As someone who has the worst PC on the planet (seriously, it barely runs Notepad), I was more than excited about the news that Sam & Max – Season 1 would be coming to the Wii. As everyone was enjoying Sam & Max’s newest adventures on their fancy post-1996 computers, I had to sit alone in a dark room with only the amazing memories of Hit the Road to keep me company.
Well, it looks like I will only have to live in the shadow of my loneliness for a few more months! According to the DreamCatcher Games product page, it looks like Sam & Max – Season 1 will be coming to the Wii in August of this year. In addition to this new release date information, there also seems to be some official box art! Look, it’s Sam and Max!
What do you think? Are you planning on giving the Wii version of this game a try? What do you think of the simple, yet effective box art?

...it's just not funny or entertaining at all. IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME PLEASE HELP!!! I got it for my birthday in January and I just can't do it. Maybe it's just not meant to be, or maybe cause I think the detective genre smells like farts, even if the detective is a doggy.

I tried out the episode that was free, and it was pretty funny, but it was also impossibly obtuse. I couldn't figure out how to get into the white house, or figure out if I was supposed to just collect items and go away, so I sort of gave up on the game.
Might make more sense if I start from the beginning and get into the rhythm of it, and August is a dead time of year for games.
I'm totally pre-ordering this biznatch.
Sam & Max is some old school awesome adventureness.
I always thought the Wiimote would work well for adventure games. There was an article on it at slashdot around the time the Wii was launched but i thought it was never going to happen. glad it did.
My computer is worse than yours.
....oh wait, no I'm not. Come September I won't have a Wii anymore. Damn College....
In fact, they might even still have their "first month 99 cents" thing going on so hey, Sam & Max for a buck. I bought a year subscription for $60 and I regret NOTHING!
:D
Y'know, you CAN play the original Sam & Max on the Wii with a wiimote, thanks to ScummVM
