Reasons why Nintendo will probably publish The Conduit.

For obvious looking reasons, it seems that BigN is going to be The Conduit's Publisher.

1) High Voltage still hasn't released the publisher's name....

2) WiiSpeak seems to have been approved for a while before E3 since HV jumped at it @ E3 while both Wii motion plus and WiiSpeak were announced at the same time.

3)Wii Friend codes are most probably going to stay, coming from the horse's mouth.

4) No DLC...   since Nintendo hasn't come out with a storage solution and The Conduit's release is pretty soon.

5) Nintendo needs this game, first to appease the hardcore gamers and to increase their library, and also the xbox price drop might actually put a small dent on their plans...

I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo release a price reduced black Wii, including a Counduit and Wiispeak bundle....           that would be sweet....huh?

nintendo really need games of higher quality than what 3rd party developers present. as I can remember the last good game on wii -other than 1st party games- is no more heroes & recently de blob.

The Conduit is looking really good, I hope that nintendo will do something.

update: WM+ has been added to The Conduit...
HVS got those development kits pretty quick...:)

point 4 is flawed, doesn't GH or RB have DLC even for wii?

"Nintendo needs this game, first to appease the hardcore gamers and to increase their library"

increasing their library is already happening.

condorstrike6096d ago

It wasn't really flawed since I posted this blog weeks before the storage solution announcement...
and I meant the hardcore-library.

stackr6097d ago

Now that the big N has given a storage solution maybe there will be DLC. Only sucky thing will be friend codes though. If Nintendo is the Publisher than maybe Mr.Ford could appear as a assit trophy or playable character in the new SSB!

I can only see Nintendo being the eventual publisher, tbh it's been looking likely for a while as I thought if the Conduit looked promising it would be pretty unwise of Ninty not to support a dev that decided to build for Wii alone from the ground up. Lets be straight here-The Conduit is starting to look the most likely candidate to become the game that finally nails what we all expected when we first saw the motion controls all that time ago-and that's a truly great FPS with(hopefully) online performance to match.

IDK about the bundle idea. this hasn't seemed a Nintendo tactic of late and is the Conduit well known enough outside this type of circle to yet be a great console shifting game? I hope it becomes a franchise capable of doing that but , for me, it's still waay too early. Does look really good though.

yeh i agree.

the funmy thing is tho, theworld map road drivingz reminds me sooo much of Diddy Kong racing.

Sounds like the Switch 2 itself...$100 too much for the hardware.

At £75 ($101), I soon got bored of it, even free roam. All old tracks up to now, can't fault much else, but maybe some of the characters are stupid. It's just not as good as Mario Kart 8, which was a Wii U port on Switch. Went back to Mario Kart 8, World doesn't come close even if you play the Wii U version.

"the game runs at its best on the PS5 Pro in Performance mode, with a higher average resolution compared to the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions in Graphics mode"

MS evidently enjoying Pro devkits. Thank you Team Xbox.

Most fun I've had in a gears mp game in a long time.

It looks so crisp and smooth.

120fps locked maxed out on a 4070 at 1440 ultrawide, Series X feels just as good and locks at 120 too. As it does everywhere according to this. Coalition knows their tech

If the Pro is the most powerful console, It should run the best on that console, I would think.

I’m glad not every team under Microsoft’s banner is on some clear bs like the Doom team is.
