This information comes from a post on the Capcom-Unity forums…

“I’ve got no updates to provide on new potential titles for Z&W. Sorry.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

As much as I’d rather not say this, I don’t think we’re going to see a Zack & Wiki sequel anytime soon…If ever. It’s such a shame that it wasn’t a commercial success, especially with the numerous attempts to get the word out about the title.

As soon as The Conduit made its first appearance on IGN, the title seemed to have almost immediately garnered attention from major publishers. High Voltage slowed down the process though, and chose to collaborate with a company that would not hinder development of their title. After a few months, it was finally announced that SEGA would be publishing The Conduit. But you may be wondering the following: How did SEGA’s interest in The Conduit start and why was it decided that the company would be willing to publish the game? SEGA product manager German Fritsch provided an explanation in a recent Radio-Blodec podcast, which we’ve translated below.

“SEGA is expanding enough to reach all types of people and recognized that there is much potential in the different consoles. PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 have a more conventional demographic. In the case of Wii, it’s assumed, or it looks like, other publishers are thinking of making more casual games. But SEGA recognizes that there are gamers like all of us. We have a Wii to make use of the controls, SEGA wants to give players an opportunity to have fun with the console and The Conduit was the perfect title.”

Outside of first-party Nintendo titles, the Wii hasn’t been home to the most graphically superior games. MadWorld, Monster Hunter 3, and The Conduit are a few products that come to mind, but there aren’t a ton of other titles that stand out visually. However, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers’ character designer Toshiyuki Itahana believes that he’s working on one third-party game that is pushing Wii graphics to their “fullest potential.”

“We were extra careful about things like making sure to including exciting and heroic highlight scenes at regular intervals in the scenario, and using the visual capabilities of the Wii [console] to its fullest potential. Even right now, and for as long as time permits, the development team will continue to pour their efforts into the presentation and sound for a final product that looks and feels great.”

This is obviously an incomplete listing, as titles such as FFCC: The Crystal Bearers are absent.
