NES Works #092: Mickey Mousecapade / Joust / Millipede / Donkey Kong Classics
Added 2022-05-24 12:48:09 +0000 UTCLast week's episode arrived a day late, so I felt it would be only proper to square the circle by publishing this week's a day early. This video contains a lot of games, but several of them have already been covered (sometimes more than once) in my various video retrospectives, so they get a nice and breezy overview. I do go into much greater detail about Mickey Mousecapade, the strange kickoff to the Capcom/Disney legacy which, in hindsight, bears unmistakable signs of its origins at Hudson...

It drove me simply insane. I was so amped to play this not knowing that this would be my first foray into the dreaded escort mission.

And we weren't up to beating that second stage at that point in our video game lives. I mean, my quality choice wasn't much better in those days (... Wrestlemania instead of Tecmo Pro Wrestling? What was I thinking?), but... Also, I figured the fairy was supposed to be Tinkerbell, but who knows given the Hudson crossover.
