And there are a few freeware/abandonware Scumm games, too.

In fact, on the topic of Scumm... is there some sort of open-source Scumm scripting language thing? I'm wondering if, since it uses somewhat high-level stuff, it could be possible to create a Scumm game on an NDS using really painfully basic software...

The ScummVM FAQ answers this question: It would be possible in theory, but in practice it'd be better to use Lua. And now that Lua is being ported to the DS...
