Forums - Nintendo - The conduit will run in 30 fps... not 60 fps WAIT WHAT?!!

I guess I wasn't very clear on that end but yes there are many graphic displays that can show all 60 fps such as you mentioned LCDs (HDTV or computer monitor).

When I said interlaced, I meant your common Cathode Ray Tube TV.

The visual difference in 30 and 60 fps is smoother animation. It is more noticeable on an LCD because it's not interlaced. The actual speed of the game doesn't change (as some people believe) nor does it change the graphics themselves.

Before anyone asks, 120hz HDTV's are ideal for movies since they are recorded at 24 fps making it easy to do a 5:5 ratio (drawing the scenes exactly 5 times per second - 5 * 24 fps = 120 hz) but won't help video games much because they are already working at higher frame rates than video (30 fps or 60 fps)

Someone asked before why they don't use 45 fps as a middle ground. 45 fps would require the TV or game console to rework the signal to match up with the refresh rate of the TV itself (60 hz) but 30 fps and 60 fps are easy to work with.

AH OK THANKS snake... So I shouldnt expect that much on what TVs can do especially on comparing with PCs, I should be even grateful that a game with great graphics was running in constant 30fps. Sorry for the topic then, anyway I change my mind, The Conduit running in 30 fps constant wasnt bad after all especially if its a console game.

I wish luck on High Voltage bringing this game on the Wii. I hope it sells.

That's the spirit.

The difference in 30 fps and 60 fps are hardly a deal breaking issue when it comes to consoles. It's nice to have at 60 fps but hard to notice the difference unless you're seeing the game side by side at 30 fps and 60 fps.

If you've enjoyed console gaming for the past several years then you won't have a problem with Conduit at 30 fps because a large percentage of games from last gen and even this gen are running at 30 fps.

yushire, you need to stop trolling.

I could point to dozens of 360 and PS3 games that only run at 30 fps...many big-name titles.

It's common practice for Wii, 360, and PS3 games to run at 30 fps when trying for more intense graphics...probably about half of modern videogames are 30 fps, half are 60.

So quit acting like this is something new; we're not stupid, we know COD4 runs at 60 fps...your point is? 

 Actually I believe this is the first wii game to run at 30fps.


 That better be sarcasm.

Really? What games run at 30fps on the wii?

I think most of that list might be right because most of those are ports, but I believe I remember hearing in a video review of RE4wii edition that capcom made it run at 60fps. Some of those games also don't sound right seeing as alot of those don't seem to push the wii at all. Maybe the developers were to lazy to optimize for the wii.

There's a whole lot of them.

 No.  NTSC (US) SDTV's run at 60hz.  What you are talking about is the interlacing.  The image itself is still displayed 60 times per second but only half the lines are drawn each time.

Have you read the article above? even developer make a 60 fps game in any console you'll hardly see the difference because TVs always make the 30 fps lock. No more than that. And yeah, I research more on this framerate and refresh rate thing and its the graphics card that can make a game in 60 fps or more, not the monitor its different in consoles, the TV dictates what should seen in the screen so even how powerful the console was you really cant see the 60 fps thing. TVs relies on refresh rates to make the graphics or picture quality good, not the framerates unless your TV have its own GPU.
