A while back, we were very skeptical if Sam and Max were to appear on the Nintendo Wii. But our prayers might have been answered by Tellgames Games after their grassroot campaign to get the game on the system.
Apparently their website is trying to hire a Wii Systems Programmer. With many mentions of the Wii console, and a ‘Love for adventure games’ appearing in the advert, it would definatly seem that we might be seeing Sam and Max sometime in the future.
