Do You at Telltale have a Wii in the office? Cuz I just thought of a way you make tons of friends on it.......

Okay, since we the Wii don't get a disc I have been brainstorming ideas for us to prove that we bought all five games. And I have that way now. Wii Message Board (or e-mail). Just like the Wii Itself, any message sent from the board or from in-games is 100% unique to that console. All we have to do is use the secret costumes pieces we have found in each episode (since they don't go over), take a pic, and send it. And since they are the secret ones, it will be harder to just build 5 generic outfits and we will have to actually work to prove we bought the game. The e-mail address will be our specific number, or it will go into the office Wii. All that you need is someone to check the message board or a special e-mail on a like hourly basis to add the Wiis to contact lists so we can e-mail you.

Free Disc Now Please!

And for the curious, someguyfromazoo thinks it would be easier to just make a WiiDisc instead of my Idea.

Do you realise how much pointless effort that would require on Telltale's part?

nathew

do you also realize how piracy makes this idea even less tangible?

You know what would be easier?

Each game comes with a code... somewhere... you put the code in your My Telltale account... TAH DAH.

Easy as that.

Until somebody takes a screenshot of the code and posts it on the internoobs.

Or, you'll get the "Aardwolf Syndrome". (Named for Wolfenstein 3D. In one level, there was a secret message that gave a phone number and the message "Call Apogee and say Aardwolf." People still call it to this day, many years after the contest ended.)

Maybe make the code only work once? (It wound make a diffrent code for each person)
