Hudson crafting a new Adventure Island


It may be hard to believe, but it's been 13 years since the last Adventure Island game was released. ... OK, so maybe it's not that hard, the "dude riding a skateboard and collecting eggs" genre isn't exactly thriving. Undeterred, Hudson's Takahashi Meijin says that the company is going back to the well for another Adventure Island game, currently in the early stages of development.

Meijin said that the game will probably appear on WiiWare, but noted concern about trying to shoehorn motion control into the game, making him (we believe) the very first Wii developer to ever, ever worry about that. Congratulations, Takahashi!
