The Kingdom Hearts series- I just love see all the great characters together in one game. WDW Magical Racing Tour- I had a blast as a kid racing through WDW.

LOL, I don't think I've beaten any of the games yet. It's one of the few PS1 games I have for the PS2 Aladdin, Genesis; great animation and levels. I don't think there wasn't anyone who didn't like this game. Lion King for the Genesis, Adventures in the MK for the NES and the Kingdom Heart series are also my favorites as well.

Tron's Deadly Discs - this was a fun arcade game Tron 2 - HAd a bug where it was impossible to get past a certain level as it would crash, but it was fun while it lasted. I also used to like Adventures in the MK, but I was just a kid.

Originally Posted By Disney and beyond >>Hmmm, most Disney video games are god awful.<< Actually, A lot of the classic games made by Capcom (back in the SNES/Genisis era) Are considered classics of the age. in fact, the Ducktales GB game is considered to be one of the best games on that system. The Magical Quest trilogy and the Castle trilogy are also considered to be classics. Castle of Illusion was THE must have game on the Genisis before the release of Sonic.
Originally Posted By basil fan Oh, yeah, that Rescure Rangers game was GREAT! There was on elevel with moving platforms I could never manage, so my sister would pick me up and carry me through! Also liked Aladdin, though I couldn't get through the lamp level. And Hercules. I'd love to try Kingdom Hearts if they made it for my PC. Love The D Show.

Originally Posted By JenniBarra My list would include: Adventures in the Magic Kingdom The Great Circus Mystery (Starring Mickey & Minnie) - SNES I just inherited an Xbox360 and was disappointed to find out that Kingdom Hearts is not available for that platform. Well, at least there's some other Disney titles available.

Originally Posted By mansioncaribbean My top two favorites are "Mickey Mouse Escapade" and "Adventures in the Magic Kingdom", both for the original Nintendo, but I also like Nintendo's "Duck-tales."

I do not care very much for the "Final Fantasy" relation, but I mostly play it because they have Disney characters. I have a question, though, what game system can you get "WDW Magical Racing Tour" on? I want to buy it so much, but I cannot find it. Are there any copies for the Playstation 2, X-Box, or Game Cube?

And for those who are curious about the game, Goofy accidentally loses the 6 Silver Keys needed for the parade, and it's up to you to find them all. The levels include: -POTC: Save the captured maidens and light a rescue flare. -Autopia: Pete has the key and will only give it up if you defeat him in a race. -Space Mountain: Steer your rocket and avoid meteors and enemy ships. -Big Thunder: Avoid boulders and broken tracks as you drive your train to the correct station. -Haunted Mansion: Use candles to defend yourself against the 999 Happy Haunts and defeat the Master Spectre. -Trivia: Walk around the park and correctly answer the trivia questions to retrieve the key.

I love using the Fab 5 in this, especially listening to their comments to each other: If Donald passes Huey, you hear, "You're not the boss of me!" But if Huey passes Donald, you get, "Watch your temper, Unca Donald." Unfortuneately, the tracks are so far inferior to Mario Kart that the game just can't compete, IMHO.

I also recall Magica De Spell being one of the bosses. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckTales" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckTales</a>_(video_game) I rented DW a long time ago. It took me FOREVER to beat...who was the first boss...I think it took me forever to beat Quackerjack or Megavolt. Unfortunately, the last day we had it was the day I made it to Steelbeak's lair...and I died before I got there, lol. In DW, you merely went to various places in St. Canard and defeat the Villain who was causing havoc. Steelbeak was the final boss. Each level had 3 locations that you could go to. I don't remember the exact level the Villains were in, but it was something like this: LEVEL 1 -Quackerjack -Wolfduck (created specifically for the game) -Megavolt LEVEL 2 -Liquidator -Bushroot -Moliarty FINAL LEVEL -Steelbeak <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkwing_Duck" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D...ing_Duck</a>_(video_game)

Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 Oh, man, so many! I am an avid gamer and have been since basically late Atari, early NES days. So, some of my favorite Disney games for various systems are: NES: Ducktales. It's a classic, Capcom had a huge winning streak with Disney games. Really, any of the Capcom Disney games will be a lot of fun, and top quality. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sW-ZUVjjqJY" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...ZUVjjqJY</a> Gameboy: Ducktales. Again, it's a classic. It's nearly identical to the NES version, but black & white and some areas altered for the smaller screen. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-zYFoYNr68" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...YFoYNr68</a> Ducktales 2. Same kind of gameplay as the first one, but new areas to explore. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzoa-Gzizyc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...a-Gzizyc</a> Mickey's Dangerous Chase. This one was frustrating as a kid, but I've played it again recently and it's easy for me now. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJ0qEkRM63c" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...qEkRM63c</a> Mickey's Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour. Ok, this one wasn't available in the states, but it's still fun. You play as Mickey, and you go through the castle and defeat the villains who have taken over. It's a pared down version of an SNES game focused on Tokyo Disneyland, which I'll get to later... Sega Game Gear: The Lucky Dime Caper Starring Donald Duck. I loved this game! It was one of my first Game Gear games, and I played the heck out of it. The graphics are great for a little 8 bit system, and they managed to get Donald's personality in a tiny sprite. He would throw a tantrum if you let him stand around too long. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjMWjiJvUPY" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...WjiJvUPY</a> Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse. This was a port of the Genesis version, but every bit as fun. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa_TGN_PP4k&feature=PlayList&p=206E1E94D5A6D8E5&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=55" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...index=55</a> Legend of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse. This was a sequel to the first game, and have a more medieval setting. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc-D5OXE0Tw" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...D5OXE0Tw</a> Deep Duck Trouble Starring Donald Duck. This was a sequel to the Lucky Dime Caper, and had better graphics. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i5BkITOx3w" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...BkITOx3w</a> Sega Genesis: Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse. A true Genesis classic, and was pretty big before Sonic showed up. The villain in this is the wicked queen from Snow White, only named Mizrabel instead. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ix1gWkjd1w&feature=PlayList&p=2619C8AE57387F9D&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=2" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...&index=2</a> Quackshot Starring Donald Duck. Basically take Indiana Jones and switch him for Donald and you have this game. Graphics were great, and so was gameplay. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReqkwkGKi9k" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...kwkGKi9k</a> World of Illusion Starring Mickey and Donald. This was a sequel to Castle of Illusion, but improved on everything; graphics, gameplay, and music. You could play as either character, or both. This also had some voicework, which was rare in early Genesis games. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCNRkFuLVJA" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...RkFuLVJA</a> Mickey Mania, the Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse. This is a real classic! The Genesis version is considered the better of the versions, and it's got such quality, it's amazing for it's time. The animation is brilliant, and the fact you get to wander through Mickey's cartoon career is wonderful. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7U25tSMQB0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...25tSMQB0</a> Aladdin. This was so amazing when it came out because Disney actually animated the sprites, so it really looked like you were playing the movie. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er0G3ttS9Cc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...G3ttS9Cc</a> Super Nintendo: Aladdin. I liked this Capcom version just as much as the better Genesis version. It had it's own charm. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4QZS_7DPys" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...ZS_7DPys</a> Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse. Again, Capcom makes GREAT Disney games! This was what Castle of Illusion was to the Genesis. There were a couple sequels to this game too, and it was re-released for the Gameboy Advance. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myHRHxo-o8o" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...RHxo-o8o</a> The Lion King. This was when Capcom no longer had the exlusive license for Disney games, so The Genesis and SNES versions of games started to be basically the same. At this point, I would say that the SNES versions became the superior ones. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4prTYyEVUU" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...rTYyEVUU</a> Mickey's Tokyo Disneyland Adventure. This was a Japanese exclusive, but it was really fun. You play as Mickey and work your way through the park's attractions. like Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, and the final area is Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour. I also LOVE the ending to this game! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2_OZHMPfI0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...OZHMPfI0</a> Ok, there are many more for later systems but I'll post that info later.
