A port of Disney's DuckTales

DuckTales is a platform game developed and published by Capcom and based on the Disney animated TV series of the same name. It was first released in North America for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1989 and was later ported to the Game Boy in 1990. The story involves Scrooge McDuck traveling around the globe collecting treasure and outwitting his rival Flintheart Glomgold to become the world's richest duck. Produced by key personnel from the Mega Man series, DuckTales would go on to sell over a million copies worldwide on each system, becoming Capcom's best-selling title for both platforms. The game was praised for its tight control, unique and non-linear gameplay and bright presentation, and is often regarded as one of the best titles for the NES, appearing on numerous "Best of" lists.

Played this a lot more than the NES version, loved it just the same

I definitely played this version first instead of the proper NES classic. I remember Scrooge controlling as nicely as NES, then idk, maybe it's just my memories.

Engraçado que todo mundo cresceu com esse jogo em outras plataformas, mas pra mim ele sempre foi do GameBoy. Enfim, clássico total.

It never reaches the heights of the NES game, but at the time it was as good as portable conversions go. Still quite enjoyable as it offers a very similar experience.

A cute downscaling of the NES game. Plays the same way, you visit the same stages, but there's differences to make it work for the hardware. Definitely give it a shot if you've played the NES version and want to see a slightly abridged version.

A little slower than the nes version and the music isnt as amazing. But the game is still very fun and plays well on the monochrome machine. A good game that you have in your Gameboy collection.
