Even more details on The Conduit/High Voltage – CEO wouldn’t rule out game on 360/PS3
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
– Game has been in development for over 14 months
– On quality of Wii titles – High Voltage CEO and Founder, Kerry Ganofsky: “Everyone’s aware that a lot of the Wii product that’s been moved over is an afterthought. There’s the front line PS3/360 and then there’s a Wii port if you will or as publishers like to call them, ‘port pluses’. What we set out to do is actually create technology from the ground up and create a product from the ground up that’s Wii specific. We took the opposite approach and I think everything you’re seeing here shows it.”
– HV has talented engineers, have “rung out every ounce of power that they can” and Ganofsky believes “there’s still room from improvement”
– The Conduit appeals to the hardcore demographic but controls make it accessible to average Wii owner
– On The Conduit going over to the 360/PS3 – Ganofsky: “I wouldn’t rule anything out. There’s definitely a market there. There’s been companies doing PS3/360 shooters several revs deep now. There’s a time and a place for everything. If Nintendo, Sega and High Voltage come to an understanding, I think The Conduit could become the Halo for the Wii.”
