We’ve been waiting patiently (alright, I’ve been begging their PR) for details on their upcoming WiiWare game. Luckily, we need to wait no longer! Telltale has just revealed their new episodic series, Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People!
The first episode of SBCG4AP will hit the Wii Shop channel in June (with a PC release somewhere around that time as well), with subsequent episodes following each month. Details are few and far between, but the games will feature “easy-to-use” controls and WiiConnect24 features. Fans of the cartoons will have a lot to look forward to. In addition to their usual adventure gaming goodness, Telltale plans to include bonuses like Strong Bad e-mails and minigames based on the ones on the Homestar Runner website.
A trailer and screenshots will hit the web in a few hours, so check back for updates.
[Update] Bunch of media has been released!
neat

Thank goodness this news didn’t show up on April Fools Day, because I never would have believed it. I can’t wait!

Ok now I KNOW I live in the Matrix. This CAN’T be the real world.
Still, the thought crossed my mind that this was Telltale’s WiiWare game, but then I told myself not to be so silly.

Hehehe. Sweet. That Wiiware service is really doing something in the US.

I love Telltale and I love Strongbad, this is almost too good to be true, with this, S&M, Tetris online (it’s my most played game on the DS), Dr. Mario and Mario Kart (another online DS time waster) my Wii is going to catch fire…

Whoa, this isa pretty niiice.
Fantastic…I can’t wait for this. I love Strong Bad, Homestar, and the rest of the crew. I just hope Homsar shows up in an easter egg.

I’m not a very big fan at all of the new Sam and Max games, but it looks like this one is going to be good. I get the feeling that the writing and stuff will mostly be from the Chapman bros which is an awesome sign.
