Forums - Nintendo - Strongbad's game is NOT coming out this month after all.

"Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the game is not coming out tomorrow.

What IGN said is true - we have submitted the game to Nintendo, and as soon as we get approval from them, it will be released quickly after that. We really are in the home stretch. We've been waiting to announce a release date until we have that approval, though, because until that happens, well, anything can happen! Getting games into WiiWare is a new process for us and we're learning as we go, so I'm sorry if any of you are disappointed that tomorrow is the last Monday in July and you won't have a Strong Bad game to play. On the plus side, we're closer now than we've ever been, and very soon we should be able to tell you exactly when it's coming out!

Also, I'd like to preemptively say that contrary to some comments I've seen people making here and there, Nintendo has NOT been sitting on the game for months. We were still working on getting some bugs fixed until fairly recently. So please don't assume that they're some evil empire that's been hoarding the game since June because they don't want you to have it. Everyone we're working with at Nintendo wants the game to come out just as badly as we (and you!) do."

Sorry blokes. It seems we'll have to wait a bit more to get our Adventure game fix on the Wii. Now I have to wonder which will be first to market: Strongbad episode 1, or Sam and Max season 1.

My disappointment is tempered by the fact that I am perpetually behind on games so any breathing room I can wrangle via a well-timed delay is welcome.




Oh well....

 Bad news is a game sucks; a game being late is a mild inconvience.

 

If you look at the game companys that are almost universally held in high regard, you will notice that all of them are very willing to delay games for as long as it takes to get games right. Five years later nobody remembers that a classic game came out six months late, and nobody cares that a bug ridden game came out on time.



If this baby and Sam & Max come out in the same month, I might just have a point & click joygasm.

August is going to be a good month for the Adventure game afficianado, yes. Although since Strongbad is supposed to be monthly, we were already supposed to get both in the same month: it would just be Strongbad episode 2 rather than episode 1. I wonder if they're still on schedule to release monthly now?

Edit: But we got Beer Pong Pong Toss today instead, which is totally an equal tradeoff.

 



maybe they will take the delay time to add more stuff till nintendo says it's time, if thats possible.



come try out the computer game i've been working on for my high school senior project, titled sling ball. http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=47568
