The Wii is a popular console, but not with that audience.

It would be like advertising an anime during the Super Bowl instead of Adult Swim.
It still surprises me that people get surprised when games geared towards hardcore gamers don't get released on the Wii. Granted, Nintendo is starting to get our attention with this year's E3, but until recently, we were not the console's target audience. It may take just a little bit of time for that to completely change

I'm a sad monkey too. The XBLA exclusive release of Snoopy Flying Ace made me cry :P
Thanks everyone...

I would still like a port of this, and any other four player beatemups to the Wii or PC. I know it wont happen but I would like it. It is understandable why they dont port it to the wii, it would have to be a retail release thanks to Nintendos cap on Wiiware size, but there is little excuse for it not being a PC game.

Uh, there's a lot of sprite work going on here. I'm not sure the Wii could handle it. Remember, the system is basically a Gamecube with motion controls. Actually I don't think any recent gen system could handle this game... At least from what I've seen in the videos.

This doesn't seem that far beyond the Wii's capabilities to me
