NES classic coming to Wii?

via Computer and Video Games


Rogue Squadron developer Factor 5 is developing a Wii iteration of Kid Icarus, according to one bold report.

Factor 5 president Julian Eggebrecht confirmed last week that the company is developing a brand new Wii title that wouldn't use old GameCube technology.

Kombo doesn't state who the sources might be and reveals no other details on the project, but a few things ring true. Icarus protagonist Pit will appear in the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Brawl for one, and also Shigeru Miyamoto speculated at E3 2005 that the franchise could come to Wii at a later date.

Still, we're not taking this as anything but a rumour for now. We've made a few calls and left a few voice mails.
