I would have liked those games to all get remade DuckTales style but I am definitely okay with straight ports, as well.

Nah, that's Mario and Wario.

Wario's Woods is like the last game released on the NES (or one of the last, but it also came out on SNES).

Magical Quest, Ducktales, Rescue Rangers, and Goof Troop were some top-tier licensed games. Whoever at Disney setup those contracts was on the ball.

Just Press Play is pretty cool. There's one in york and it's nice going into a game store that is being run by people who actually like games and aren't trying to sell you all sorts of bullshit stuff.

That said Amazon is still cheaper.

Amazon is still cheaper but I'm a weirdo without Amazon Prime and I'd rather give my money to the local folks instead of Amazon.

Lancaster seems like it'd at least be a relatively chill place given that my impression of it is that it is largely amish/mennonite territory and they're relatively chill people from what I remember.

I wouldn't mind some guidance though in regards to good places and bad places in lancaster. The divine swine looks like a nice place but the only reason I know of that place is because I think they have a deal going on with the mount hope winery and ren faire where they advertise for each other or something like that. Other than that, I'm not familiar with much of the area around Lancaster other than there being a place called "Intercourse"

Lancaster is being overrun by rich people from NYC, DC, and Philly buying condos in renovated buildings downtown that are marketed as condos for "young adult professionals." I'm a young adult profession, I'm married to a young adult professional, and with our combined young adult professional salaries we couldn't even entertain the idea of moving downtown. It's also been described as a "Little Brooklyn" and "Little Portland" which is making me uneasy. As for the Amish and Mennonites, they're here yea, just respect them, don't take their picture, don't run over their buggies, and it'll be fine.

I haven't been to the Divine Swine, I don't go to Manheim very often. If you travel into Lancaster City and want a fun bar, check out Tellus 360. It's a really cool, chill bar. They have really good food and lots of beers on tap. It's also really neat cross section of every type of person living in the city. Other good bars are: Root (vegan bar, the food rules even if you aren't a vegan) and Characters Pub (gastro pub). Good food places include: Rachel's Creperie, The Sprout/Rice and Noodle (Sprout and R&N have the same menu, R&N is on the outskirts of the city and Sprout is downtown. super excellent Vietnamese, especially their vegetarian soup with tofu and egg noodles), Himalayan Curry and Grill (the best Indian food in town), Souvlaki Boys (the best Greek food in town, esp their Athena wrap + french fries), Aussie and the Fox (Australian restaurant and bar), and if you want to spend a ton of money on a meal make reservations for Citronelle (French). That's a comprehensive list of my favorite places to eat and drink in Lancaster.

Sega made some great Disney games but they'd have to do their own collection for that poo poo.

In general it kind of sucks that Virgin came and ruined everything with Aladdin. The Genesis Aladdin wasn't bad game and honestly might be one of the most impressive games ever made considering how insanely rushed it was. Still, it's insane success (the second best selling Genesis game) made it so Disney took their games from Capcom and Sega and gave them to Virgin, who never managed to make anything even close to Aladdin again and then they just decided they could make games themselves and they became even worse.

That Sour Patch Kids game Cody Morty and was supposed to actually be good (it was cheap though). I think the key full price advertisement game (other than serious based on specific cars which I think at least sorta count) I can think of was that weird rear end Skittles GameCube rpg so it's been awhile

I was going to say, the VW New Beetle game on the N64 was surprisingly fun and had pretty decent track design. They put some effort into that drat thing.

The golden age of licensed tie-ins basically mean that while a lot of poo poo got made you could have talented developers creating good games that just vaguely happened to be tied to whatever the license was and they'd get funding for it because of the license. Now we're in the era where it's cheaper and more profitable to slap Elsa's face on a match 3 game and call it a day
