It seems that no 80’s license is safe, kiddies. Variety reports that Vivendi Games and Sony Pictures have made a deal to continue the popular Ghostbusters franchise on home gaming consoles. Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, and Ernie Hudson have all jumped aboard to lend their likenesses and voices to the game. Additionally, Aykroyd and Ramis are developing a plot and script, which will take place sometime after the events of Ghostbusters 2.

Sadly, Wii and DS gamers may get the shaft in this deal, as the "hardcore demographic" is being targeted for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC versions of the game, while Vivendi itself isn't even developing the Wii and DS games. Instead, rookie developer Red Fly Studio is. Along with the PS2 version, the Wii and DS games promise to be more "family friendly" than the 360, PS3, and PC offerings. It is not clear whether the Aykroyd/Ramis script will be a part of the Nintendo games.
