Sam & Max is coming to the Wii and Telltale Games isn’t using WiiWare for the transition. The six episodes that make up Sam & Max Season One will be repackaged on a disc and distributed by Dreamcatcher this fall.

I’m partial to the emergence of medical drama games on the DS and Wii. I remember Life and Death for the PC (released over a decade ago!), but it was not nearly as immersive or challenging as Trauma Center: Under the Knife. Instead of facing foreign viral invaders, Spike’s Tendo Dokuta series is more on [...]

More DS medical sims? Two Tendo Dokuta games US bound?

By Spencer . March 20, 2007 . 6:44am

Another interesting piece of information surfaced on GameFly, listings for Lifesigns: Hospital Affairs and Lifesigns: Surgical Unit. G-Stars announced that they picked up the rights to Spike’s medical drama series last year, but no US release information has been found until now.
