I’ve been going back and forth over whether or not to post this, but it does seem that this is at least slightly related to Nintendo. Here’s what Bungie President Harold Ryan said about the possibility of developing for Wii…

“The Wii, along with any other platform that people enjoy entertainment on, is certainly a potential platform for our universe and IP. It’s obviously a platform we’ve developed or shipped games for, but it certainly has a broad consumer base in parts of the world, and something we absolutely consider as a potential platform.”

And the announcement is below…

10-Year Alliance Expands Global Reach for Leading Game Developer Across Multiple Platforms

London, UK – April 29, 2010 – Bungie, the developer of blockbuster game franchises including Halo, Myth and Marathon, and Activision, a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, the #1 online games publisher (Nasdaq: ATVI), announced today that they have entered into an exclusive 10-year partnership to bring Bungie’s next big action game universe to market. Under the terms of the agreement, Activision will have exclusive, worldwide rights to publish and distribute all future Bungie games based on the new intellectual property on multiple platforms and device. Bungie remains an independent company and will continue to own their intellectual property. Additional terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

The groundbreaking alliance will provide Bungie its first such partnership since splitting off from Microsoft in 2007, significantly broadening its global reach by providing the resources and support to develop, distribute and release games worldwide on multiple platforms and devices.

Sword Fighting Game Utilizes The Wii Remote With Wii MotionPlus To Deliver The Ultimate Weapon

EDISON, N.J., April 29, 2010 – En garde! Prepare to battle in the ultimate sword fight as Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of video games for the mass market, announces Swords for Wiiä. Swords pits players against some of the most formidable adversaries in history using the Wii Remote with Wii MotionPlus as their blade for accurate 1-to-1 motion-based battles.

In Swords, players travel through time and space to challenge eight skilled adversaries– including the flirtatious yet dangerous beauty Keiko Anamura, the vicious Viking chieftain Armin, the famed Sir Lancelot of the Round Table and many more. Each victory grants players an upgraded, unique sword, providing them the type of blade they need to successfully defeat the next in line of opponents. Once they’ve cut their way through the list of history’s top masters, they must defeat the mysterious final combatant in order to earn the title of Greatest Swordsman of All Time.
