yeah,
The hype around this game is already big(yes people it actually is XD). Lot's of Wii gamers are expecting much from this game.
If this is a Solid game, Nintendo as a publisher could benefit from this too.

Nintendo will make sure it gets published, but they won't put their name on it, because of the shooting and killing.
Nintendo aspire to becoming the Disney of the Video Game industry.

I'm not too sure they're as strict as they used to be - this'll look just like Metriod.

I think the most positive thing about this game is that as good as it seems to be, it is a 3rd party offering. If Nintendo were to publish it then we may get a push for more of the decent 3rd party Wii games to be published by Nintendo, which would give us this:

1st party games would continue to typically be awesome.

2nd party games would be where it's at for outsiders if they can get Nintendo to bite.

3rd party games would slip farther and farther into crap world and cheap fast mini-games.

This might sound o.k. on the surface, but really, how many second party games is Nintendo going to put the money and support out there for? 3rd party-wise, we'd be stuck with pretty much whatever EA decides to give us, Guitar hero, and the occasional decent 3rd party game that someone took a chance with. I'd rather Nintendo didn't publish The Conduit.

5 - This game needs to do a lot more to make me look forward to it.
All I see right now is sci-fi FPS.

It's one more sci-fi fps on the wii than how many we have now, which is 0. So I'm happy.

I'm looking forward to The Conduit looks because it will have a decent online with voice chat (which is pretty sad that this is a selling point on the wii) and the graphics aren't of PS2 quality. However lack of split screen makes me sad :(

i think it would be good if it got published by nintendo cuz then it would get a lot more commercial succes and publicity and otherwise people would just think its some sh1tty 3d party game.
