And with that brand new thread title, we are on our way to more Disney games galore! Starting with the end of the beginning! Episode 6: The Prince and the Pauper (1990) The next game I shall be playing will be none other than Quackshot, so stay tuned for it folks! Feel free to make suggestions to run by me on what to add to this thread either here or by PMing me, I already know we got some people up for putting other games down on here. Have fun everyone!

I love Quackshot, it does seem to have lifted quite a number of ideas from the NES Duck Tales games, but it's still extremely enjoyable and has some of the most vibrant visuals on the Genesis, which is super impressive for such an early game on a color palette-challenged system. Also, the original Castle of Illusion is a must, it's definitely the best Mickey platformer in my book. I'm still kind of bitter about how the remake made the controls feel a lot less tight, the Duck Tales remake may be talky to the point of ridiculousness, but at least it pretty much plays like the original.

FinalGamer posted:Some but not all, Clarence Nash the voice actor for Donald Duck actually did say that he had to "quack" in English, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Japanese. I dunno WHICH cartoons he had to do, but I think we can reasonably say anything from the 50s onwards when he was just an absolute suburban poo poo and nothing else. That's what I was talking about.  Same thing with pre-WWII Mickey; he used to be a womanizer and an animal abuser. Donald just used to be very "patriotic".

World of Illusion however I would LOVE to do, but only if I can have someone else able to partner it up with me. Quackshot definitely does feel quite Ducktales-ish in game design what with exploring the world and being set in essentially the same universe. Either way I can't wait to get it going. You made me flashback to the improromptu mantle battles back in the days. Thank god there wasn't a time limit on stages, because those were really fun.

Since this is now a Disney Megathread and we are stopping at Kingdom Hearts does that mean games like Epic Mickey are off the table? I don't own that game but since people are planning to show off the remastered Ducktales and Castle of Illusion game I'm asking more for clarification than anything.

No Castle of Illusion? For shame, I thought you were some sort of Ultimate Gamer or something! Now I'll have to dig out my copy and play through it instead, since I can't watch you do it. *frown* In all seriousness, to the dude complaining about the controls of the remake - you are absolutely right. I did enjoy it still, but the controls are really loose sometimes and playing the original and then the remake really makes you appreciate the older version even more. Blogkb - because you too like video games, old and new (it's just a blog)

What I've thought about maybe doing for this thread is take a look at Mickey's Speedway USA (both N64 and GBC version) and Mickey's Racing Adventure. However, since they're racing games, I wouldn't do a proper LP of them, but rather a one-shot, what I personally call "Let's Take A Short Look At", which in the former case would go into showing off the interesting bits and mainly showcasing how it's basically an unapologetic Mario Kart 64 rip, and in the latter case would go into showing what this game does different compared to other racing games, as it has a surprising amount of twists thrown in. I really like the games, Mickey's Racing Adventure in particular, but LPing them proper would get boring rather fast. Would that be OK? I mean, Mickey's Racing Adventure takes more than 8 hours to complete (mostly because of the searching for coins and nuts and grinding for money), but the abridged version would be quite short (ballparking it at 30 minutes tops). Before I even think about starting to work on this, I'd prefer to get this cleared up first, just in case.

God drat, that's a slider puzzle alright. Mickey's Racing Challenge has those too, but they're only 5x5 and show you the shuffling, which is a lot easier to deal with. This is just dickish.

I just discovered this thread today and shotgunned through the whole thing. A Disney megathread is a great idea. I had only one Disney game growing up, and it was one of the more obscure ones. I'll go back and see what how I do at it now all grown up, but if I still suck I might request someone else play it.

Ok, the average human short term memory limit is 5-9 most people can do 7. The goofy challenge is using THE CLASSIC mastermind rules for the hints. Those were the rules I grew up with. Gold is pliable but not because it melts... The purer the gold the more pliable it is. You were right he isn't the same giant. Just be glad the the sliding puzzle doesn't generate in an unwinnable state. The unwinnable state can be generated by lifting one piece and swapping it with another piece.

A 6x6 slider puzzle? I think I just glimpsed my own personal hell. The game looks pretty nifty if you don't play it on challenging. Positronic Spleen posted:I don't think you mentioned what happens when you say no to the giant's question. It's the most magical part of the game!

Just out of curiosity, how mainstream Disney does a game have to be to qualify for this thread? And how much experience do we actually need with the game to qualify as "LPing" it? Because I played the old Rescue Rangers and Tailspin games way back when they first came out, and those are Disney. And I apparently hate myself.

If I can get some kind of recording software to work on my ancient wreck of a laptop I might give a solo run of World of Illusion a try, since as I recall there were actually a few differences depending on which character you played. But then again I've never even attempted an LP before so maybe I'll just lurk instead! Either way this is my new favourite thread. Old Disney games are such a weird mix of amazing and incomprehensible, it's so great.

Also I Loved the Chip 'n' Dale NES game, that was one of the best games I ever played and I won't hear otherwise. I meant mainstream Disney as in "Relating to one of their major characters or movies". They don't seem to give much love to their older animated TV series. Ducktales, Darkwing Duck, Rescue Rangers... do they even show those on Disney any more? I will admit I do enjoy Gravity Falls though.

Ooh, I just had a thought! I played the poo poo out of the Lion King games (both SNES and Genesis) when I was a young'un. I'd love to give that a shot! I'd probably have to do both versions because I recall there were subtle differences between the two, in a Mickey Mania kind of way. Oh yeah. Put me down for The Lion King (Genesis and SNES). Let's do this.

This is the thread I've been waiting for and never knew it. Mickey Mania was weird to watch because I played that as a kid and none of the levels rang any bells for me apart from Lonesome Ghosts, which I never beat, nice to see the rest of the game! And hell yes Quackshot and World of Illusion coming up, awesome games. I have a mad love for these old Disney Games and have a few sitting in a box. Doing some testing to get back in the swing of the Genesis Castle of Illusion if nobody else takes it, if they do I might crack out Aladdin instead.
