Back to the Future: The Game is coming to Wii in Ireland

TellTale did an unforgivably shit job of Sam and Max: Beyond Time and Space for the Wii. The parts at the end of the game came to a complete halt and only moved if you found a way for there to somehow have less stuff happening on screen. This isn't a fault of the Wii, it's the fault of the people behind its development and I have not forgiven them for that. It could've been worse if they actually promoted the Wii version of the game at all. I did not find it easy to obtain it.

Now they're bringing a compilation of their Back to the Future series to the Wii and I am feeling glad, yet wary. Are they going to fuck this up as badly as Sam and Max 2?

I had a look at the first issue of the new Nintendo Gamer magazine and they reviewed the American version of Back to the Future. The score was a low 50 and the contents made reference to the aforementioned Sam and Max sequel. They said Back to the Future has the same problems as Sam and Max 2 but that it isn't as decrepit as the latter — Whatever that means.

Is the game going to come to a complete halt during gameplay like Sam and Max 2 did due to crap development? I don't want that to happen. What I'm going to do now is stay tuned for a few more reviews of the Wii version and also have a look at how they'll promote it (if at all).
