The intent behind the remakes of Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, and Full Throttle comes from a spirit of preservationism more than anything. The idea was to make these games easily purchasable and playable by modern audiences while keeping as much of the original games intact as possible. So you get things like cleaner audio, uprezzed graphics, simplified controls, and so-on, but nothing that radically changes the games.
