GDC08: Telltale has a mysterious Wii Ware game in the works

When we first heard from Nintendo that Telltale was releasing an episodic game for Wii Ware, we stubbornly believed, Sam & Max! Despite the wording in the press release, in which Nintendo revealed the existence of "a new episodic game series from Telltale," we still held onto hope that we'd get to do some rabbit and dog sleuthing on our Wiis.
Telltale cleared that up pretty quickly, though. The company stated simply, "And before you ask -- no, it's not Sam & Max." Fine, we get the hint.
While the game might not have anything to do with the beloved PC duo, we're sure that Telltale has something really great in store for us. The developer is being coy and keeping tight-lipped about the project, though, which is just making us anticipate it all the more. Hopefully Telltale stops playing hard-to-get soon and tells us what the game is -- unfortunately, patience isn't really a virtue of ours.
[Thanks, Michael!]

Sam and Max? No? Oh. OK. Then what about Sam and Max? No? Max and Sam? Samuel und Maximillian? Ham Sammich and Pepsi Max?
OK. I give up. Is it Sam and Max?
(If the demand is there...)

The German Amazon website lists Sam & Max for a release on 24th of April this year -not too far from now. The price is now set at 39.99€. I can only hope this is factual info.

Well, if it's not Sam & Max, I hope it's at least close to as good as that franchise is. We need good stories and the like for adventure games. Sam & Max does pretty well and I'm glad that TellTale does such a good job with them.

Just because Sam & Mas isn't their WiiWare game doesn't mean they won't release the Season 1 as a retail game.
