  • A playthrough of Capcom's 1989 NES game, Disney's DuckTales.
    Played through on the normal difficulty level with the best ending shown. For the full review with media (including soundtrack and screenshot archive), be sure to check out www.nintendocomplete.com/duckt...
    DuckTales is an excellent platformer headed up by the same people responsible for the Mega Man games, and should be pretty irresistible for anybody who was a kid in the 1980s when the TV show was new.
    It's also pretty unique, in that it (and DuckTales 2) are the only games that I've ever seen to allow you to travel to exotic places and slaughter the indigenous creatures as an old man using his cane as a pogo stick.
    It easily does justice to the show, and as fantastic as the remake was, the original is still the best!

    And just like that, it's the early 1990's all over again. No mortgage, no job, just Nintendo. Nostalgia is a great feeling from time to time. This is one of the games I remember playing at my friends' houses.
    I'm not even sure if the kids go to each others' houses anymore to play vid games. I think the internet connected stuff has made our society lose something important. That's why more and more young families are moving away from technology.

    My oldest son used to watch the original DuckTales in the Louisville area on FOX affiliate WDRB, in the Chicago area on then-superstation WGN (now NewsNation) and in the Lexington area on fellow FOX affiliate WDKY, and in reruns on The Disney Channel and Toon Disney (now Disney XD).
    Back in those glory days, WDRB was known as "the childrens' destination," meaning that children always watched their favorite Louisville station WDRB, and from the station's launch in 1971 until 2002, WDRB was the best place to catch childrens' shows such as Bugs Bunny, DuckTales, The Real Ghostbusters, The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Fun House, Double Dare (Nickelodeon), Power Rangers, Spider-Man, Popeye, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, X-Men, Beetleborgs, Xuxa, The Pink Panther, Battle of the Planets, Ultraman, Peter Pan and The Pirates and The Mickey Mouse Club, among others. BTW, WDRB favorites (and real-life friends) Tamara Evans and Jennifer Baileys both grew up watching those childrens' shows on Channel 41.

      It is amazing how this is the same console as the one that did Super Mario Bros with its ugly clunky graphics and blocky 16x16 pixel sprite level design. This is closer to a SNES title. Fun fact: of the 100 games that came out on both NES and SNES, in 50 cases the NES game is better than the SNES. The SNES only wins in 20 cases. Such an amazing console and the best one Nintendo ever made.

    I am probably one of the few people who played Duck Tales 2 first. As a result, I have more vivid memories of that game, although I do see why the first part is such a classic, and seemingly the best-selling Capcom NES game. Can't go wrong with most of these older Capcom platformers. Also, jumping on a pogo cane like that would probably wreck Scrooge's sternum. So much for realism. ;)

    Hi, what emulator are you using? I'm trying to play the game but every single emulator I use has issues when you press more than one key. It makes it nearly impossible to cross the spikes jump from vine to vine or keep pogoing high enough to get the chests up top. I even tried going to the bottom and pogoing over the spikes yet he still takes damage and after a couple of falls dies. I'm using the keyboard. I'm not sure if that's what is causing the issue, but I can't seem to use my XBox controller on the emulator.

    Life is like a hurricane
    Here in Duckburg
    Race cars, lasers, aeroplanes
    It's a duck-blur!
    Might solve a mystery
    Or rewrite history!
    DuckTales! whoo hoo!
    Everyday they're out
    They're making
    DuckTales! whoo-oo!
    Tales of daring do bad and good
    LuckTales! whoo-oo
    When it seems they're heading for
    The final curtain
    Good deduction never fails
    That's for certain!
    The worst of messes
    Become successes!
    DuckTales! whoo hoo!
    Everyday they're out
    They're making
    DuckTales! whoo-oo!
    Tales of daring do bad and good
    LuckTales! whoo-oo!
    D-d-d-danger watch behind you!
    There's a stranger out to find you
    What to do, just grab onto some
    DuckTales!
    Who-oo-oo-oo
    Who-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
    DuckTales! whoo hoo!
    Everyday they're out
    They're making
    DuckTales! whoo-oo!
    Tales of daring do bad and good…
