I would love to see the sales numbers for these games. I realize they probably don't cost much to make, but who buys these games? I would assume young children, but I doubt they will ever get shelf space in major retail chains.

Here is the IGN page for Spy Fox

The other two games don't have profiles on IGN or 1UP. Has anyone ever heard of them before?

never heard of them,and I get nintendo power magazines,so they must be really lame lol

Haha. Never heard of all three. And I get Nintendo Power.

Maybe they're wiiware games?

I know Helix is releasing on WiiWare this week.

Are these all by the same developer? Because judging by the titles that is what it looks like.

they are... it looks like someone is testing the waters with point an click adventures meant for a younger audience.... these are ancient (and I thought buried) franchises from the PC.

Yeah, it's pretty scary seeing them move over to the Wii. You know those nameless $5 games you see hanging around in the PC section of a Walmart or something? That's what these games are.

I remember when they were $30.... course I remember looking for Virtual On back then. Loved that game until I played it in arcades.... but THAT is the game that should come back like that on the Wii if any!

I actually have heard of them. Pretty hilaroius titles.

Wow. I played those when I was like...8. Almost a decade ago. I hope they're not going to charge $50 for them...although, come to think of it, the Wiimote might be a neat interface for those young enough to still enjoy the games.

kinda makes me a little hopefull for a revival of Sam & Max Hit the Road and Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle.

Woah! I remember Spy Fox, Pajama Sam, and Freddi fish! Those games were awesome. Atleast that's what I thought when I was little. I haven't played any of those in forever.

What about Ultimate Duck Hunting, and Build-A-Bear Workshop: A Friend Fur All Seasons?

You gotta love the ridiculousness... :lol:

beening that I've never heard of these games, I really want to play the Pajama Sam one. Oh the Gods will smile on us when we can once more play Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle! That was one of my very first PC Games. Such goodness. Diortem- thanks for making me feel all fuzzy inside.

Really? I thought they were brand new games...

Heh, Ploogl I noticed you included some of my mispellings of your name!
Aww Pooglen, when will you learn?
By the way, I played Nintendogs the other day and I thought, "Is Pugul's name based on the dog breed 'poodle'?
Heh, pretty clever Plooger!

Ill be honest, I want Sam & Max alot more. Both rocked, but I DID finish DOTT back in the day.

HA yes yes yes. See I was a fan of the Sam and Max cartoon when I was little. I've been telling myself to go and get all the episodes on GameTap or Steam. Can not wait for the Good Old Games- Beta. But here I am posting. I never got to completely finish DOTT. It would crash alot on my Macintosh....yep that's WAY BACK. Just thinking of that makes my so happy that I don't own a Apple Comp any more. THANKS MOM! Does anyone know where these games came from? Are they someones' crazy idea or even a cartoon? They sound like they would be....hummmm?

Haha, I remember Spy Fox. Good old days.

those are computer games for little kids, it is supposed to help them with problem solving... like the light bulb goes in the lamp... or you need to oil a mining cart before you can ride it like a roller coaster.

Grab the episodes... I bought them all (both seasons) from Telltale directly.... they are AMAZING

Never heard of em...

Never heard of them. I bet they are a next-gen game. Lol.

OMG i think i have those games on PC from wheni was like 5.

well, if little kids want somthing to plan, those are the games

Years ago when I was a little kid I played Freddi Fish in Kelp Seed Mystery... I think I still have the disk buried in the back of a pile of old PC games. Never did throw away a computer game.

Those are all games that I have for pc.... they were for my first ever computer..
Trust me, only a 3 year old would like something like those, all you do is point, click, and drag
:undecided: :undecided: :undecided: :undecided:

Just makes me think what the makers of these games are on?
