The
Runaway series of adventure games recently made its first steps onto consoles via a
DS port of
Runaway 2: The Dream of the Turtle, which actually isn't out yet, and a planned Wii port as well. As revealed at GDC, developer Pendulo Studios is going one step further for the next installment, called
Runaway: A Twist of Fate. From the outset, this latest game is planned as a PC/Wii/DS release.
There are no details or real screens (for any platform) from the new game yet, but based on the latest concept art, it's all dark and gritty and stuff. Quite a contrast from the beach-party look of
Runaway 2. The most important thing is that it's
an adventure game on the Wii.[Via

I have no knowledge regarding past games about this series, however any adventure game (third party) is a pretty much welcomed addition for me!
If this eventually comes to the Wii, and Sam & Max creators bring their own into play, the future is bright for adventure games on the Wii! :)

This is great news! I played the original Runaway and really enjoyed it. The art style reminded me of the old cartoon graphics from the early 90s and the gameplay wasn't bad either. I have yet to play the sequel, but I will definitely play it now, seeing that the series is coming to Wii for its next installment. With Zack and Wiki, Secret Files: Tunguska, Agatha Christie: ATTWN, Runaway 3, a new series from Telltale (creator of the new Sam and Max games), and possibly other adventure games coming to the Wii, the future is looking bright!

It'd be nice if we could get the FIRST game as well. -_-

It's a runaway success.
