Some fresh news of interest from the GDC:

Telltale Games, developers of the recent Sam and Max downloadable games (I believe primarily available via Gametap), have long been rumored to be working on a Wii title.

The Wii is a great vehicle for adventure games, Telltale's speciality. Like the DS, I foresee a mild resugence in the form, even though the first real attempt, the sublime Zak and Wiki, was a commercial dud.

When Telltale further clarified that their game is going to be a Wii Ware title, even more of us speculated that Sam and Max were coming to Wii. But no! Apparently, Telltale is working on a band new property for Wii.

Whatever they make, I'll be looking for their game with keen interest. Telltale is made up of ex-LucasArts folks, some of the people that made that string of excellent adventure titles like Day of the Tentacle and The Dig.
