Majesco"s Humongous offerings will include Freddi Fish in Kelp Seed Mystery, Pajama Sam in Don"t Fear the Dark and SPY Fox in Dry Cereal. The titles were originally released for PC in the 1990s.The Wii"s point-and-click functionality is a seemingly perfect fit for the games, which rely on a cursor to navigate menus and select on-screen objects.
Kid-friendly developer Humongous Entertainment was originally formed in 1992 by Shelley Day and renowned game designer Ron Gilbert, who is currently creative director at Vancouver"s Hothead Games.
The new Majesco-published titles will be produced by Interactive Game Group under license from Humongous. The games will retail for mmoabc9.99, in line with Majesco"s switch in strategy from large-scale premium games to more budget-priced casual titles.
Majesco CEO Jesse Sutton said in a statement, "[Humongous"] characters have demonstrated both tremendous staying power and widespread consumer appeal, and we think this kind of family-friendly content is well-suited to the Wii system."
The titles will be published by Atari in Europe and will be available in mid-2008.
