Major Konami Announcements on Monday!
Check back to this space on Monday for several major announcements on new games from Konami! From new franchises to returning favorites, you won't want to miss the earth-shaking news. You heard it here first!
So, care to speculate on the chances that at least some of this news will be for Wii?

Yeah, Konami seems so attached at the hip to Sony that I'm not expecting much.

But will it really be "earth-shaking"? Not to be cynical, but unless they're pledging exclusivity to one console maker, I don't really see how they could add up to being a big deal.
New Goemon please.

now we just need to find out that Dewy isn't the only game Konami has planned for Wii.

Never happening, they don't even have the license to it anymore nevermind the fact that the last time they did bring the arcade game back they had to replace all the music.

Prepare for disappointment. They'll just reannounce the games they already announced on Thursday.

Hence the reason why I am asking or I would've already gone there (heh, I have DDR Mario but no GCN pad, finding a converter will let me play DDR Mario as well).

That is if DDR Hottest Party uses the GameCube pads. They said that the demo was using them, but in the promo video people were playing on Wireless pads.
We might actually see special made DDR pads for the Wii.

It would also be great if the paid homage to their first Nintendo-released Gradius game "Life-Force" by developing the game's controls to use the Wiimote "NES-style", while adding in further controls through motion gestures to result in different game effects like using super weapons, rewinding, etc.
Can't wait!

I doubt any 10 year old will even play Dewy, stop trolling. Me and my 20 year old friends will though, because it could be fun!
Castlevania isn't happening, some guy who makes it said the Wii was crap or something.

He said that your arm would become tired from whipping, so Castlevania isn't well suited to that control. Obviously he hadn't given much thought to other uses.

That would be great. But lets not give Konami too much credit for graciously allowing us to play 20 year old games, for a fee. Sure, it's nice, but we're still paying for old games and they're making a profit on them-again. Which takes absolutely no effort on their part. No new major game announcements for Wii on Monday, and I'm done with Konami.

Yeah but you'll com back when they release something big anyway.

QuoteI think some announcements are expected to be on Monday. They could have just blown the whole load on friday, but I doubt it. I'm still waiting for a Silent Hill game for Wii at the very least, but a dedicated DDR game is a good start.

Here's hoping for a MGS or the next Castlevania being Wii-bound.

I wish it was a 2D Castlevania for the Wii.

And like SB said, DDR Wii is good enough for now.
