Enjoyed all of the games part of this to some extent. The whole is better than the sum of the parts type game. Achievements kept me from using the rewind and felt like I really beat them myself.

The best games in this pack by far are Ducktales and its sequel. Though they're not without faults, Scrooge McDuck still has one of gaming's most unique move-sets, revolving around his versatile pogo-cane. But the other titles are mediocre at best. Rescue Rangers has interesting ideas (like using the omnipresent boxes as both weapons and shields) that are undone by messy, cluttered levels and lazy animation. Darkwing Duck is a below average Megaman clone, and Talespin is leaden and nonsensical.

A solid collection of Disney/Capcom Classics, which includes 6 NES games. The games themselves are fun, though maybe I'm being greedy, but I kinda wish there was more. I know The Little Mermaid wasn't a part of The Disney Afternoon block, but the game was another Capcom production and at the moment isn't commercially available (though the game is based on the movie and not on the cartoon show, but still). Y'know, the guys who made this compilation advocate for preservation? They can't make a case about DuckTales being unavailable at a GDC, but can mention The Little Mermaid now. As well as Goof Troop and Bonkers, but I think that would've been too much. The compilation also acknowledges Game Boy versions of some of the included games, and they are actually unique, they include new level design that feels similar, yet different, and, in case of DuckTales 2, even feature new mechanics. Not available legitimately.

Again, what is there is solid enough. All the games are at least decent. In addition, there's a boss rush for each and a time attack mode. 1 hour boss rush and 2 hour time attack achievements are a joke, even for TaleSpin, which I consider the hardest game in this roster. Lastly, there's a gallery with some artwork and behind scenes for all of the games and, of course, music player. For those interested in that sort of thing. A good compilation that leaves me wanting more, which is probably a sign of something great. Or again, maybe I'm just being needy.

Only played this game for Duck Tales & Chip'n Dale

This collection kind of surprised me. The games here are all fun! On top of that, the extra features are worth exploring. There's a speedrun mode and boss rush mode that use splits like people who do speedruns online. It feels really cool to complete a stage and see the splits update instantly. This is a game that you should definitely check out if you either love these old games or want a beginner-friendly way to get into the feel of speedrunning!

A fun way to play several of Capcom’s licensed Disney titles from the NES era. Boss Rush and Time Attack features are an interesting distraction after you’ve completed the main games.
