Alright, the title's probably a little misleading (I can see it now; "We already have one of these, play SBCG4AP!").

I'd love to see a WiiWare release of Stonkoman 20X6, Trogdor, and Peasant's Quest. They're all pretty close to being full-length games, and they would all work well with the Wii-mote held on its side as a retro controller. The only problems would be of transferring the game to Wii-code and getting it to Nintendo to publish (as far as I know; there would probably be more difficulties than just these). I would definitely buy all 3 of these games if they were available. Yeah, the SBCG4AP Videlectirx games are pretty cool (especially Limozeen's Hot Babelian Odyssey; just feel the retro-space shooter action!), but having the classics on my Wii would just be amazing.

And I understand they already did a little bit of this on the website; but this was all games that could be modified to use the Wii point-and-click-em-up controls, and this couldn't be done easily with these games. I must admit Pop - Tire is a pretty cool Wii game. (Hey, is Trogdor still an available game? It's shown on the picture on the wiki, but it says it was removed in March '07.)

PQ could be a bit painful, what with all the typing... on-screen keyboards are functional, but I wouldn't want to have to use one for a significant period of time...

I never got a chance to try it, but I gather that the Viidelectrix version of Trogdor did use the Wiimote-on-its-side dealie, before it got removed.

That said, I would definitely pay 1000 points to get Stinkoman 20X6 on the Wii... even more, if it had level 10.

Yeah, I did forget to take into account Peasant Quest's typing commands.

Peasant's Quest could work with a USB keyboard, but I don't have one. And I'm assuming/wishfully thinking that Strong Bad's constant complainants about Trogdor not working mean that it is the mini-game for SBCG4AP 5. I already wrote in the SBCG4AP subforum that I would like a Stinkoman WiiWare game.
