As you might have noticed, the first episode of
Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People, "Homestar Ruiner," did not make its
target month of July. Maybe he was too busy pining for Trevor or [insert more recent Strong Bad reference here], who knows? Thankfully, the wait has nearly ended: Telltale has announced on its site that the first episode will arrive on WiiWare and PC Aug. 11.
We're happy to finally see SB make the leap to the somewhat larger, yet still small screen. But we're more hopeful that the announcement means Telltale can now move on the to the episodic
Teen Girl Squad game we all secretly crave.

I thought it had arrived, but nobody cared.
'tis good that it's finally making it, between that and Mega Man 9, WiiWare will soon have some good games that aren't LostWinds. >_>

And the forthcoming Bomberman Blast
8-Player Online, cross-compatible with their upcoming disc-based Wii game

The problem now becomes this: the game is $10 per episode on WiiWare, coming to $50 even, but you can get all 5 episodes on the PC for $35 when you preorder the whole season, making it $7 an episode.
So... Do I go with the cheaper option, or do I go with the option that makes me break my Wii out again? Decisions, decisions...

I noticed the same thing. Apparently the Wii version has a couple exclusive features, but still, 15 bucks cheaper is making me lean towards the PC version.

Thanks for pointing that out, I somehow missed that a PC version even existed, and it's cheaper! Saved me a few bucks.

Finally, a reason to spend those Wii Points I've been hoarding since forever!

The Teen Girl Squad game we SECRETLY crave? Speak for yourself. I wear my craving like a hella tight elephant mask.

I would be cautiously optimistic that this game will release on Monday. Remember a few days ago when other publishers "confirmed" their games were releasing this Monday? Where's Mega Man 1? Where's Ys?
Nintendo might hold it back for whatever reason.

I took time out from playing Samurai Shodown II on VC to post this.
...seriously, I doubt it'll be out this coming Monday, but I'll gladly grab it as soon as it is released. Same with Sam and Max.

Well I'm not going to get excited yet. Nintendo might pull a fast one on us again.
KeegdnaB @ Aug 6th 2008 3:59PM
Arghhh.....I'll be on a plane to Florida Monday
Maybe I'll be lucky and Delta will have that new Wifi on my fight, I can bring my Wii through security.....right?

I think the delay was half-Nintendo, half-making sure they were far enough in development to ensure that they could push out the five episodes on a monthly basis (because delay before series starts >>> delays after the second episode comes out).
