'The Conduit' Already Has 'MotionPlus' Support, WiiSpeak Too

MTV Multiplayer's Patrick Klepek reports:

"High Voltage Software has received heaps of attention for "The Conduit," a hardcore-focused shooter designed from the ground up for Wii.

The studio is intent on making full use of the Wii's capabilities, High Voltage COO Eric Nofsinger told me at Nintendo's fall summit in San Francisco yesterday.

"The Conduit" will support both the Wii MotionPlus accessory - they just received development kits - and the "Animal Crossing"-linked WiiSpeak."

its funny how developers cried that there wouldn't be enough time to use motion plus for their current games...

Work!

Even HVS already confirms that it will support M+.
so if other developers are releasing their stuff next year too they shouldn't be crying about not having enough time or that the project is far in developement.

If they release the games around the same time as HVS and not having motion plus than there is no excuus.

in return, i shall grant you a bubble...
( not sure if it has any affect since i really don't get how you actually get a bubble...i mean like it still needs to have something nalanced out before you actually get one or something.)

So the conduit is where mah wii-boys chill. ^-^
It looks amazing, they should license the engine out as the Congine or the enguit or something equally ridiculous.

lol true bu then again i think more effort is going into the Conduit then most titles......although there are alot of titles next year for the wii that look promising without the aid of motion plus
Do we know if Madworld or HotD:Overkill will support either of these?

Awesome and to true sidar if HVS can throw together support for M+ and WiiSpeak why can't others who have games coming out after it... Ah well what can you do. This game will be sweet though :)

that looks like a generic og xbox shooter, lets hope the motion controls alone make it worth playing. I'm surprised ubisoft isn't picking up publishing rights for it, because even a generic shooter would sell big on the wii.

looks like a generic wii hater, lets hope you come up with a better argument. Until then, the open zone is to the right.

I just watched some of the new videos IGN has up! I really like what I see, except when some of the enemies were shot they kind of flung their head back and ran a few steps then righted themselves and then died. I think it looks a little funny because they are leaning back to long from bullet impact. Just a minor detail, though.

6 - This game
Is looking great, the controls seem to be spot on graphics are polished and fluid, now we have Wii speak confirmation AND WM+. It just gets better and better. This game absolutely puts lazy devs on blast. In creating any quality game on any platform it requires time, patience, and dedication. HVS seems to have shown that with the Conduit, and when the game releases if the general consensus is that this game kicks a$$ then I will be picking it up and seeing some of you folks online.

PS: Why and where are some of these disagrees coming from? Product, Sidar, Wiirocker and PS360Wii said nothing to warrant a disagree in my opinion.

I like to call them the disagreeing phantoms.
it seems they hardly have a voice(...yeah its the internet so we are typing words whatever xD) but always have an opinion!

You actually need [Level 70 Web-Glasses +12] in order to see them!
And who knows you might enter the second castle that is upside down...and defeat some vampire in the end.

I don't take the disagree/agree serious anymore.
its flawed, they should force people to make an argument/comment.

its pretty much pointless.

Im with sidar...i say what i say......if people disagree then whatever.I come on here to view 10 or so peoples opinions because they always bring good comments and constructive criticism to the table and your one of them Arius....i think you know the others.

Going back to the topic though this title is not a generic shooter because its on the wii and the wii is lacking at the moment with great fps support.So this title is needed.
There are some things i dont like about it like death animation but i think they are REALLY improving when it comes to the fluid movement and action.The controls look perfect from the look of the cursor movement.Very smooth,coming along.

9 - What...
... about the battery life for the Wiimote, I am so excited about The Conduit and think it's absolutely amazing. But doesn't Wii MotionPlus drain the Wiimote battery to a just a few hours of gameplay.
Please correct me if i'm wrong!

why not just buy a recharge station?
I bought one that charges 2 controllers at once.I will admit that the charge only lasts for about 3 to 4 hours(up to 4 hours of gameplay) and although that isnt much compared to actual rechargeable batteries is really good because i never worry about it ever running out.
After im done i just put it on the charger till next time, i never have ever worried about running out since i bought it.

Imagine having two dongles attached to your wiimote.

9.3 - Thanks...
... I'll probably buy another better recharge station then. The one I got now is crap, the battery only lasts for about an hour and a half.

I'm looking at the one that charges through the Wiimote jackets, anyone know what it's called or where to get that from?

its pretty expensive but its offically licensed by nintendo as the only recharge station
its called the Sanyo Eneloop recharge station.

... Product, i'll get that, i'm tired of changing batteries all the time. Very very good recharge station, but hard to find as it's a Japan only product. Any sites you can suggest? :D

Edit: Argh what! Now i'm only down to 3 damn bubbles! Thanks in advance if you put up any sites.

Ok this game is now on every bodies radar officially. With motion plus it can only rock now!

We need a new public demo of this!

WOW this is going to be big people.

Sidar is right more games should have motion+ support but it may still happen and also motion+ fixes some motions and actually makes making motions easier to program into your game and animations. The only thing that could stop you is a frozen budget and a publisher that is unwilling to truly compete.

The Wii gun sell makers should be all on top of this game too!
