Electronic mail? What is this wonder you speak of? How do you operate the telegramophone whilst wearing gentlemen's sport gloves?

I'm confused. I guess I'm just going to keep checking this topic for that report. Here hoping for some good news... soon!

Has Nintendo told you anything about how far in advance they will tell you (if at all) about the release date? Like, can we already assume it won't come out next Monday since we didn't hear anything today, or could we potentially not hear anything until it is actually out?

Psst... when I say 'we don't have anything to report', it means we don't have anything to tell you about the release date right now

Like we've said all along, when we know something, you'll know something. We like sharing information! Ask anyone!

There is still a chance it will come out the 11th, Telltale promised an advance notice of at least a few days so people can prepare their Wiis and Hard drives for the download or get the money together to buy it.

Well, I know you don't know if it's next Monday specifically, I just used that as an example.

Guess I missed that, all I've been seeing is "you'll know as soon as we know".

Jake said: "If it was coming out today (I believe it was the Aug 4th release speculation), we would have told you last week with a big flashy announcement." Exact words from the old Release Date thread.

i agree with the person says i fight like a cow!

garebage · 08/05/2008, 08:33 am

I'm pulling for the 11th also, but knowing my run of luck I'm thinking it might not

matan · 08/05/2008, 08:41 am

Okay, I have a question. What are the release dates?

(just trying to use this topic for what it's meant. Couldn't think of any other questions about the release dates.)

The difference is that in this thread, the first post you see is an official one from a Telltale employee telling you a fact about when you'll hear when the game will come out, instead of a fan rabidly asking about it.

Hurray! We finally have confirmation.

Question: according to the FAQ, the Wii version is slated at 1000 Wii points, and I notice that PC season bundle is $34.95, the same as the Sam & Max seasons. Will the PC version for single episodes going to be also $8.95?

Bubs' cousin Steve · 08/05/2008, 11:55 am

yeah, on that same note, do the telltale people know how much more it'll cost for the wii vs. the pc?

tabacco · 08/05/2008, 11:56 am

Yes, PC pricing will be exactly the same as with Sam & Max. $34.95 for the season, and $8.95 individually.

The episodes will be 1000 Wii Points apiece on the Wii.

If the season bundle is $35 (rounded up) then the Wii version will be $15 more expensive at 1000 points each.

However, at $9 per episode the Wii Version will only be $5 more expensive

BadStrong · 08/05/2008, 11:58 am

YES!!! Finally, my most anticipated game in about 5 years has a release date, and it's next Monday! I'm stoked. No, I'm ecstatic. Can't wait to wake up next Monday and start playing SBCG4AP!

bigdondoo · 08/05/2008, 11:59 am

*ahem* HOLY CROP! It comes out next monday!

*HoboStew* · 08/05/2008, 12:00 pm

That's right folks! Quit your jobs, drop out of school, call in sick. Do what it takes to keep your monday open.

InfamousDS · 08/05/2008, 12:00 pm

OMG, I just had an idea to prove how we can get the free disc if you guys make one for Wii. We can take pictures of our Wii menu to prove we bought it, just like with the Mii contest. Please make a free disc... I'm begging you.... I have to pay 15 extra dollars because my laptop sucks for reasons I have yet to figure out and the desktop can't go to college with me..

Why aren't the episodes 900 points apiece on the Wii? That would be equal to the computer pricing...

Because Nintendo has to make money on the Wii as well, not just Telltale.
