"If this sells, there's no one at this company who doesn't want to do these games" says Lucasarts' Brooks Brown. "It's a matter of showing that there's interest and this market is alive and get people as excited as possible about Monkey Island Special Edition to show that these things can make it".

Not trying to get anyone's hopes down (hell, I'd buy remakes of Full Throttle and The Dig in a heartbeat), but to me this is just a way of saying "we will never do more remakes, if Monkey Island Special Edition does not launch surprisingly with more than 50000 copies sold its first week", and I would not hold my breath for that happening.
Of course I'll be happy as a three-headed monkey if things turn out for the better, but that's just my take on it for now.
(Also keep in mind that Brooks is "only" the Community Manager, not a decision-maker at Lucasarts.)
