We, like most of you, we'd imagine, have been a little slack in our Homestar Runner patronage in recent years. But we've been visiting lately to get prepped for the game and trust us, it still holds up enough to have us plenty excited for the game. Will you be picking it up? (Update: Our friends at Nintendo Wii Fanboy have a review of the game, calling it a "quite fun and an excellent piece of fan service.")

Rats. The one time that something I want comes out for Wii Ware/VC, and I don't have enough points to buy it.

I just checked and it's still not up. I think it updates at noon eastern time so wait another hour and a half I guess.

The fact that just the trailer made me literally laugh out loud, and the fact that the trailer only shows a miniscule amount of the gameplay, really makes me excited to download it later today. :)

I was just telling my partner yesterday that they need to make a Teen Girl Squad/SSX crossover game, because snowboarding + teen girl squad would be awesome.

I'm as big a fan of Homestarrunner as anybody else, but does this game actually look like fun to people based on that video? It looks like it's basically a scripted hunt-and-seek with random character speeches inserted for comedic effect.
Curious to see the reviews on this game.

Didn't make me laugh or even smile once. I guess it's about 5 years too late for me.
...that and I'll hold up for Tim Schafer's next project to get my humor/adventure fix.

I agree with you, this game isn't funny at all. Example of a joke that it would have would be like, " Finding the key in this level is like finding a needle in a haystack. (camera pans to a haystack) ...No, I found the needle in that one already." Its humor is obviously for a very specific group of people. At least the graphics look nice and colorful.

Add Strong Bad to the rather large list of shticks that have run their course.
