Ubisoft 'hope' to see Prince of Persia game on Wii

With the odd exception, the Prince of Persia series has maintained an enviably high standard throughout its nineteen-year run. Sadly, it's not something we've seen enough of on the Wii, apart from a slightly idle Ubiport. We want more of his royal leapiness on Nintendo's machine, and now Ben Mattes, producer of the cel-shaded Prince of Persia on the HD consoles, has sparked hope in our fanboy hearts.Although he admitted that a version of the latest game wasn't heading to Wii, Mattes told Destructoid that he admired how the Wii port of Rival Swords (which he produced) felt with the Wiimote and Nunchuk. "I hope that we will see another Prince of Persia game on the Wii," he said. "Because [...] I really liked the way the Prince's movement translated to the Wii controls. I think that it's really kind of a natural fit."
Another natural fit is Prince of Persia games and our money, so get cracking, Ubisoft.

Comments like this, and the promise of Tom Clancy do make me have hope for Ubisoft's future performance
But obviously we need to see something more material. Real Rayman would be an excellent start.

I hope so too. But I'm not a game developer with the power to make it happen.
One of these things is not like the other!

sounds god and all but i'd like to see that happen. so far ubisoft has produced a TON of Casual games for the Wii (DS as well) and VERY LITTLE "core" games for the Wii. still i'm keeping my finger's crossed.

I'm glad to see someone making a flat out connection between publishing games we want to play, on the format with the highest installed userbase, and money.
