EA diskutiert über Boom Blox

Electronic Arts hat zusammen mit Steven Spielberg schon zwei Spiele (Boom Blox und Boom Blox Smash Party) auf die Wii gebracht, welche sich letztendlich als Überraschungs-Hit herausstellten. Dank der Wii-Remote dürft ihr Türme zum Einsturz bringen und massig Punkte absahnen.

Jetzt erwähnte Harvey Elliott von Electronic Arts, das man bisher keinerlei Gründe finden kann, das Spiel auf andere Konsolen zu portieren. Denn das Spiel lebt von solchen Features wie zum Beispiel die Steuerung auf der Heimkonsole von Nintendo.

Zitat

“I wouldn’t rule anything out, never say never [Boom Blox on other platforms]. Why I think Boom Blox has really worked is that it captured the spirit of the Wii. It’s about the motion control, it’s about throwing a ball or throwing an object. I can’t imagine that on other devices at the moment. There’s something very physical about it. Right now I’m really proud that it’s stayed focused on the Wii and I think it’s the right thing. Who knows for the future.

I wouldn’t say never. I really wouldn’t. We’ve really enjoyed making it. This one does have a lot of new features over the last one. I’d want there to be a step again. I want to make sure that what we do steps it up again. The thing I want to do is watch the online community. We’ve actually connected to online - you can create your levels, you download them, you play them and upload your own. I want to see what happens there and then we’ll make some decisions. Yeah, there are thousands of ideas that didn’t make each of the games. I’m not worried about the ideas, I just want to make sure we make something special.” - Harvey Elliott, head of EA Bright Light studio
