Wii - Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure - Capcom: Spyborgs to be Next Zack & Wiki  Kombo writes:

Gotta give the man credit; Capcom's Christian Svensson may have participated in the fastest game-related turnaround time ever. His company's latest Wii title, Spyborgs, was announced early this morning, Wii fans started pissing and moaning about it an hour or so later, and Svensson was on the scene to placate them a few hours after that. Here's a snippet of what he said:

"The initial reaction here I swear is the EXACT reaction so many of you posters had when we first revealed Zack & Wiki. Somehow, Z&W is now a poster-child title for the Wii in your eyes. Mark my words... you will feel exactly the same way about the level of quality in Spyborgs when it is done."

Wii - Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure - Zack & Wiki 2 possible says the producer Capcom Producer on Zack & Wiki, Hironobu Takeshita, was interviewed last year about the game. During this interview he was asked if he sees Zack & Wiki become one of Capcom's banner franchises with sequels or if it's a one-time game only. VGB quotes his reply: "I have a lot of confidence in Zack & Wiki, and especially the foreign media [outside of Japan] seem to have a lot of hope and respect for the title. So of course it depends on how it sells, and the sales of the title, but that is something I would like to do, to turn it into a series."

A Capcom spokesperson said: "We have already contacted ...
