Wii Game: The Conduit The Conduit for Nintendo Wii


by Jason Wizkent

The game utilizes the Quantum 3 engine that is intended by High Voltage Software particularly for the Wii. IGN (Imagine Games Network) launched this game on April, 2008 and on October, 2008, Sega has become the games official publisher.

The game is very well-suited with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk because it was made to be a first-person shooter game wherein the gamer will experience the game like a real one. Unlike any other game controllers, the Wii Remote and Nunchuk are contoured perfectly to fit the gamers hand giving you a natural feel while navigating the controllers.

The storyline is all about an alien invading Washington, D.C. in the near future. As a result, the city is disturbed by several weird events thus causing a shocking local and national tension. Conduits are portal-like devices in which the alien race uses to set out their forces throughout the city. To protect the city, a secretive organization known as the Trust raise an army that will fight against the alien race identified as the Drudge.

By means of the Wii Remote, you can zoom in the image and the Nunchuk to throw grenades on the enemies. The controls can be changed depending on what you prefer but I didnt find the need to change anything because they are designed in a perfect place for quick access. You can shake the Nunchuk to reload and your Wii Remote to move your character.

The Conduit will allow you to create a team because of its online feature and it also works on a Local Area Network (LAN). Both the online multiplayer and LAN multiplayer can support up to 16 players at the same time. You can also communicate with each others team using online voice chat through the new Wii Speaker.

The Conduit was recognized for its amazing graphics and sound effects. It includes the reflection and refraction, bump-mapping, fresnel effects, light and shadow maps projections, motion blur, animated textures and a lot more. Because of these remarkable features of the game, The Conduit earned numerous awards and became the hottest game of the year for the Nintendo Wii in 2009.

This is definitely one modifiable game interface. The whole visual display can be customized with your personal preferences so you can maximize your gaming experience. You can move around your health bars, experience bars, your ammo count, etc to anywhere you want on the screen to maximize your visual area.
