Default Point and Click: New Monkey Island games coming to WiiWare
Details here. Hurrah for point and click on WiiWare!

All this and a remake of the Secret of Monkey Island for Xbox 360 and PC. Pre-orders via the TellTale site also include all manner of cool stuff too.

Awsome news, but why isn't the remake coming out on the Wii?

I'm excited, but doesn't Telltale Games have like, three or four other adventure franchises they should be attending to? Well I'm sure this will be better than most of those, but they always seem to have so much on their plate.

Tales of Monkey Island in 5 episodes each for 1000 points just like the Strongbad episodes.
Now that's one I definately buy as soon as it comes out.
Best WiiWare news ever.

I think The Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition is too big for a WiiWare game unfortunately. I wish they'd make it a Wii retail release.

They probably will release it on a Wii retail disc if the WiiWare episodes sell well enough.

I'm still sad about no Sam & Max season 2 or 3.

I want all of the old LucasArts adventure games to come to Wii. There is also the Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis that will be hidden on the new Indy Wii game coming later this month. Everyone has to buy that. The classic Indy on ther is alone worth the price of entry.

Damn right. I'd shell out for a retail version of that.

Don't be sad. It's on its way.
