Unlike most people who purchased the Ducktales remake I'm not motivated by nostalgia for the NES classic, to tell the truth I have never played the game. What I did play as a kid was the GameBoy version of Ducktales. I remember it specifically for being one of the few games I could actually beat. Which was a big deal for me because games back then used to be freaking hard. I almost never managed to get to the end of any games I owned. Ducktales had just to right difficulty for a kid my age, unlike the Mega Man games where I never even managed to beat a single level. I remember playing through Ducktales from start to finish just about every time I visited my grandmother so it was also just about the right length too, especially for a game without a save feature. I would say hello to my grandma, have a sandwich and play some Ducktales, then it was time to go home. In my memory this was an almost weekly routine but might actually have happened just once or twice.
Either way, Ducktales was a wonderful game with fantastic music and a different approach to platforming thanks to Scrooge being able to bounce around on his cane like a pogo stick. I also love the Ducktales cartoon so I'm excited about the addition of voice acting.
