Broken Sword 1 and 2 are very good games. Not as brilliant as most of the 1990s LucasArts adventures, but still very good. Revolution Software was one of the very few companies that could compete with LucasArts in the adventure genre (and they were the best adventure developer outside USA).

So we have another western PC point & click franchise that's being ported to/remade for the Wii. I would be more excited if it wouldn't take the developers ages for the ports of old PC games. At least Revolution Software brings us a new twist with their remake and Nico as main character (as far as I know).

So as PC ports we already have
Secret Files: Tunguska
Sam & Max: Season One
Safecracker
Two Agatha Christie games

Future releases (besides Broken Sword) will include
Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle
Runaway: A Twist of Fate
Diabolik: The Original Sin
Edna & Harvey: The Breakout
So Blonde
A New Beginning
The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft
Sam & Max: Season Two
Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis

The good thing about the future is that we will see releases of new games which are being developed simultaneously for PC and Wii (often also for DS), such as Runaway: A Twist of Fate and A New Beginning.

Again - like on DS - the first classic, story driven point & click adventure not being ported but originally developed for the system will come from a Japanese developer. And again, it will be Nintendo with Another Code.
