Play Monkey Island on your Nintendo DS
5th Sep 2005, 17:24 GMT
Leave to the mod community to make something you never thought of in the first place, but now you wouldn’t want to live without. The newest addition to the unofficial Nintendo DS library is a SCUMM library. For those in the dark, SCUMM was the engine that ran all of LucasArts’ adventure games, back when they made games without Star Wars in the title. That includes Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, and most of the Monkey Island games - all games that, whether or not you love high-quality adventure games, are extremely funny. And the best part is that this emulator utilizes the DS’s touch screen as a pseudo-mouse for clicking on the option. I love this, and I kind of wish we would see more adventure games on the Nintendo DS. Are you listening, LucasArts? Please give us rehashed games on a new system so that I might buy them and you can reap the benefits of almost pure profit.
