Forums - Nintendo Discussion - High Voltage - what do you guys think?

They have a pretty bad track record, but seem to have made some serious effort on the Wii with The Conduit and now with their new WiiWare game Gyrostarr . Do you think that they could actually make this work?

Gyrostarr

4 player co op or competitive, 50 levels, flying shooting spacecraft with a variety of weapons and power ups, intra-level acheivments, 480p and 16:9, 700 Wii points.

not bad. 

 

 

edit: I can't embedd, I'm just to stupid. Trying to embedd it now.

i cant see the vid



 

High Voltage and Red Fly took the gamble of making something great from the ground up for Wii where the big companies failed.

I'm sure they'll be very successful, whether the titles become a success or not, because as Wii breaks record after record the big devs need people that have experience in pushing Wii's hardware, and they will be one of the very few. Also High Voltage has made an engine for Wii, which could expand their success dramatically.



I think Gyrostarr looks awesome. Not sold on The Conduit yet though.

My thoughts exactly. I think Wii owners would welcome a FPS to their library, but I also think most Wii owners are not FPS nuts and would only have 1 or 2 excellent FPS in their collection for the whole generation. So I think an excellent FPS (with split-screen and online) would do great numbers, but a mediocore one....

 

Hmm, IGN seemed to be all about them. Since I know very little, I'm all for them until they do something to pit me against them.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

This is a day 1 WiiWare purchase for me.

The screen shots of conduit look very, very good IMHO. I'm looking forward to seeing how the game progresses. Hopefully they do have a fairly decent story and the gameplay is solid/fun. If it is just a boring run-n-gun FPS, I'll pass.
