LucasArts has a new Indiana Jones action game coming out for the Wii: Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. That's not real big news, in-and-of itself. What is interesting is that apparently the classic SCUMM game Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis will be included as an unlockable bonus feature.
Hmmmmm.
So, LucasArts now has a SCUMM interpreter that natively runs on Wii hardware. (There's no word, as yet, as to whether ScummVM's code got used for any of this.) That seems like an awful lot of work for a single bonus feature.
On the other hand, as proof of concept piece as a prelude to releasing their old SCUMM games on the Wii's Virtual Console, that DOES seem worth the effort...
