In a recent interview with IGN, Russ Bullock of Piranha Games revealed that his team is working on a new MechWarrior game. Here is what we know so far:
You may remember the MechWarrior games published by Activision, MicroProse, and Microsoft. The latter actually acquired FASA Interactive in the 1990s only to shutter the studio in 2007. However, the software giant retained the rights to the MechWarrior franchise. After leaving Microsoft, Weisman engaged in various pursuits before founding Smith and Tinker in 2007. That same year, Smith and Tinker acquired the rights to many FASA properties from Microsoft, including MechWarrior.
This new MechWarrior is set on the planet Deshler in the year 3015, and places players in the role of Adrian Khol, a wayward nobleman who prefers partying and shirking responsibility over his training and studies. However, when House Kurita launches a massive invasion to conquer Deshler, resulting in the death of his entire family, Khol discovers a purpose to fight for.

I am seriously looking forward to this. As long as the gameplay is good the title should translate well to either the PC or console platforms. The Wii could make this game awesome with the controllers but the PC or PS3 would be wonders in the graphics dept. (don't own an X-Box so don't know)
