5 1980's Movies that Should Be Video Games for Wii, Xbox, and PS3

Amanda  Gochros
With the newly released Ghostbusters for Nintendo Wii, I began thinking about some other 1980's movies that would be fun and hilariously entertaining in updated graphics and 3d. These could be amazing to play on Wii, Xbox and PS3 with how far Technology and video games have come
Here are 5 of my choices.

5."The Goonies". No not the really bad NES Goonies II, which for some reason was labeled II even though they never released the first game in the U.S, Japan gets everything. Anyways, my idea: somewhat sandbox style adventure game, with levels and tasks. The story would be similair to the movie, and we can be multiple characters. A must: the intro song by Cyndi Lauper would be added to the background music, and we must be able to play as chunk or sloth.

4."Back to the Future"- I Know there have been some crummy video games made already , but we need some " butthead" to take all three movies and come out with a gnarly adventure game with fantastic graphics, and original cast member voices, YEA LLOYD AND FOX.

3. "The Wizard"- Omg a video game about video games, inconceivable! Pretty much trying to escape their parents, and encountering King kong would be major motifs. Not to mention Fred Savage! They would have to include super mario 3 as well as double dragon, for obvious reasons. How cool would that be to play those games on different platforms.

2. The Breakfast Club- I'd say take the plot as well as add some twists. Make it sort of like bully with a set-up in a school, but make it multi-character and multi-mission. One level could be roaming the hallways, while the next is putting lipstick on with your chest. How fun!!!

1. "The Princess Bride". I heard that a you could only download a game like this , thats lame. The need to make this a hardcore video game because it's got far too much adventures and puzzles to be shelved away. "You killed my father prepare to die". There seriously is no reason to not make this movie into a video game. It has hilarious Mel brooks comedy, a amazing protagonist, a barrel of fun minor characters, and various settings. Not to mention romance.

Other 80's Movies that could join in on the recent trend of updating and glorify video games: "Adventures in Babysitting" , " Pee-wee's Big, Adventure"," Ferris Bueller's Day Off", "Karate Kid", "E.T."( yes E.T. sand Karate Kid have been made for older platforms, but come on those atari games could be redone )
