Mint is a good alternative to Ubuntu, but I find the Ubuntu guys are starting to outpace them. Good distro though.
All they ACTUALLY need to do is include the license for the VM in the game's documentation, along with the source code adapting ScummVM to the Wii and whatever additional extensions to it they wrote.
