…For now, at least. Konami’s Masashi Tsuboyama mentioned the Wii in an interview with Dengeki PlayStation recently, stating that the Silent Hill series probably wouldn’t fit in on the Wii.

“While Nintendo Wii sales are very high, and I applaude Nintendo for their sucess, I dont think Silent Hill is a game that would be sold on Nintendo Wii as much as a game like Zelda would worldwide. This by no means says we will not consider the idea but the general opinion is that Wii is for family games and im sure the fans don’t play Silent Hill with their grandma!

“…Nintendo Wii would be easier to make for but the control scheme would be hard to implement in a Silent Hill game.”

I’m sure once other, similar games from other publishers do well on the Wii, Konami will learn to adapt their own games. It’s only a matter of time.
