The Conduit Drops Motion Plus, Adds Wii Speak

SEGA has further explained why the company opted not to use the new Wii MotionPlus for The Conduit.

"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" said Eric Nofsinger, VP of High Voltage. "[However] it didn't really add anything for our primarily ranged combat."

The Conduit however is going to be using Wii Speak for Wi-Fi play. However, judging by Nintendo's typical babysitting rules, it's assumed you can only speak with "friends."
