Wii

[questionthemajority]

Please tell me that this game will be released on the Wii as well! Or at least WiiWare! Telltale Games are so perfect for the Wii! (or so I assume as StrongBad's Cool Game for Attractive People STILL hasn't been released...)

[Guybrush Threepwood]

Telltale's games are even better for the PC, mind you. I'm going to go right out and say that this game won't be released for WiiWare. I just can't see it being able to fit in the 40MB (or whatever it is) limit. SBCG4AP can due to the simplistic graphical style, but this is different.
Don't take my word for it, though.

[Emily]

We're still deciding on platforms. Ultimately, we want to have our games on all of the consoles. :)

When we have news about platforms for Wallace & Gromit, we'll let you guys know!

[Kedri]

Tabacco stole my joke. :/

Anyway, I'm guessing there's a 95% chance that Telltale will release it on the Wii, so have hope! :D

Guybrush and Tabacco, don't have as much hope.

[Awesome5]

If it's too big for WiiWare, then how about selling it at stores like Sam&Max Wii?

They probably will, but that won't be until the Season is well over.

Hey, that was a fun system!

[Wiidiot]

I really hope that it will be released for Wii. Is there really a 40 MB limit on WiiWare???

[Zootch]

It will probably be out on PC first. How many floppy drives will each episode be on?

[Rather Dashing]

Peasant's Quest was 12, so.....this game is going to have to be like....50.

[TomSuperman]

Xbox 360 has a new 200 MB limit. Maybe they should release Sam and Max and SBCG4AP in xbox and playstation network.

[cjayp33]

many websites are speculating that it will come to wii or wiiware because of sam and max and strongs bands... are coming to those platforms

please say it is coming to wiiware that would be awsome.

i hope it does not come to wii, as that means i will have to wait until the season finishes until the games comes out, which means i will have to buy it on pc.

release it on wiiware, and you will for me make this announcement even better,

[Rather Dashing]

Have you tried playing a demo of Sam and Max on your computer? The system requirements for Telltale's games are very low, and I've found that many people ho though their computers couldn't play games can play Sam and Max.

I highly doubt that Wallace and Grommit will get onto Wiiware. A lot of what makes Strong Bad fit on Wiiware is the low polygon count of the graphics style. At least, I think it is, I'm not a computer magician so I can only go off quotes. The Telltale guys said there were a lot of tricks to it, so I can't be QUITE sure.

Wallace and Gromit Heading to Wiiware (http://play.tm/wire/cluster/2033619) Found that link while looking for something completely irrelevant. Also this page (http://play.tm/wire/click/2033619) claims that it's going to be available on PC first...

Did I miss any announcements from Telltale, or is this just more published speculation?

[ig0rpwnwEd]

But if the secret Wii game isn't Wallace and Gromit, what is it?!?!?

That's not really fair. As far as I can tell, it's not the same people asking the same question- it's the same question being asked by many many people who didn't see any of the other 50 times it's been answered.

[Rather Dashing]

I dunno, I think it's at least a LITTLE fair when the question was answered further up on the same page. =p

Besides, I liked the analogy.

Published speculation.

[Shmeh]

It's not their attention-span that's the problem. It's their laziness at not reading posts to try to find an answer before asking a commonly asked question. If they aren't going to read all the posts people have made on the forum before asking a question, they should at least use the search tool at the top of the page.

Psh, even I rarely use the search tool.

But I *do* read all the posts on the page on which I'm posting the question, especially the Telltale Team posts. It's when a question is asked three or four posts down from the answer provided by a Telltale employee, that's when I start to get bugged.

I can get not knowing a question has been asked, I can get not browsing through the forums for the answer, and I can get not using the search tool. But I would expect a person to read the page they're posting on. =p

Don't take my word for it, though.They are if you have a good computer. However, I'm not the type of person who keeps my computer very updated, so I'm more satisfied buying games for my consoles knowing that they've been programmed for the specifications of that particular system. That and I prefer to sit back on my couch and play a game in comfort rather than on my uncomfortable desk chair. I spend enough time on that working every day as it is!

