Spore spreads the love

We already suspected that Spore was heading to DS and PSP, but now Will Wright, creator of The Sims, has announced during an online interview that his colossal-scale evolution game will be launched "on all platforms."

Will Wright also spoke out about the next-gen war, saying, "I'm rooting for Nintendo." This surely means that Wright is keen to see his creature-creation masterpiece reach Nintendo's Wii, after already confirming in another interview that Spore would "definitely" be playable on DS.

Spore's impressive - and super-expansive - gameplay continues to amaze and intrigue us, but we'll be interested to see how the developer manages to transport such an ambitious project across to other, less powerful machines. We'll be keeping 'em peeled for more updates.
