Sam and Max hit the road towards Wii
After a full year of speculation, and repeated half-denials, Telltale Games has finally confirmed that its formerly PC-exclusive game, Sam and Max: Season 1, will be hitting Nintendo’s Wii sometime this fall. While the game will not have the luxury of being the first point-and-click adventure-style game available, that honor is reserved for that Agatha Christie game, it will most certainly be the best one available.
The game, which is now on its “Second Season,” is an episodic point-and-click adventure series following the exploits of the titular Sam and Max. The episodes are eventually collected into volumes at the end of each season and are available for download through Telltale’s website and Turner’s GameTap service. The Wii version will mark the first console release for the game.
A price or specific release date were not given. However, the developer is expected to reveal more about their upcoming WiiWare title next week, so these questions could potentially get answered sooner than later.
