SymbOS MSX multitasking operating system - help needed!

SCUMMVM ported to MSX would be awesome. Somehow I always felt that should be a turboR/Moonsound/GFX9000 thing though. Still, seeing that footage in SymbOS is euhm... legendary.

I never said scummvm, just something a little similar on a game by game basis However I dont see why a Moonsound/GFX9000/Turbo-r version isnt possible ultimately.

I don't think you really need a Moonsound/GFX9000 for scummvm.... there's not happening that much. Perhaps for the animations...? ah well, it's off topic

Well, maybe Monkey Island is a bit out of MSX specs (at least without a lot of work); but the firsts SCUMM titles, "Maniac Mansion" or "Zak McKracken..." were available on C64; so they're simply doable.
Even porting the humble Infocom's Z-machine to SymbOS would be a great achievement. There're tons of Infocom adventures out there

I'd also consider the whole size of the game.
Probably Monkey Island would result in a HD only game (or SD or CF only), where you need to load data at each scene change (or at each action performed on the screen).
Would it be worth ?

Add that if instead of a remake from scratch, one wants to port the scumm engine, here there is a open source project
http://scummvm.org/
It is 18Mb of compressed c++ sources...
