An all new Bonk adventure!

Yay! Hudson is apparently resurrecting the classic platforming series on XBLA, PSN, and WiiWare.

Awesome.

It's sad that with minimal effort, it is probably going to be true to it's roots, and play 'like a bonk game' which will completely destroy any current Sonic title.

Man, now I really wish I could afford a Wii.

"Ah shucks Pa, why don't we ever get DS ports?"
"Because son, Hudson knows what they are doing"

Man that looks UGLY. I'd rather see a 2D Nintendo DS release.

Didn't know what 'Bonk' was, according to wiki there was supposed to be an Amiga release which I didn't know about.
Turned out it was released as BC Kid :) Excellent platformer though!

From that picture above it looks like a Little Big Planet level. If the game plays like Bonk, I will definitely give it a download.

WTF!? How can you NOT know who/what Bonk is!? Ridiculous. Also, the original port of BC-Kid is best (PC-Genjin / Bonk). They ruined the music in the Amiga port :?

All of Hudson's "3D" ports of older games have sucked tremendous amounts of ass. The company deserves to go out of business almost as much as Sega. This looks no different. It won't get much attention from the developers and will feel very sloppy when you play it. They already tried the same damn thing on the PS2 and it was awful. They just cant seem to make polygon characters play like sprite characters. JUST MAKE THE GAME WITH 'SPRITES" AND NOT FRIGGIN' POLYGONS!

I hope Hudson gets herpes, but I will allow them some nice cream to stop the itches if somehow this actually turns out to be good.

How must I know what Bonk is, I never saw a real PC-Engine/Turbographx in my life here in Holland (or anywhere else in the neighbourhood)

Good to know.

This looks like ass. And if it plays like Bonk 2 instead of Bonk 1, I'll pass.

Hey, that rhymes!
