    Why The Conduit Isn't Using Wii MotionPlus

    Kotaku answered many a Wii-gamers question when they asked Eric Nofsinger of High Voltage why Wii MotionPlus had been dropped from The Conduit. Here is what he had to say:
    "When we actually implemented it for the Conduit, it didn't really add anything for our primarily ranged combat," explains High Voltage VP Eric Nofsinger. "We had hoped that it would allow for better off screen IR tracking, but the device seems to lend itself more naturally for hand to hand combat where the player can calibrate in-between bouts."

    That's a little bit distressing to potential Wii MotionPlus owners looking forward to more, not less support for the one-to-one motion tracking peripheral. We know that Nintendo's own Wii Sports Resort relies on it, as does the EA Sports Wii lineup and expect more games to support it once, you know, the thing actually comes out.
