Sliders is a far more suitable show for Telltale to adapt than Quantum Leap, due to the sliders remaining in the same area from episode to episode (no need to create brand new locations but rather to alter previous locations to reflect the universe the team have slid into. Also, to an extent there would be the same secondary characters each episode (e.g. the Mallory family, Conrad Bennish etc.) but again, with differences depending on the universe their in.

Also, for those who don't know; Quantum Leap is supposedly set in the same canon as Sliders (see here for details).
The problem with Sliders is that many characters are trapped in time or dead.

The original Quinn was somehow merged with the alternate Mallory; Colin is trapped forever between dimensions; Wade and Max are dead; and in the finale, Maggie, Diana and Mallory are trapped in a dimension where they are famous, while Remmy goes back to his own dimension alone to defeat the Kromaggs there.

The beauty of Sliders is that there is an infinite amount of alternative dimensions that they could draw from. Who says they'd have to use the Earth Prime characters. Hell, they could just ignore say the last 3 seasons and base it on the original premise and what actually made the show good.

I was going to say much the same. That's the great thing about Sci-Fi; you can always write yourself out of a corner.

...and the really bad writers often have to. All hail Deus Ex Machina.
