RE4 while not a pure shooter, had very good shooting controls.

Well, we're getting that james bond game & the new CoD on the Wii so i think activision is helping to lead the way. Just like they did with the music genre on the Wii.

I'm certain those 2 titles will sell enough on wii as well as conduit & we will see many more shooters on wii after that

Controls aren't everything...

Mic, for online chatting. Yes the Conduit does not currently feature WiiSpeak compatability but they have a few months where they could definatly pull it off. If they do manage to pull it off and The Conduit gets audio it will hands down become one of the best shooter's online. I mean the likes of Halo3, COD4 have all sported online chat via the head set. Even if the conduit doesn't feature headset another shooter sooner or later will.

 

I thought I read somewhere that the Conduit was indeed featuring wiiSpeak?

 

Or did I read wrong?

 

I'll look around

I love the Wii.

I love MP3.

I loved MoH:H2.

The problem is that consumers don't buy Wii's for shooters.

13-17 boys (and probably half of male gamers 18-30) play brown realistic shooters and want it to look as real as possible.

Everybody else doesn't real care too much about shooters.

I like the games above because they are good, not because they are shooters. (I also like Team Fortress 2, it scares the little'uns away with it's cartoony look)



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

I always felt that the Wii was a natural home for First Person Shooters. I'm actually surprised it's taking this long to get the FPS genre going on the system. Two years ago, I figured that, by this point, the Wii would have TONS of FPS titles.

Instead, it got more Shmups than anyone else, thanks to Turbo-Grafx being in the Virtual Console.

Either way, it's still sorta shooterriffic.

The conduit does support wii motion+ and wii speak, but doesnt use motion plus a lot. They didn't want to overuse motoin plus because they thought it would make it to complicated.It does have 16 player online with ctf , ffa , tdm modes already confirmed. They are still working on multiplayer. They want the conduit to have a strong wifi game so im thinking they are making there own server. They want this to be the online game for wii like halo 3 for 360 and resistance 2 for ps3 will be. This will be the best online experience on wii if it has a ranking system better than quantium of solace's which was stupid.