Hey cut me some slack, I saw the post but a lot can happen when it was made a few days ago and I haven't been here. :p

[DS_Kid]

It would be neat if the episodes were released on the Wii, but if it happens, I think that it would be sold as a single disc containing the entire season.

[someguyfromazoo]

ALL Consoles?*grits teeth, eye twitches*JAGUAR!JAGUAR!JAGUAR!

If you all can find a way to make it run on the Magnavox Odyssey, I'll be your slave for the remainder of my life. Heck, if you can take it back another step and figure out how to make it run on the Tennis for Two hardware, I'll kiss your feet.


I guess that I have now oversaturated the joke.

I laughed because lag was not included in this equation.

...eh? :confused: What has lag got to do with anything?

[someguyfromazoo]

I laughed because lag was not included in this equation.

Video Game math...Have you happened to play Super Paper Mario?

[TrogLlama]

Video Game math...Have you happened to play Super Paper Mario?
I have, but... I fail to see how it relates to anything.
But, I do see your point about lag. I've had some ridiculous load times, let me tell you...

[someguyfromazoo]

I have, but... I fail to see how it relates to anything.


In the first level, where you get the 2d-3d power, did you notice the strange math problems in the background?Mushroom divided by the square root of Star Man?

Well, yes, but...

[someguyfromazoo]

Basically, when I see the word equation, I think about math.When I see the word lag, I think 'video game'.Thinking about both, I think of crappy educational games or the first level of SPM's background.

I had one of those Donkey Kong games when I was a kid. A friend of my parents' brought it back for me from a trip to Japan. I wish I'd kept it, that thing was cool.

When do you guys expect to have some more info (not just platforms)? Will it be once SBCG4AP has ended or around that time?

Pretty cool that you had an actual Game & Watch! Donkey Kong was a fun game, love dropping Mario on his head.

Hope to learn more about the W & G series soon.

Um that was completely pointless and my brain throw up.
Seriously what does Homsar have to do with Wallace & Gromit (even if he is awesome).

[bobmarleypeople]

LOL sorry I got carried away. The possibility that the Wallace and Gromit game could be on the Game and Watch made me explode.

Or rather, I made all up to the AAAAAAA then I realised it sounded like Homsar. So I felt it appropriate to post him.

[Yellowtail]

The telltale tool works for wii, so IMO it'd be silly for it not to be released on wii in some form, especially as it's such a well known brand as wallace and gromit.

[TrogLlama]

Not necessarily. Just because the Tool works for Wii doesn't mean that all TT games can/should come out on it. You have to consider the market for it, as well as the Wii's graphical power (although I doubt the game would be something that the Wii couldn't handle, just going off of Telltale's standard); there are more factors that go into that kind of decision than you'd think.

[bobmarleypeople]

Well, after thinking about it, I've come to an UNOFFICIAL conclusion.

Since W&G are a much bigger franchise in the UK than anywhere else, I reckon that the W&G games will appear on Wii eventually (either in WiiWare form or disc form after the series has finished on PC. I say this because the majority of people (myself included) prefer to buy directly in GBP as opposed to USD (especially since banks and/or Paypal like charging for converting between currencies). Also, the downloadable PC game market hasn't fully took off in the UK yet, so releasing in stores would be good. Also, the Wii is selling more than the PS3 and the 360 COMBINED (I think) in the UK, so TT will want in on that market. Oh and since the USD is failing at the moment, selling the series at £35 will earn double the profit that downloadable PC games do (not taking into account Nintendo fees and stuff).

That's just my one penny (according to recent exchange rates :p )

[natlinxz]

Wallace and Grommit for Mac anyone?:confused:

Hrm, I think DLC on home consoles had been desirable for a while and Infinium tried to beat everyone to the punch. They crashed and burned spectacularly in the process, but that's what happens when the people running a publicly held company are liars and criminals.
