The Conduit will probably stay on Wii

“[Considering The Conduit on the 360/PS3] Not at all. Not even for just the core controls. We’ve got a lot of Wii specific weaponry that affords the type of gameplay that you can’t do on the PS3 and 360. For example, a couple of weapons like the Shrieker, which is sort of a guided missile. Once you launch the projectile, you actually guide your shot and twist and turn it. You get really good at it, it’s definitely a skill based mechanic. It’s not a waggle the Wii-mote kind of thing. When you’re guiding the projectile around you can actually get it to circle enemies and things like that which is awesome for multiplayer cause you can totally screw with people…” – Eric Nofsinger, Chief Creative Officer at High Voltage

“For those reasons and more, what Eric is pointing out, is why in the beginning of the interview, when you discussed the other titles for the PS3 and the 360, (unlike games for those consoles) this was designed for the Wii from the ground up. And, those are specific features for the Wii. Would we want to see that on a 360 or PS3? Sure. But, could we do it? Not with those interfaces. And, that’s what makes this product special.” – Kerry J. Ganofsky, CEO/Founder of High Voltage

This is a bit different that what we previously heard from Ganofsky. He had said that he “wouldn’t rule anything out” about bringing The Conduit to the 360/PS3 just a few weeks ago…But I suppose he changed his mind!
