RetroforceGO! records episode 59 tonight: Disney-Capcom (or, Chad sings a lot) photo

I'm going to let you guys know ahead of time that tonight's show is probably going to contain a lot more win than usual. This week we're discussing Disney games, most of which were made by Capcom, and all of which contained music. Music that Chad will likely sing. A lot. I'm just saying. The rest of us will probably join in as well at some point, so don't say I didn't warn you.

We know you've all played your fair share of Ducktales, Aladdin, Mickey Mania, and whatever else had a Disney stamp on the box. Hit the comments with your questions and song requests for Mr. Concelmo, and we'll cook up an especially magical episode for you to download tomorrow.

Be Prepared! I demand that Chad sings Be Prepared from The Lion King.

Also, if Chad could be any Disney princess, which princess would he be?

Did anyone ever find a hidden sexual message in any of those games? Probably not.

What did you think of The Little Mermaid? (nes) Its no Duck Tales...

I'm going to be in a hurricane...so I won't get to hear this show if the power goes out. That and the fact that I probably have to board up my house during the time its posted.

Chad and whomever has to sing Hakuna Matata since Disney put out like 3 or 4 Lion King related games.

Did anybody play Goof Troop? Great and kinda unique multiplayer puzzler.

I was wondering if you guys could explain why the SNES and Genesis versions of games were frequently different from one another (Aladdin immediately comes to mind). Also, what do you guys think about this no-longer-existant practice of having two different studios develop two different games based on the same IP?

Settle the debate: Which Aladdin game was the superior one, Genesis or Super Nintendo? The way I saw it, the genesis version was prettier, but the SNES version was far more epic.

Yes! Hopefully Chad's singing will be as awesome as it was at PAX!

Tubatic beat me to the question I was going to ask.

For the record, I always thought the Genesis version was far superior. Better art, better level dsign, followed the movie's plot a little more closely than the SNES version, and didn't have walking flower pots.

The final boss of the SNES version was better than the Genesis version, though.

Two games, which is better: Duck Tales on the NES or Chip n' Dale's Rescue Rangers on the NES?

Both great games (in my opinion the best Disney branded games ever), but which one was better for you?

Also, I totally still think there should be a Retro Game Villain episode.

With the latest news that these games won't be coming to the Wii Virtual Console, would you guys play a game where the classic disney characters were replaced with generic mascots?

I don't know about you guys but I would totally support a game called Chad and Topher's Rescue squad for the NES.

Talk about Quackshot. Epic game. Then talk about Castle of Ilusion. Then watch me cry tears of joy.

Ahh those were the days. Now when it comes to Disney titles, you get nothing but rushed movie-to-game adaptations like Wall-E. (Except for Kingdom Hearts, but that doesn't count)

Do you think anything else plays into the slump that became Disney video games besides Capcom no longer being involved in them?

I'm pretty sure its physically impossible to make this show any more manly...er, but you just got to do Make a man out of you from Mulan.

Which of these Disney games would you rate in order of greatness; Aladdin (Genesis), Jungle Book, Castle of Illusion, World of Illusion, Lion King and Quackshot.

I recorded this brief slice of the DuckTales Moon level performed at MAGFest '08 this past January:

You all should come this year! For great justice!

And also, what did you guys think of DuckTales 2 on the NES? Seems to have been largely forgotten...

@Jim Sterling:

Obviously, Chad would be Ariel, the Little Mermaid. You know, because of the ocean/dolphin angle.

Anyway, I have to admit that Aladdin is probably my favourite old school Disney movie while also being my favourite retro SNES Disney game. All my friends would pass that around, trying to beat that epic gem-riding boss level.

My question is more of a request, can we get a list from Chad of all the different Disney-Capcom games that there were? I have a feeling I don't actually know them all.

I second Dale's request to talk of castle of illusion and how awesome the game was back in the day. Although I have not returned since my first play through, I do remember the music and the sound of mickey jumping!

TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES. HERE, I'LL GIVE YOU SOME TOPICS:

1) Talk about the Toad song! Does Chad love it?!

