So with Capcom pushing out Sour Patch Kids to xbla/psn, like many 80s babies I recall a time on the N.E.S and even S.N.E.S when the house that bred Street Fighter once also bred QUALITY licensed games. Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers, THE AWESOME Duck Tales, Tale Spin, Disney's Magical Quest, even Aladdin for the S.N.E.S ah good times. Honestly I can still recall the day I first played Magical Quest, walked 20 mins (each way) in rain to a video store (remember those?) to rent it after I had pestered the owner to stock it and reserve me a copy..now that's FAITH in a game! Personally I do not have the highest or best of expectations for SPK but I can only hope it does come through well and at least gives me a modern day injection of that old feeling of "w00t I love this!" that is pure and based on an icon I grew up with or was growing up with.
(last minute edit)
Just had a bad memory about this era, while in all honesty I had to see any publisher/developers go, I have to say that I am glad that I at times forget the times when Acclaim was pumping out 80 percent licensed crap, with the rare gem in there. Let's not forget the fact that THQ also put out some AWFUL shit. Egads! (not to say THQ does not publish the POS here and there still but their QA has improved)
Pretty much all I had to say on this for now but here are a few other good mentions from the once N.E.S 3rd party tyrant capcom
Little Nemo: The Dream Master
Snow Brothers
Darkwing Duck
Mighty Final Fight
Can anyone name this man?
