Space Channel 5 rumor smashed - Image 1It's time for another rumor to get smashed, at least for the time being. After hearing of the N-Zone report that mentioned the possible return of Space Channel 5, ostensibly for the Wii, it seemed as if our dreams would come true.

The problem, however, is that it doesn't seem to be true. IGN's coverage of the rumor mentions that "A Sega spokesperson denied the validity of the story, so for the time being it is merely the whisper of a rumour."

This doesn't leave us with a lot to go on, at least in terms of the possibility of a new Space Channel 5 game or a port of the previous version. Still, Tetsuya Mizuguchi thinks Space Channel 5 on the Wii might be a good fit, so there's still hope for a new game to pop up in the future. We'll just have to be patient and hope that the perky space reporter comes back with a vengeance.

since the Wii is getting most of the other Saturn and Sreamcast ports.
