EA: No DLC for Dead Space Wii on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Producer for the Wii version of Dead Space, Steve Papoutsis, has confirmed that there currently aren't plans for DLC.

Despite Nintendo including support for high-capacity storage via SDHC memory cards, EA don't have plans to take advantage with additional, downloadable content.

I don't think we have any plans for that right now. It's interesting but no.

Speaking to VG247, Papoutsis also reiterated that the game won't be a "watered down" experience, staying true to the original.

In terms of art direction/graphic style, music/ambiance etc.

OK I see now thanks, but I wonder what made them want to exclude gameplay and horror feel? IMO there isn't much or any horror elements in guided play.

DLC is usually abused by releasing a game that\'s not finished yet. You\'re paying more for the same.
So I don\'t see this as bad news.

J Tangle that is exactly what I thought with regards to the Horror element. The scares come from your decision to go down those dark corridors and not knowing if your walking into danger. You just loose that element completely.

DLC like anything has good and bad elements. How team fortress approached it is a shining example of the good that can come from it.