2) Gizmo-duck!

3) Darkwing Duck: Last of the great Disney TV cartoons?

And I totally know what the intro is going to be...

Also, may I request "I Just Can't Wait to be King?" Definitely my favorite song from "The Lion King" movie, though that level in the game was a bitch.

Do you like?
If you do, how would you want your character to look (if Topher wants his to be changed that's fine)? I have a feeling that Colette would want claws and Chad a dolphin staff, but other than that I have no idea.

And before you get too excited, this isn't for a game. Just a fun little project for myself (I also made Jesus).

Can't wait! Since this is a musical-esque episode, I think it's prime time to ask a burning I've had for a while: What is each of you're favorite musicals and why? (If any of you answer Legally Blonde the Musical I will be overjoyed ;)

Also, If real how awesome would the game: Chad Concelmo and The Lost Pit of E.T.! be?

@Dale- YES there will be much talk about Castle of illusion. That was my fave game of all.

Greatest. RFGO. Ever.

As for questions:

1.) Your personal favorite Disney/Capcom games: what are they and why?

2.) Mickey Mouse and the Magical Quest: did any of you ever play this one? If so, opinion/thoughts on it? Is it your favorite of all of them, too?

3.) How can companies, like Capcom, learn to take licensed franchises, like Disney, and create a superb gaming experience from them? IS the recent glut of poor licensed games simply because companies don't care? Or is it because they don't have the know-how like they used to? Please talk about this a bit, even if it's framed in the context of Disney-themed games.

I just want you guys opinions. Would you rank the Kingdom Hearts games in league with the old Disney-Capcom games?

If I hear anything other than "no" from any of you, I'm killing a kitten.

Don't worry, I wont kill any kittens.

Also: I'm not all up on the historical facts, but Capcom only made the Disney games on the Nes and Snes, am I correct?

So(If thats true) would you say that these Disney-Capcom games were better than the Disney games on other systems(eg. Sega systems)?

My pictures broke the comments and I forgot my calcifications :p

In the first one, the villains chasing Chad are the Podtoid crew who are playing the part of some Indiana Jones baddies (Rev as the Nazi General, Jim as the sadistic Nazi Major with the top hat, Aaron as the Eyepatch guy with the monkey and Tiff as the Swordsmen Indy shoots.)

Second one is of chad fighting off a tribe of hostile executives while pushing an old lady in to the Piranha Plant infested shrubbery.

Enjoy!

We used to rent an NES and Chip n' Dale's Rescue Rangers from a gas station back in the day... Did any of you ever rent a game from a gas station?

Are there any Disney movie-games that they either didn't make or turned out shit, that you wish they'd let Capcom do? Like a Nightmare Before Christmas game for SNES.

Also, if you wouldn't mind, tell me the most suck I could get for 3000 wii points (VC only).




Dyson: My friend thinks that FPSes are fun. Should I break his legs?
Chad: How disturbing is Cho Aniki?
Colette: Have you heard that Secret of Mana is coming out on the Japanese VC?
Topher: I can't beat Star Parodier without using a continue. Should I try using one?
All: My FPS loving friend is trying to like retro games. What should I download to help him with that?
All: Did any of you ever play "Chameleon Twist" for the N64?

Chad, would you play a game about this:
The Princess and the Frog

I don't care what people say; I'm pretty stoked about a new 2-D Disney musical

I PLAYED CHAMELEON TWIST!

Also, Chad, can you sing the entire Elephant Love Song Medley from Moulin Rouge? I mean, I can.

Wait, um, it's not my fault. My sister loves that movie and watches it all the time. I just pick it up from walking by. Really.

Man Chameleon twist was messed up.

I don't know if people are getting the names confused or I'm completely alone in saying this but Disney's Castle of illusion is still today the MOST underrated game series that lets you dress up as a magician, firefighter and dutch mountain climber at any time. (also, better boss fights, color palette, and platforming)
we all know chad's favorite disney song is "one step ahead" (i could be mistaken), but the REAL question is what's topher's favorite disney song?
also, why are disney games made this gen so lackluster?
