The Disney Afternoon Collection

The Disney Afternoon Collection for PS4, PC and XONE is a set of six games based on classic Disney animations and cartoons, which was first released on during late 1980s and early 1990s. The Japanese company Capcom developed all of these – they established a fruitful cooperation with Disney in the 80s. A couple of great titles were yielded by this cooperation. The Disney Afternoon Collection includes games based off on four franchises: Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers; Duck Tales; TailSpin; and Darkwing Duck.

Misc. 

The Disney Afternoon Collection are six legendary games from the NES:

Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers (released: 1990) is a platform game for one, two, or four players. The RR team is looking for a cat belonging to Mandy – a little girl.

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2 (released: 1993). The RR team faces a nemesis – another cat, who wants to steal an ancient Egyptian artifact. Just like in the original, this is a platformer allowing up to two players to play at a time.

Darkwing Duck (released: 1992), Robin Duck in disguise faces the F.O.W.L. organization, which is attacking the city of St. Cannar. Players roam the streets and rooftops using various gadgets. It’s a typical 2D platofrmer.

DuckTales (released: 1989) is another classic platofrmer. We play the part of Scoorge McDuck, who embarks on a journey around the world with his nephews. The game offers a variety of vivid levels, which can be beaten in different order, and an enjoyable soundtrack. The game also got a remake in 2013, which was developed by Way Forward.

DuckTales 2 (released: 1993) was a rather careful attempt at developing the original formula. Another adventure awaits. You must discover multiple fragments of a map that may lead to a treasure, but was concealed by an ancestor of uncle Scoorge.

TaleSpin (released: 1991) is a shoot 'em up, in which we control the Baloo airplane and complete different tasks, mostly delivering goods. During the mission, we have to deal with attacking air pirates.
