High Voltage “only just getting started,” comments on sales expectations for The Conduit

“…We do feel the pressure to continue to make great games. One of the great things about High Voltage is the passion. The teams here are some of most dedicated people that I have ever worked with and I am continually impressed by how much quality work they deliver. This passion is what drives our studio and recently we have only seen it increase. More than anything, we want to be known as the studio that makes fun games that push the perceived limits. Although we have accomplished a lot over the past 16 years, it really feels like we just graduated and now it is time to apply what we’ve learned and prove we are great developer. We are only just getting started. We have so much more we want to do…We want people to play the game because we think that anyone who does is going to enjoy the experience. As to sales estimates, we humbly hope it outsells every game ever made. [laughs] Seriously, we sincerely hope we have earned Wii owner’s support in our efforts. The more support we receive, the more we will funnel those profits into even better original games for them.” – Eric Nofsinger, Chief Creative Office of High Voltage Software

I really feel like High Voltage will emerge as one of the more prominent Wii developers over the next few years. Being able to create The Conduit was a huge opportunity for the company. HVS didn’t exactly have the best track record in the past, but they’re doing a lot to reinvent themselves.
