The Saturn version of Bomberman might be on its way to Xbox Live Arcade, judging by comments made by Hudson's online marketing manager to US website 1UP.
During a recent conversation with the unnamed bloke-in-question, 1UP claims he said that the possibility of Bomberman joining the Arcade line-up is "under evaluation" and the Saturn version would be a great addition.
Bomberman DS doesn't support Wi-fi, only DS-to-DS (ad hoc) play. You can have 8 people play on 1 card though. The singleplayer component was rather lacking though, so it's not really worth getting unless you have other people around to play against.
Saturn Bomberman online would be sweet. I enjoyed Bomberman Online quite a bit while it lasted.
We here shall not rest until we have made a drawing-room of your shaft, and if you do not all finally go down to your doom in patent-leather shoes, then you shall not go at all.
Read about this yesterday on TNL. Here's hoping it moves quickly from "evaluation mode" to reality. Old school sprite BMan will guarantee a subscription from me to XBL.
Saturn B-man is teh B3st! I wish it was a sprite update tho. With all the graphical power of the saturn, I've always been dissapointed with the art direction of Sat B-man. Mainly with the low rez, but even worse, the low color count. But gameplay is all there and hasn't been touched since - evar!

April fools stuff? Maybe you're thinking of Bomberman Fight! but Saturn Bomberman is sprite based and in 640x480.
Didn't know the DS one didn't have online, that sorta sucks.
