Say what you will, but Disney made some pretty good games back in the day. There are a great number of good 2D platformers, Duck Tales being one of them, that were fun and even a bit challenging. It might not have been the pinnacle of gaming, but for a diversion it was a good time.

The First Good Licensed Game

Back at the turn of the decade between the 1980s and 1990s, something miraculous happened in the offices of Capcom. Somehow, the company’s licensed game development teams managed to create videogames based on Disney’s animated TV shows that were not absolutely horrible. After coming off the disastrously bad “Mickey Mousecapade,” the quality and success of “DuckTales” at first seemed a fluke, but with a new licensed Disney cartoon game releasing every year between 1989 and 1992, it soon became apparent that Capcom was onto something.

Presentation
For an 8-bit NES game, “DuckTales” looks pretty good. All of the characters and enemies are recognizable for what they’re supposed to be, and the environments look pretty good. However, “DuckTales” runs full-steam ...

A Pleasant Surprise

For being very kid like in nature, I had a lot of fun with one. You play several levels beating bosses and accumulating money. The gameplay was solid, you can have good ole Uncle Scrooge hop on is cane and squash enemies. Also, depending how much money you had at the end, the bigger the pile of cash in the final ending sequence. I played this one several times.
