Telltale Games - Sam & Max Wii coming Oct. 7 in North America!

Sam & Max Wii coming Oct. 7 in North America!
Posted by Emily	September 17, 2008
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a release date! (For North America, anyway.) Starting October 7, you will be able to walk into a store, hand over $29.99, and get a shiny new copy of Sam & Max Season One for your Wii. We know some of you have been waiting for Sam & Max on the Wii for a long time now, and after two years of rumors and anticipation, it's finally a reality. To celebrate the first Sam & Max console release ever, GameStop has a special preorder deal going on: reserve your copy of the game, and when it arrives you'll also get a free bonus CD with a behind the scenes featurette, trailers, desktop wallpapers, and an MP3 soundtrack sampler. (This is the same CD that came with the retail PC version.) The deal is good on their website and in stores. Okay, so here's how you can help. Back when the Wii rumors first started up, there was a ton of movement on the internet as fans let us know just how much you wanted Sam & Max on the Wii. It's time to put that excitement to good use. Now that the release is approaching, you can really help us out by preordering and proving that Sam & Max is a perfect fit for the Wii, and the type of game retailers should be stocking. It's not just a line... preorders really do make a difference! Please help us show the world that games like Sam & Max -- games that are funny, tell great stories, and are pretty damn entertaining even without a body count -- have a place in the market. I mean, we've already seen that when a lot of people all ask for the same thing, it CAN make a difference. It's one of the reasons Sam & Max made it to Wii in the first place. Now, let's make it count. International customers, don't despair! We hope to have news on availability in other territories very soon.

	Season one has at least one body count, depending on whether you count a bacterial colony as one entity or a billion.

	Is this version multilingual?

	No, there are no overt sexual acts.

	I seriously read the last line in the first paragraph as, "it's finally a Wii-ality"!! I need sleep....

	Is this version multilingual? The North American includes English, French, and Spanish. The European version includes English, French, Spanish, Italian, and German. European customers shouldn't buy the North American version, though. I don't think it'll work on your Wii.

	I've had this game on preorder from amazon for months. Believe me, i'm excited.

	Is there anything changed according to the pc version? It has widescreen support, and a few tweaks that we implemented on PC starting with Season Two (i.e. double-click to run, holding down the A button to make Sam follow the cursor, tutorial). It also has a concept art gallery that contains some previously unreleased art.

	I would buy it if I was a Wii. I'll make you a deal, you buy me a Wii, I'll buy the game! Or you could make it for the DS.
	Comment by Harley Quinn September 19, 2008, 7:57 am

	If I HAD a Wii, not if I was a Wii. Cos that would be weird.
	Comment by Harley Quinn September 19, 2008, 7:58 am

	Nice pic of S&M and the Wii-controller. Max has been flipped and his hand matches the top of the controller perfectly! Clever!
