EA on Boom Blox for Other Platforms and Possibility of a Second Sequel
July 22, 2009 | 3:03 PM PST

While Boom Blox seems as though it may be a perfect fit for the Wii, EA Bright Light studio head Harvey Elliott told VideoGamer.com that seeing the title pop up on other platforms is not out of the question.

"I wouldn't rule anything out, never say never," he said of the possibility. "Why I think Boom Blox has really worked is that it captured the spirit of the Wii. It's about the motion control, it's about throwing a ball or throwing an object. I can't imagine that on other devices at the moment. There's something very physical about it. Right now I'm really proud that it's stayed focused on the Wii and I think it's the right thing. Who knows for the future."

With that said, sales have been slow but sure for the Spielberg-helmed franchise. But what about a third Boom Blox?

"I wouldn't say never. I really wouldn't. We've really enjoyed making it. This one does have a lot of new features over the last one. I'd want there to be a step again. I want to make sure that what we do steps it up again."

"The thing I want to do is watch the online community," he continues. "We've actually connected to online - you can create your levels, you download them, you play them and upload your own. I want to see what happens there and then we'll make some decisions."

"Yeah, there are thousands of ideas that didn't make each of the games. I'm not worried about the ideas, I just want to make sure we make something special," he says in conclusion.
