Capcom announces The Disney Afternoon Collection for PS, XB1 and PC [Port beg = ban]
- Thread starter FelipeMGM
- Start date
I'll never forget the first time I fired up MQ on SNES. I thought to myself, "My God! This game is gorgeous!" It's been sooooo long since I've played it. If Capcom ever makes a 16-bit Disney collection, they would be INSANE to not include this precious, lil' gem.
No, it's still available.
They will still be in your download history even if they get delisted.
Yeah I realised that as soon as I saw the trailer and felt stupid lol. So I'm guessing the games have all been converted to the Mega Man Legacy Collection engine then? Kinda neat still, a treat for fans for sure
I literally bought the NES version of Ducktales yesterday, what bizzare timing.
What country is that? Label looks completely different from the original US one. One of my favorite games as a kid.

Aside from a crappy GBA port they've never touched MQ again. We need to preserve these gems!
Oh wow! I don't even remember there being a GBA port. What was different from the SNES version? Bad visuals/music?

All semi-modern tv's allow you to turn off overscan anyway no?

I think slowdown is the issue here.
Man it's weird to see someone with a Kirby name and avatar complain about the value of a retro game.

What? The only mediocre one out of the bunch is Talespin. Both Ducktales games are great, as is the RR duo (Even if the second one is more of the same) and Darkwing Duck is almost literally a Darkwing Duck themed classic Megaman game. If this was like, Adventures in the Magical Kingdom, Mickey Mousecapade and Little Mermaid*, you might have a valid point.
*Little Mermaid is short and easy, but surprisingly fun to score attack/speedrun.

Ansered this on a previous page. It's a European cart. The circle-round Seal of Quality with minimal text inside makes that clear.

Holy shit. Now I can finally play Ducktales 2! (and everything else that's not Ducktales 1 or Rescue Rangers 1)
Also <3 that chiptune Disney Afternoon music.

Off topic, but how was the Mega Man Collection on PS4? Might pick it up.

There were some very slight sound issues that have been since patched out. If you're a Megaman fan there's no better way of playing the first 6 NES Megamans than in that collection.

Most sound issues remain in the PS4 version. The most egregious one that forced a restart of the game has been fixed, at least.

Little Mermaid is legit good and super fun! But yeah, it's also easy and short but who cares.
Mickey Mousecapade was garbage (fun fact: it wasn't made by Capcom, just published by them. It was actually made by Hudson).
And Adventures in the Magic Kingdom was okay but I remember it being also frustratingly difficult. Like NES HARD difficult.

I honestly have not noticed them. They can't be that bad if I didnt hear them.
I'm pretty sure Disney itself owns the rights to the 90s Virgin games. I know they published the GOG releases.
OrbitalBeard
Member
They were never that bad (outside of the one mentioned above that's been fixed). But they're still in the collection, at least on PS4.

Pretty much. The GBA had a lousy sound processor which was all the more noticeable when porting SNES games to it. Sound alone are the reason why I refuse to touch FFVI, Yoshi's Island and Magical Quest on GBA.

are the issues still on the xbox one version? i have both consoles and i've been trying to decide which one i wanted to buy the collection for
Alex_Mexico
Member
I dont think so. The X1 version had the least issues (if any).
I have the PS4 version and aside from that one egregious sound issue that was patched out I've honestly never encountered any of these problems.
OrbitalBeard
Member
I honestly have no idea. The PS4 actually had worse sound issues at launch than the XB1 version, but the XB1 game still had some minor sound problems, mainly with some music tracks from the first two games. But they may have been fixed when the game was patched.
Honestly though, it's a pretty solid collection, regardless.

Yes, please! I'm wary because they're licensed games and Lord know these might get delisted in a couple of years!

If the ports are good, I am 100% in on this. Hell, I'd get just Darkwing Duck - I loved that game as a kid. But both DuckTales and both Rescue Rangers as well? Yes please!
Never played the TaleSpin game as a kid though, so no idea if that's worth it.

If the slowdown happens the same exact way as the nes releases I don't see the issue
I loled at the title about port begging when I first read it thinking it's a joke that people would beg for Disney channel games...and then I read that these are the Capcom Disney games from the NES and understood.
It's awesome that Disney and Capcom worked out the licensing to make this happen and rerelease these old games, especially since this may mean so many Capcom X Disney games from the 80's-90's now have the potential of being rereleased and enjoyed instead of being lost to time, but no Chip and Dale on a certain Vilified Console with built in two player controls is a travesty.

The little mermaid on NES was kinda fun too ... .>>
Hey man, that's my VERY FIRST thought when reading the news on Reddit. "Damn, someone in GAF 'guessed' it a few days ago".
Can't remember the thread though. Anyone have a clue???!!? Now I'm super curious.
Anyway, awesome games, hopefully the collection will do it justice.

Darkwing Duck on NES/Gameboy is secretly one of the best Megaman games, runs on the same engine and everything, it's a great game.

This is awesome! I never got to play any of these games since the NES had long reached the end of it's life when I was born (never mind when I started playing games), but I liked all four of these shows and love 2D platforming. I'll definitely be getting this as soon as it's up on PSN. I imagine these will play pretty well with remote play on Vita, too.

this looks awesome
I hope they do a port of the Genesis games eventually too

If I understand how this all works correctly, then turning off overscan on the TV isn't the issue (I have mine set at 1:1 pixel setting), but that in doing so you expose all the rubbish that the NES was meant to hide in older TVs that did use overscan.
I mean, I guess I could turn it on from the TV, but that would deal a big hit to the set's image quality; I'd prefer any adjustment be done by the game itself, if possible.

Oh wow, i just put 4 of these games on my NES Mini, guess i'll just wait for this to come out instead of playing them on there.
