    Wow! There are some great gems from my childhood here! Back in the early to mid 90's before the age of the Disney channel you had what was known as Disney Afternoon, which was a set of 4 shows that debut on regular television.

There are some great gems from my childhood here! Back in the early to mid 90's before the age of the Disney channel you had what was known as Disney Afternoon, which was a set of 4 shows that debut on regular television. Anyone with a television could watch it with or without cable and the shows were very popular. So popular infact, that Capcom partnered with Disney in order to make several obligatory 8 bit nes tie in games. 6 of those are presented here. 5 of those 6 games are great. The other, decent. Gamepaly and graphics from the NES has been emulated perfectly here. Remixed soundtrack on the menus are perfect. The addition of a new rewind button makes beating most of these a cinch. You'll love this collection if you grew up with the games, enjoy retro gaming, have children that need something simple to play or just want some easy achievements. All others need not apply. The only reason. That this score is an 8 is because I loathe paying 20 bucks for 20 year old games. Wait for a sale.… Expand

    Ancient gamer or not, the Disney Afternoon Collection gives you six decent-to-great retro platformers for a deeply discounted price, and that's really all I need to say. These games were fun then, they're just as fun now, providing a decent challenge and plenty of hours of Disney greatness for mere pennies. If running and jumping are as synonymous with gaming to you as they are to me, the Disney Afternoon Collection is more than a worthy download, it's a must-have.

    In the end, I somewhat enjoyed Disney Afternoon Collection in spite of its shortcomings. Retro gaming isn’t just a fad, but rather a growing movement for gamers who miss the simple challenge of using just a pair of thumbs. For that population – and fans of the equally nostalgic cartoon series – this collection is a bargain. But, for a true throwback thrill, there are plenty of ways to get it without resorting to unresponsive controls and questionable game design. Like most collections, this is a well-intentioned labor of love for fans of the IPs and 8-bit completists, yet I’m guessing most newcomers won’t see much value in this journey down memory lane.
