Today Telltale announced sales of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People have doubled since Nintendo unveiled its long-awaited Wii storage solution two weeks ago. Telltale did not provide exact sales figures, however.

Strong Bad's game is an episodic point-and-click series downloadable via Nintendo's WiiWare service. The new storage solution allows gamers to play games off of an SD card, rather than from the Wii's limited internal memory. Apparently, gamers are taking advantage of all this new memory space and downloading more games – Strong Bad's Cool Game, particularly.

"Nintendo's new solution really opens the door for players to add to their collection of downloadable games, which is critical for a series with multiple installments," says Telltale CEO Dan Connors. "This is a major step forward for episodic gaming. We're looking forward to even greater success on WiiWare with Strong Bad, as well as other projects."

I for onwe, am greatful for the new SD flash card storage for the wii. i have had to delkete so many games i downloaded off wiiware and the VC, to make room for new ones.

now, i can easily redownload those delted games for free, and save them on the SD flash card for quick loading to the wii.

and, i'm also interested in getting the strong bad games, only wish they'd release a disc version sometime later with all 5 episodes on it.
 
I just wanted to update on this. It works BEAUTIFULLY. i can finally redownload all the VC & WiiWare games i had to delete to make space. I bought a $10 2GB card, and it holds 18,000 blocks. The biggests Wiiware title, world of goo, is 360 blocks. so you do the math. it holds so much more data, now. the average VC game is around 40-60 blocks. so, yeah, plenty of extra space with a $10 card.
