"At the moment we've got Fallout 3 for this year and potentially there's a new Elder Scrolls title in 2010," Paul Oughton, a bigwig over at Bethesda, told GamesIndustry.biz.
However, it seems that the Wii will be left out, with the Oughton stating that the company is opting to pass over Nintendo's massively popular console.
"At the moment we're not that interested in the Wii. We're going to stick to PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. We'll continue to pursue three or four titles a year and go for big titles," noted Oughton.
Despite this, Oughton still had the usual praise for Nintendo, saying how they have expanded the market etc - but that saturation point is imminent.
"We've seen games selling in the past 18 months that we never thought we'd see. We wouldn't have thought that pet games and cooking games would have a viable market five years ago. No publisher would have taken those products on. But Nintendo bought new products in with vast amounts of marketing money to launch these into the minds of the consumer and made a market for them. Every other publisher then very quickly developed DS and Wii products and we're getting to saturation now."
While we're waiting for the next Elder Scrolls, there's the imminent release of Fallout 3 to tide us over.
