Hudson admits Bomberman: Act Zero was bad

We'd be excited for Bomberman Land on the Wii if recent events hadn't reminded us how unfriendly the Wii is to online. Although Bomberman Land for the Wii and DS are expected later this year, Bomberman Live looks to be the way to go for the Bomberman faithful. And at an expected 800 MS point price ($10), that kinda beats anything that the Wii and DS versions will have at $29.99+ with limited online functionality. Keep it simple, keep it fun, keep it multiplayer friendly -- that should be the Bomberman mantra.

you guys are really shooting yourselves in the foot by taking swipes at nintendo for there being no online in MP3...

I now love Hudson because of this video.
Denis @ Jul 5th 2007 8:22PM
Nice! Funny stuff. Kudos fto Hudson for taking this approach. I for one appreciate the self-referential humour. It's works far better than insulting compeditors. Very good job guys!

hmm, maby Bethesda should do that with there recent games, doubtful to happen with that idiot Tod Howard in charge, but hey I can dream.

This actually makes me less excited for this game. I wish they'd spend more time talking about what they did, and not make endless sarcastic "let's make it suck, hehehe" jokes.

I agree with #1

I thought Konami had something to do with Bomberman: Act Zero, which is what lent towards its suckishness
Every console owner should have at least one copy of Bomberman, and i got mine for Wii (93)
Now i just need to convince my 360 friends to get Bomberman Live...
Covarr @ Jul 5th 2007 9:33PM
I think they knew that it was lousy all along. That's why they had Konami publish it instead of publishing it themselves.
Daniel @ Jul 5th 2007 9:48PM
This makes me want to work at Hudson.
Sippin' on Stella Artois and making corny videos...
It's my dream.

@Mr Khan and Covarr:
Konami has been Hudson's majority shareholder (53.99%) since April 2005. Hence why some of Hudson's games have been published by them.
And this video is awesome. I'm downloading it to my DS.

One of the guys reminds me of a guy from this other video...but I can't remember what D:
That vid was awsome. But, its not a going to be a new game but a bunch together? Thats basically what they said.

Car2oon @ Jul 6th 2007 12:47AM
LOL, that was pretty goofy. Good going Hudson. (Now, how about you port Bomberman Live to PSN? Please?)
BPM @ Jul 6th 2007 2:01AM
Car2oon, it's called "Bomberman Live," Because it's on Xbox Live. :P
If it was on PSN... It'd be called... Bomberman... uh... PSN?

Bomberman is so damn good. One time I beat the single-player "campaigns" of Bomberman 1, 2, and 3 on the NES in one sitting. I have no idea why I did it. It was the boringest bore ever. But I had to do it. 'Cuz (multiplayer) Bomberman is the best thing in life, and playing the crappy single player mode was the sacrifice I made to it. I just had to get that off my chest.
