Bethesda has plenty of experience with non-traditional platforms. If I remember correctly, they had an Elder Scrolls game on the NGage.

  They had Oblivion on phone as well. A form of it anyway.

  Yeah, this isn't really anything new. It's their Vir2L Studios division that does this stuff. Along with their mobile games they've already released a bowling game on Wii and a couple of DS games.
