Even though there are some stand-out FPS titles on the Wii, the release of such games are too few and far between. Metroid Prime 3 was essentially the stepping stone for FPS controls on Wii, followed by Medal of Honor: Heroes 2. What does High Voltage Software, creators of The Conduit think about FPS games on the Wii? Eric Nofsinger, in an interview with NintendoFIN, noted that Nintendo’s system is best for FPS titles. “Well, the Wii has the unique motion-sensitive controls that make it the best platform for FPS games; this means we have weapons and gameplay that makes use of motions and movements that other games cannot. We also have some interesting puzzle-solving going on with our All Seeing Eye (ASE) device that allows players to reveal invisible hazards, secrets, and enemies. And last, but not least, its NOT set during World War II.”

Nofsinger also revealed that The Conduit will not support split-screen multiplayer, although the development team is considering co-op options. Additionally, High Voltage Software is trying to decide whether to put Animales de la Muerte up as a full retail release.
