Episode Notes:
1. All footage captured with a combination of real hardware and the Mega SG.
2. Many of these games are still quite affordable.
3. Disney often helped in the development of these titles, but only actually did a few of them by themselves.
4. Disney and Sega was a magical combination. Capcom did some good stuff themselves, but I always preferred the former.

Of these that I have played, Quackshot remains my favorite by far. Aside from the visual and sound, it has a lot of charm to it expressive characters. The sassy moon on the zip line level, the senorita outside the pyramid, even that bit in the intro of Donald running right into the trap door and falling out of sight as the title screen slides in. Still brings a smile to my face.

Proud to say I own many of the winners on this list. Being licensed games many times these games just don't get re-released. It is because of the gems on this list that lead me to be a retro gamer today. I am still amazed by the quality of Mickey Mania for the Sega CD. For those who don't own a Genesis or Mega Drive, the good news is that Disney released great Aladdin, The Lion King & The Jungle Book on Steam and it is quite an amazing compilation of these games from multiple platforms including Genesis, SNES, Master System, and Game Boy when available. Best of all you don't need some fancy high-end PC to play them although I would recommend some sort of PC gamepad or game controller. Again, very well done SLX. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Disney was probably the most influential franchise in video games during the 8 and 16 but era. They really new how to maximize the animation and made sure their games passed their own quality. Those games got the Disney and Nintendo seal of quality.
@AFourEyedGeek 2 жыл бұрын
The most influential I wouldn't agree with as that means they influenced the video game industry more than any other company. They wouldn't have influenced others more than Nintendo with their consoles and their frranchises like Mario, Metroid, Donkey Kong, and so many more. Seems like everyone wanted a mascot like Sonic from Sega after its success, and so many games companies imitated Street Fightrr 2 from Capcom. Disney made some great games, but with Sega, Virgin and others developing games for them, Disney's influence would be minimal compared to the other big video game companies. Well that is what I think anyway.

18:05 Can't recommend Maui Mallard/Cold Shadow enough. This game is actually on Steam under the title Cold Shadow and is a direct port of the CD-ROM release which had a remastered CD-quality OST, better colors, and a PDF of the colorful PC manual. Keep in mind that while it can run on modern computers, nothing else is changed after that as it is an unoptimized port. You may have to look up a guide to get the music running, or mess with Steam's controller configuration to bind the keyboard to the controller since it does not have native controller support. But once you do, it's amazing. One of the best Disney Interactive games.

Roy Disney was apparently so horrified by Fantasia that he demanded all unsold games to round up and destroyed. The issue wasn't due to his dislike of what the developers had done, or because the licence had been granted without his permission, but because he wanted to respect his Uncle Walt's wishes of never allowing the Fantasia IP to be used for artistic license. Somehow someone at Disney had allowed the IP to be used in error.

I was just playing through castle of illusion remake today on my PC.. I wanted to take a moment to heartily recommend it for anyone who loved the original game. It worked immediately on a modern windows 11 setup with 3070.. and it even supports, natively, 16:10 resolutions for those with laptops or monitors that have that aspect ratio. I am playing it at 1440P, 60 FPS. Looks and sounds beautiful and Sega Australia should be commended for their effort. I am using the Steam version. No issues at all! My monitor is 165HZ and caused no conflicts. You can remove the 65 FPS cap that the game runs at by default with a config file edit, but I don't recommend it as it breaks a couple things later in the game, and let's be honest, 60 FPS is perfectly fine and mirrors the original game's 60 FPS (I have set it to a 60 FPS cap in the nvidia control panel rather than the weird default 65 FPS). Have fun!

Disney published two holiday 95' games in NA/Europe. In NA we got Toy Story and Gargoyles. In Europe they got Toy Story and DD Maui Mallard. Either way in one of the regions you missed out on a quality title. I know as a kid Gargoyles were super popular so it made sense to get that one out (maybe they weren't as big in Europe) DD Maui Mallard indeed almost got released for the holiday season of 96' in NA but no one decided to pick it up or the publisher backed out. Also it's understandable why Disney didn't want to publish all three in both regions as you end up competing with yourself in a sense and there is only so much budget/resources.

The reason why Maui Mallard never got a North American release for the Genesis because Nintendo bought the rights so they can bring the SNES version here.

I always found it amusing how Pinocchio was advertised as "Only For Nintendo!" on the front of the Super NES box. Uh, you sure about that? In addition to its difficulty, Gargoyles commits the sin of retconning the other gargoyles, making it seem as though Goliath was going solo. Did they see the show? Was it still in development?

15:00 This is my first time hearing about Goofy's Hysterical History Tour ever...this seems like a potential "hidden gem" at a glance. I'm sure there's Genesis gamers looking for more 2D platformers to add to their collections! (whether literal collections or figurative collections, lol)

Same sentiment here: before their Sega games I didn't really care for Disney. But playing "Lucky Dime Caper" and "Land of Illusion" on the Master System made me a huge fan. Speaking of, please also make a video of their SMS and GG games, which IMO easily trump the MD games.

That last gargoyle game looks interesting. I have yet to play it, but I think it might be good to have enemies with more energy than usual, I'll rather have a few strong enemies than a lot of weak ones, I think it just requires more technique/skill to play.

Do remember having a friend back in the day who was super into the Genesis, to the point where he would make weird claims. Yeah one time he was bragging about Sega and Disney being a match made in heaven, how Nintendo wishes it had good Disney inspired games. Do remember it was kind of a doushy move, I threw Chip n Dale rescue Rangers from the nes into chest, followed by Darkwing Duck, followed by Ducktales, followed by the little mermaid, then I grabbed mickeys magical quest, grabbed goof troop, he left after the snes cart of goof troop was about to hit him, lol.
