Totally possible. I very much like ES File Explorer, it has a nice interface for browsing different network sources (FTP, Samba, Dropbox all in one place). In order to control your TV as well as access the films on it it, try Skifta - it's pretty straightforward to use, doesn't have too many buttons and is stable. You should also be able to stream films or music from the Kobo to the TV with it.
ScummVM works and has a native port :-) (if you were planning on using ScummVM trough DosBox?... you can cut out DosBox if you want) The latest stable release is good.
