Just role over to NeoGaf Forum, where the thread kicks off a discussion under a mainstream-article with some interesting quotes from the various game-developers. Reconsider the quote in bolds, which sounds a bit fishy:
The head of the LucasArts, the game division for "Star Wars" series creator George Lucas, told AFP a Wii game that lets players wield virtual light sabers is on the horizon.

The quote has left lots of questions unanswered, like which Star Wars game is coming to Nintendo’s futuristic console Wii. IS he talking about Star Wars: The Force Unleashed or Traveller's Tales’ Lego Star Wars that is coming to Wii, sometime this Fall in USA, is unknown.
I’d like to take the scrap for real, because George can't fool us like this (well, I find a pretty firm bond between VP Craig Relyea (Disney Interactive Studios) and George Lucas’ quote, because both seem talking inventiveness of Wii platform).
Anyway, wait and watch, which way the wind blows!
