The recently released MadWorld and House of the Dead: Overkill both earned raves from gamers who are tired of waggling and Miis, but the console still has a long way to go if it wants to cast off the stink of casual. Perhaps the most high-profile title drawing interest from the hardcore is The Conduit, and it seems poised to deliver yet another blow to the Wii's casual-friendly cred."
There’s a consensus about Splatoon 1 that cannot be disputed: motion controls are the way to play. The Wii U Gamepad had its many problems on the system as a whole, but along with the way in which the touch screen was implemented in the first game like I mentioned in my last piece, using the Gamepad’s gyroscope was deemed a superior way to play compared to traditional joystick control.
Rustyshell.com: The Conduit strived to be the quality FPS experience Wii owners were missing out on, with quality graphics and a robust online multiplayer component.
Hardcore Gamer: The Conduit was an interesting first-person shooter that sneaked its way onto the Wii amid a deluge of shovelware and "family" games.
