The Conduit is shaping up to be the total third-party Wii package. The graphics, gameplay, and controls are all nailed down. Oh, and don’t forget online play. High Voltage Software is doing its best to deliver the best online experience, but is also interested in adding LAN play in the game. Speaking with 4 color rebellion, High Voltage Software’s Eric Nofsinger explained, “Our plan is to deliver a solid multiplayer experience both online and LAN.” You might also be interested in knowing that The Conduit was influenced by the likes of Halo and Golden Eye – two very huge and revered games!

We brought you the scoop on Astro Ranch for the DS yesterday, but you might be delighted to hear that the developers of the game are looking into a way for players of the iPhone, N-Gage, and DS to be able to interact with each other. “Right now the connectivity aspect of the game is the biggest technical hurdle for us to overcome,” Paul Farley said. “Not only do we want players with iPhone’s to be able to connect to each other but for the connected features to be device agnostic meaning it won’t matter if you have an iPhone, N-Gage, DS or even mobile version of the game the same functionality will be available across them all.”

“Well it’s funny, I was at LucasArts a lot during E3 and it was the forefront of what we were talking about. I mean obviously this year we can’t, since the device isn’t coming out yet, and Force and Clone are both hitting by thanksgiving, so that’s out of the question. With the other stuff we’re working on now though, we’re definitely looking to incorporate it, so… I think next year it’s going to be really, really cool. You’re right though. The 1:1 control is on everybody’s lips now, and yeah, not this year, but for next year we’re definitely working on something. I’ll leave it at that.”

“Well… We’re doing at least two more Wii titles for next year; maybe three. You know, we did Spyro already on Wii, we’ve got Force as our second one, and Clone as number three, so we’ve actually done three this year as well. It’s a great console, it has performed really well in the marketplace, and Nintendo has created a device that people really want to play. They didn’t necessarily go after “bigger and better” in every way – the power of the system, for example – but they made something people want to play, and it’s paying off.”

– Robert Walsh, Krome CEO

Down the line, I’m sure Krome (or at least a different company), will attempt for 1:1 controlling options for Star Wars titles. Meanwhile, Clone Wars and The Force Unleashed seem like two very respectable titles.

“We still have a [censored] ace up our sleeve. It’s an ace, a [censored] ace… At TGS (Tokyo Game Show), the Capcom booth stage is going to make people’s balls pucker up. It’s going to be big.” – Ben Judd, Capcom

This doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s Nintendo related, but after the news that Bionic Commando Rearmed won’t be seeing a Wii release (for the foreseeable future, in any case), I’m hoping that the Wii will end up with some sort of Bionic Commando title.

Bionic Commando Rearmed recently released on the PSN, PC, and XBLA, but the prospect of a WiiWare – or even Wii retail – version edition was never truly discussed. However, Capcom’s Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development was approached with a question regarding a possible Wii disc release and provided a lucid answer. “No plans at this time. Sorry.”

Nothing is ruled out for the future, it seems. Nonetheless, it’s worth noting that Bionic Commando Rearmed is a spectacular game; Moreover, it would be a wise purchase on XBLA, PC, or PSN.
