The Conduit - High Tech Wii Demo

"We think it's a real shame that publishers and developers aren't taking advantage of the technical possibilities of the Wii platform. Most Wii games don't even look as good as the later day PS2 titles and that's a real slap in the face to consumers," seconds Kerry Ganofsky, CEO and founder, High Voltage Software. "We believe that third-party developers need to step up to the plate and deliver. The Wii platform is capable of a lot more than what consumers have seen so far. We're hoping to raise a new bar."

Nofsinger takes it a step farther. "Most of the games on the Wii look like crap. We want to change that, so we've invested heavily in our Wii tech over the past year. We have real-time normal mapping, reflection and refraction, post process full screen effects, real-time shadows, projected lights and textures, specularity and fresnel effects, emissive and iridescent materials, interactive water, morphing, and much more all running with a rock solid frame rate on the Wii. Our goal is to be the most technically innovative Wii developer on the planet."

When you think on not exclusive games, such as call of duty: world at war. You dont really see a difference on the game on all 3 consoles. Its just a little change....on the graphics. The rest is the same.

[kreamofkorn420]

I wish that were true. I just got Call of Duty World at War for the Wii. I don't know how the graphics are on the other systems, but the Wii version lacked quite a few things that the 360/PS3 versions had, like zombies and vehicles.

no more heroes doesn't have shitty controls i don't know where you get that from.

and its got a great story line have you even played it and mario zelda and SSBB are far from gimmicky.

you probly never even played half the games you hate the wii so much so i doubt you own one.

the wii is a great console and you can't see why.

[wolffangalchemist]

c'mon everything i said about it not sucking you said that sucks.

the wii isn't as powerful as the ps3 or 360 but it is a good console and doesn't deserve to be under graded anymore than the other 2.

i know first hand the controls aren't gimmicky

you sound like a Nintendo hater to me.

if I'm a fan boy I'm one of all 3 consoles.

you could have easily said we'll i don't like it it's not for me.

@superkellerman8D Okay. Well, now that the Wii U is coming out next year, it's not really an issue anymore.

[superkellerman8D]

Problem is, it's a bitch to program and there's little documentation on how to actually do it.

F-Zero GX on the game cube looked better.
