NowGamer: High Voltage Art Director Matt Corso thinks the aging Wii can be pushed even further...
Back in 2011, way before Splatoon was known to the world, Nintendo approached the developer of Wii FPS The Conduit to co-create a non-violent water pistol shooter as a first-party exclusive. However, leaks at the studio quickly led to the project's cancellation.
Damaged Core is a VR first person shooter from High Voltage Software that is coming to Oculus Rift. It's set in a futuristic world where robots have become sentient and have decided to wipe out biological sentience. Humanity's last hope lies with you, another sentient robot, but one that was built to defend humanity and with the ability to transfer its consciousness into other robots and take them over.
New Orleans is celebrating 10 years of growth post-Katrina. One of the economic areas the city, as well as the state of Louisiana, has focused on since the Category 5 hurricane caused an estimated $150 billion in damage in 2005 is video game development. The state has offered as much as 35% incentives for game developers interested in starting up new studios or expanding existing studios.
Of course.. Don't you know? The Wii is the most powerfulz in this gen.. duh, thought everybody knew that already :D
/s
All jokes aside though, I'm interested to see how much more power they can squeeze out of the ol' lil' Wii :)
what people dont understand is the Conduit 2 is looking like high end HD game but with superior game modes and controls its using a lighting system that is used in games like resistance and halo its a beast and im buying it day 1 all u need is Mario galaxy 1 and 2 the Conduit2 and Zelda SS/Zelda 25th ect saying the wii is ageing is stupid if every dev was using the resourses HVS use then Fifa would look equal to HD twins in 480p ect Racing games would be on par with HD twins ect 480p wouldnt be an issue if devs actually used the Hardware even Conduit1 looks HD more than ED ect due to HDR/AA ect HVS say in terms of graphics alot more is achievable because the Grinder looks better than most ps3 games period Nintendo should publish it i mean if devs actually used the wii harware instead of doing updated gamecube quality games the system would look fine if u just buy Nintendo/HVS/Capcom games on Wii u have HD quality games 4 £30 a pop online the Conduit 2 has online that matches any FPS available and with the right adverts can be the new Goldeneye/Halo 4 Wii easy it has DLC as the wi-fi logo is black new maps/weapons wow
Of course if you are dedicated to certain hardware you can do a lot with it.
Of course everything walks towards a limit.
look at the HD games before optimised game engines the graphics were poor every publisher has invested 10s of millions to get game engines up and running otherwise the HD consoles would look the same as Wii in general look at the wii games built on decent engines MH3/Darkside Chronicles/Conduit series/Galaxy2/Zelda SS/Red steel built on BGAE2 engine/ect to name a few look amazing end of the wii only suffers from lack of investment not lack of power the ps2 was 133mhz gpu look at GT4 and ps2 had 4 pixel pipelines not 8 like wii it also couldnt do HDR and AA at the same time my point closed
they could claim to make the wii even more powerful than the most powerful gaming pc but if that technology isnt put into decent games then its useless.
