Sam & Max for Wii will be published in the US by Dreamcatcher and The Adventure Company. In Europe, JoWood will handle publishing duties of the game, which will have French and German voice acting, with Italian and Spanish subtitles added. No word yet on price for the title, but if it does end up being budget priced (PC was $30), we're very curious to see if this excellent adventure game finds an audience on the Wii.
[Thanks Sam]

Why are there people who like Sam & Max? Whats there to like about it? I'm just asking cause I've never played or watched...or know anything about them.

Basically, the Sam & Max games are really funny. The puzzle gameplay is very traditional adventure-game stuff, which you'll either like or not (hint: you're usually trying to find the right items or ask the right questions to get to the next stage of the puzzle).
I played the original adventure game on DOS back in like '94 and loved it, though, so maybe I'm a little biased.

If you think Invader Zim is funny, then you'll probably love Sam & Max (which, in my opinion, is MUCH funnier.)

sigh i wanted to say fail. but then i would be just another dick. You should download sam and max if you can or wait until these come out. Great stuff, i promise.

Sounds cool. I might give it a try.

The Wii is perfect for adventure games, just like the DS. I'll definitely play this.

It had better sell well!
Maybe if it does we might see some classic lucasarts adventure games released on the Wii (or the DS, or both!).
Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, Full throttle, etc.. would all rock on both platforms.

Except that LucasArts don't own the rights to the Sam & Max franchise now (except for Hit The Road) so really there's probably no chance whatsoever.

I didn't mention Sam n Max Hit the Road. ;-)

Best news I've heard today. I may weep openly.

Hide Sam and Max Hit The Road on the disc as a bonus, please. I'm so picking this up.

I've been off and on thinking about buying this game, but I guess I'll wait for the Wii version.
WhatIsThatThing @ Apr 4th 2008 3:26PM
I knew there was a good reason for holding off on buying this on the PC!
Mr Khan @ Apr 4th 2008 6:02PM
huh, it comes right at the time when i'm about to splurge on a laptop that can actually play PC games
Drago Dracini @ Apr 6th 2008 12:23PM
oh lord I can't wait. @.@ If this turns out to be as great as the PC version I'll be very happy.
