Konami has Pro Evolution Soccer running on Wii

NewsPosted 04/10/2006 - 4:55pm GMT+1

Pro Evolution Soccer producer Shingo 'Seabass' Takatsuka has revealed that a version of Pro Evolution Soccer is already running on the Wii.

Konami announced this week that Pro Evolution Soccer 6 will be arriving in stores on October 27 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 2 and PC, but currently very little has been said in regards to bringing the acclaimed series to the Wii.

Speaking to CVG, Seabass has confirmed that a version of Pro Evolution Soccer is currently in development for the Wii. Although very much in the early stages, the game is already in a playable state and the team is working on ways to utilise the Wii remote and nunchuck.

We'll be sure to keep readers posted on any further developments.

ISS 98 what a Stunning game, I remember me and my brother bought it with the system and loved it :) Then again Sensible Soccer is a Winner.

ISS 98 on the N64 is the greatest football game ever. Theres no other football game that has total control like ISS 98 had. All the other console football games were a step down n control to make things harder.
Mind you though the N64 controller was the best videogame controller (goldeneye) ever so maybe it was just that. Maybe.

Well I had International superstar soccer and International superstar soccer deluxe for my snes..developed by Konami..then when the ps1 and N64 came out it there were 2 different developers..the one for the ps1 became PES as we know it today and then the other developer faded into oblivion as ISS on the N64 just wasn't very good....

Pro Evo Wii

Do Wii really need FIFA '07 on the Wii? What Wii really do need, is Pro Evolution Soccer, and that is what we're getting!

it's unfair that fifa 07 isn't coming out on Wii, fifa 94 which was the first fifa, came out on super nitendo and the other retired consoles. It's actually unfair,but since there'spe6, I'm gonna buy my Wii.
Nitendo is the best.!!!

Its about time the loyal nintendo fans got a decent football game in english.
Gringo u r spot on about we 6 final evolution but i would rather have spent the 20 or so hours playing the game instead of painstakingly translating parts of the game into english.
Wii will rule the world.
