SSX Blur unveiled for Wii
Due next March.
EA has officially unveiled its SSX game for Nintendo Wii, five months after we first heard about it.
Called SSX Blur, it's exclusive to the new Nintendo console (although that's not to say the series is exclusive), and in development at EA Montreal for release in North American and Europe during March.
Controls will be based on your motions rather than specific button combinations by the sound of it (possibly "and/or").
Producer Alex Hyder said it was the team's goal to, er, "Wii-ify" the "soul of the franchise - the air, the speed, the tricks, the fun".
"You're going to see that reflected in the On-the-Ground and In-the-Air controls, the characters, the user interface, and every other aspect of this game," he added.

I for one cant wait to see what comes up for the Wii there is going to be some amazing stuff in the second wave of games for sure. Once dev crews get their heads round the freedom and possibilities.

I think Red Steel has potential if they continue the series - remember sometimes sequels are better than the original - case in point - compare Street Fighter to Street Fighter 2

Also, love the motion blur. Seems the Wii can do some nice effects if it's asked to.
