“We [at EA] think we can take a more Western approach to fitness, something a little more active that gets you moving. “[Our peripheral will] measure intensity, how strong your thrusts are, [and] how high you jump.” – EA Sports executive producer Dave McCarthy

“It’s early days to talk about how much we will spend to support the game, but the buzz that HVS have already generated for The Conduit is absolutely outstanding. All metrics indicate extremely high awareness with Wii consumers. We will absolutely put a world-class marketing campaign behind the launch of the game – but we’re helped by the fact this game is so good that it sells itself!” – SEGA of America’s president, Simon Jeffery

Other tidbits coming from Simon Jeffrey:

– SEGA drawn to The Conduit by the reaction of the gaming community
– Not talking about publishing other sequels yet
– Might publish other High Voltage Software games

The Conduit is one of those games that I would hope would receive a considerable amount of marketing. The hardcore audience obviously knows about the game, but what about the average Joe?

“There’s only one undiscovered Mega Man 9 secret that I know about… I don’t predict anyone will discover this one for quite a while yet…” – Seth Killian, Capcom Community Sr. Manager

So, this must mean that when you have a saved file of Mega Man 9 on your Wii and a copy of Brawl, you can unlock Mega Man if you play over 100,000 hours in Smash Bros. Oh, who am I kidding?
