A video trailer (embedded below the jump) shows what looks like a transparent, touch-screen d-pad placed over the on-screen action to control Bomberman, sort of like the interface for the earlier iPhone PlayStation emulator . According to Hudson, the game will include "classic Bomberman powerups and original special items" and take advantage of "the unique iPhone / iPod touch interface of flicking, tapping, and tilting with a built-in accelerometer." No word on a multiplayer mode, but with the iPhone's Wi-Fi capabilities, a local wireless option would hopefully be a no-brainer.
Bomberman touch joins water-based puzzle game Aqua Forest and the always lucrative Sudoku in Hudson's announced line-up for the iPhone.

I popped for Bomberman Live and it is frustrating steaming turd. Both the Kick and Remote Det bombs were some reason given a pause before they work throwing the timing completely out of wack.
I am a serious freak for bomberman multi since the SNES and without a doubt, the XBL version is the worst implementation hands down (The 1st xbox360 version doesn't even count).
I agree w/ Pojo.

This looks good, the resolution looks insane. However, no phone has a good game-controller interface without looking like a retarded Gameboy, so a big 'wait and see' is hovering over my head.
