Imagine Elderscrolls or fallout.
Even if it's not, they are still brilliant studios. Can't wait to see what they have in store for the Wii, hopefully it will be announced at E3

Something ground up would be interesting, there still needs to be a major shift from alot of other developers to push the \'hardcore\' part of the Wii\'s market to sell well, I think it can happen, if RE4/UC, Twilight Princess, and MP3 can sell well as \'hardcore\' games that don\'t appeal to the whole market, I don\'t see why others don\'t.

I wonder if they\'ll consider Elder Scrolls V on the Wii (unless they think the world would be too big) or just a completely seperate version of both Elder Scrolls and Fallout. I don\'t see how they did a PSP version but say that the Wii\'s not powerful enought for Oblivion.

Elder Scrolls V should be left with the PC/360. I'd like to see a not numbered ES game for the Wii. It might not be able to be as big a game as Oblivion, but it still could be great with WiiMotion Plus.

I think last time they said they didn't want to make Wii games? I guess 50.000.000 changed their mind.

I see a crying developer here: He tries to do a hardcorre tite on Wii with mediocre gameplay and lousy graphics, hich was cheap to make and thinks hardcore fans, who are into graphics and game mechanics, will buy it like crazy.
All the hardcore consumers are gone to the other two consoles, so you have to either have a long breath and build IPs for Wii or make a great game with gret graphics and/or funny or great protagonists. SEGA did it with HotD: Overkill, so Bethesda have to be better then they were.
They will fail, because they don't want to throw in a lot of money and great designers.

Partyl because Elder Scrolls 3 and 4 were mediocre hack'n'slay games which were boring after 2/3 of playing. Fallout seems to better I've been told. But not different. Same principle but with great ideas and fresh setting, absurd and great style. The rest is mediocre, too.

I dont want an 18 rated game, thats just stupid and limiting.

I want a -decent budget- game, which can appeal to ALL the Wii gamers that want quality games, regardless of gore.

That's exactly what I think is gunna happen, I just hope I'm wrong though I want a eccentric open world title from these Devs, I hope they don't settle on doing the minimum

I've played TES3: Morrowind for 100, maybe 150 hours. Awesome game, so much to do.
I would love to see something like that on the Wii. There are not enough quality adventure games, a bit like Zelda.

As much as this cynically amuses me, I will openly admit that I'm very excited about this seeing as, when all is said and done, Bethesda are excellent developers. I really am glad to see that more and more serious developers are finally trying to harness the Wii the way it was meant to be used.

However, I can easily see girl gamers taking serious offense at that "games for girls" thing. Better be careful, there, because I've seen plenty of girls who play Fallout and Elder Scrolls.

Wait, when did they do Elder Scrolls on PSP?? I need that!

Also, if any other American readers have seen the issue of Game Informer from a couple months back where they joke about "Fallout 3: Vault Party" for Wii... I wonder if Bethesda saw that?

ermmm.. I just looked it up and apparently it wasn't confirmed to be cancelled, but it hasn't seen the light of day .

How, there are actually games out there aimed for just young girls. Haven't you heard of Bratz and Petz series? Those are definitely not aimed at young males. Even seeing the US Cooking Mama trailer with only little girls in it makes it seem like that was just for girls. I think what they mean by

so we will not be seeing the developer "establish a new range [called] 'My Girly Game Range' or whatever these other companies are doing, it's so me-too and boring.

I personally hope it will be a game that brings the best of TES4 and Fallout 3 together in a cohesive package that takes into consideration the limitations of the Wii. In my opinion, TES4 is vastly superior than TES3- from menu navigation to the mechanics behind leveling. Fallout 3 is just an amazing game that really draws you in, and that is something I want from a Wii game.

Here\'s hoping Bethesda take a page from Rockstars book and create a seamless streaming engine that is better than the one in GTA: SA that was on PS2.

We\'re not going to produce games for girls

Hmmm.. Personally, I expect it to be a Fallout-like spin-off. All Bethesda's franchises but The Elder Scrolls and their recent Fallout 3 are relatively crap, so I think they'd rather stick with their main franchises. Also, The Elder Scrolls isn't 18-rated, so I'd say a Fallout Wii. Could be awesome.

If it's gonna be a new franchise, please let it be cel shaded! Bethesda is good at setting up enormous areas, so something The Wind Waker-like would be astonishing.
