If there would be a new Zack and Wiki game would it still be based on lose puzzles or 1 big world with loads of puzzles and adventures in it? i would love to see Zack and Wiki in a "free" world. or would  this threaten the world of Zack and Wiki? I would love to hear your vision about the future of this great game.

Zack and Wiki Action RPG? :p

I'd love to see that, or a Action RPG on that engine. But... I don't know if using Zack and Wiki franchise would be the best path to take.

Let me preface this answer with a statement to set expectations that we've not announced another Z&W and I'm not so sure there will be one on any reasonable timeline.

As for what I'd love to see as a gamer, not as a Capcom employee? I like your idea of an open world that opens up larger and larger as more puzzles get solved (so part of your motivation as a player to is to see more of the world).

This makes me really sad, Zack & Wiki was a great game. After completing Z&W and DMC4 i can honestly say that Z&W was (for me at least) the superior game. It just felt so complete and well designed. It's a travesty that more Wii owners didn't pick up this gem.

It was so refreshing to see a major developer take a risk with something different. Did capcom make a profit with this game? if not i guess we could kiss good buy to the idea of a sequel :(

If however there was a sequel i would just love for the original team to be able to work on it, i also quite like your open world idea. One other thing, rather than Z&W2 i think it should just be called Z&W then a different subtitle, like the Indiana Jones movies!

I hope the team are at least working on another Wii game, it seems to me that they are some of the few people who really 'get' Wii controls. If i manage to rustle up $30 mill would you let them make a game, and give them full creative freedom? I will let you keep any profits.

So like Z&W meets Metroid? I'd kinda prefer standalone downloadable slices of traditional Z&W action.

Well, that's a no-brainer.

I really like Z & W, but its pretty obvious there won't be a sequal. (Shakes fist at certain people) I'm stuck at the last part of the game, but in a few days I'll have some spare time so I will beat the game.

But, I don't know what the Z&W team is up to now, but I'm eagerly waiting for their new project. Extremely talented team.

Well i think Z&W are great mascotes (like megaman and street fighter) and they need more games! the game is way to good to be left alone. dont you think?
