LONDON & SAN FRANCISCO (10th June, 2010) – SEGA® Europe Ltd. and SEGA® of America, Inc. today announced that Conduit 2™, the latest collaboration with High Voltage Software, will support Wii MotionPlus™ enabling precision control and better tracking. The Conduit series is famed for its detailed control system allowing players to customise and configure their controls, including look sensitivity, turning speed, the dead zone and much more. Conduit 2 will use Wii MotionPlus to create the most responsive control system ever, as well as improved edge tracking and transitions to pointer control.

“Wii MotionPlus is something that the fans have been asking for since it was announced – we looked at it for the original game, took a look at its implementation in other titles, and ultimately felt that we could add to the experience in Conduit 2 by supporting it.” explains Eric Nofsinger, Chief Creative Officer of High Voltage Software.“It’s by no means required – gamers will have a great experience without it – but it does offer a level of extra control and adds value to those with the accessory.”

Conduit 2 will be playable at SEGA’s booth (#2023) at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo and will be released exclusively for the Wii™ system from Nintendo in Fall 2010.

The Castlevania series has been well represented on Nintendo systems, especially in recent years. Three titles in the franchise have been released on the DS while the Wii has been treated to an original fighter as well as a number of classic games made through the Wii Shop Channel. The latest Castlevania title, Lords of Shadow, was announced two years ago, but there was never even a peep that it would ever come to the Wii or DS.

So, why was did the developers decided against creating a different version for either Nintendo system? According to Lords of Shadow producer Dave Cox, the team “didn’t want to do a family friendly version.”

“…The reason we didn’t do Wii or DS, or anything else like that, is because we wanted to bring it into the mainstream. And in many ways mainstream gaming is Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. We didn’t want to do a family friendly version. This is a pretty dark game and just wouldn’t work on the Nintendo systems.”

This message was posted on n-Space’s Facebook page a few days ago…

“e3 starts in 9 days… what will we be able to talk about then? Look for the announce of our Wii title and maybe a suprise DS announcement.”

n-Space has been rumored to be working on the DS version of GoldenEye 2010, so that’d fit in right with the announcement for that system. Although, it’s not really a surprise anymore, is it?!

Thanks to TJ for the tip!

Nintendo has provided a firm release date for Metroid: Other M in North America and Japan, but out friends in Europe have been left waiting to know when they can play Samus’ next adventure. Well, if some information from a distributor is to be believed, the game will be hitting European territories on September 24. An official date probably isn’t too far away, as Nintendo tends to share worldwide launch details about their titles at E3.

Thanks to VySe for the tip!
