Conduit developer speaks about the Wii and the 'core gamer'. - 01-09-09

If you have never heard of High Voltage Software's upcoming Wii shooter, The Conduit, I'm not sure what to say to you. High Voltage Software are on a mission to prove to developers that a high-quality core video game will sell on the Wii if enough effort is put into development. Recently, the...

Have fun playing games for 8 year olds.But honestly,the wii is a load of s**t at the moment and I know I'm going to get a lot of stick from fan boys but I'm not a Microsoft fan boy.I've been playing Nintendo for years and when the wii came out I got it as fast as I can,but only a handful of game have actually been good.At least HVS recognize the needs and exsistance of the hardcore game(or the people who like playing decent games).They wont sell a lot of this game but at least we know that someone tried to save what could have been a brilliant console

What the heck? How do you already know that this game won't sell? Don't you understant that the whole reason their making this game is to prove people like YOU wrong?

As for what we learned, one of the biggest lessons was to not abuse the motion controls. Too many games seemed to put in motions controls for the sake of having them, rather than testing to see if they were good for gameplay. Honestly, sometimes a button press is the best solution, rather than a gimmicky gesture. So our motions are relatively minor and don’t get in the way of gameplay.

THANKYOU!!!!! i dont see why the hell nintendo makes the controls so difficult thinking it would be "fun" but buttons presssing does help alot!!! mario kart wii, wii wheel sucks use gamecube controller, same on ssbb. i hated starfox ds for that, controls so hard, the control pad wouldve been much better for more awsome tight dogfights

Re: Conduit developer speaks about the Wii and the 'core gamer'.

just becouse the wii doesnt have the same processing power as the 360 & the ps3 doesnt mean its not a next gen consol iv always thoght next gen has been about changes & inprovements in a consol from the previoes not trying to be another consol. every consol in the past have done the same thing just better garfix. the grafix are better then the previous consol & the wii has finally broght motion sensitive controls to gaming which is something diffrent & who doesnt think thats next gen?.

It's sad considering that so many developers are using the Wii has a means of just making money off of crappy software. I really hope this game sells well. I'll be buying it for sure.

Little motion controllers? Awesome! You have no idea how many games I hate that over use the wiimote's motion gameplay. Im am glad that these developers are looking to prove that there can be such thing as a core game for the wii. But still, even if this game sells like crazy, other developers would still see the Wii as a casual game system. The only way to get lots of developers is to catch up with technology.

I Like the wii but Its still last on my list, I personally still beleive that even the DS is better.
