console games?

I'm still new when it comes to Monkey island, and I wanted to know if any games from the series are on consoles. I can't/wont get them for PC, steam etc... I know MI special edition is out for xbox, tales is on wiiware, and curse is on PS2. Does anybody know if Lechuck's revenge, and escape of are on a game console?
I own a Gamecube, Wii, 360, PS2, and DSI. thanks.

    Curse isn't on PS2, Escape is. That's it though (aside from the special edition).

    Well, there's also MI1 on Sega CD.

    LeChuck's Revenge and Curse are a purely PC affair. Any modern computer should be able to play them with ScummVM, though.

    Monkey Island 1 - Sega CD and FM Towns (the FM Towns Marty can be considered a console)
    Monkey Island 2 - FM Towns
    Monkey Island 3 - PC only
    Monkey Island 4 - PS2

    Both MI1&2 are also available for the Amiga, but that's not a console (even if people often mislabel it as such).

    Yes, you can play MI 1, 2 and 3 on consoles.... but not officially and not without some knowledge and hassle. If you are not very technical minded you can stop reading right here.

    You need a cracked Wii, a cracked Xbox or a PS3 classic and the games themselves (the old PC versions will do fine).
    Your aim is to install ScummVM on the console and play the games that way.

    Wii - Check the ScummVM forums, there is a subforum about Wii stuff.
    Xbox - ScummVM doesn't host a XBox subforum (for legal reasons, I guess), but an Xbox version of it is out there...somewhere...
    PS3 - Install Linux on it and then compile your own ScummVM on it.

    You can play MI 1&2 on Nintendo DS too, but you'll need a flashcard to put ScummVM in..
    MI 1&2 looks wonderful on DS!

    AFAIK ScummVM also works on PSP, and IIRC you can play the three first Monkey Island in there.
