays sharp.

Hey, that's a good thing. It'd get the game more word of mouth. LOL!

Seaman on the Wii brings us one step closer to online enabled porn games, and I know you all want that.

Wangmote FTW.

In fact I really hope some crazy underground Japanese company does that.  I'd have to get one for the sheer WTF value alone.

As Mario has already demonstrated, the potential for comedy alone is reason enough for this game to exist.

I think a game named Seaman is just so right for Wii. They go together so well, Seaman should be the pack in game for Wii.
