Darkwing Duck (NES) Playthrough

Ойындар

A playthrough of Capcom's 1992 license-based action game for the NES, Disney's Darkwing Duck.
Led by Steelbeak, the crime syndicate F.O.W.L., The Fiendish Organization for World Larceny, has struck once again! A group of supervillains has descended upon the city of St. Canard, and you know what that means...
"I am the terror that flaps in the night. I am the winged scourge that pecks at your nightmares. I am Darkwing Duck!"
Darkwing Duck was one of Capcom's beloved Disney-based NES games, and despite being released in the summer of 1992 as the Super Nintendo was beginning to pick up steam, it was quite popular. It received extremely favorable reviews in the popular gaming magazines, and it took the cover of the May 1992 issue of Nintendo Power, which is all the more impressive when you consider that Contra III was covered in the same issue!
The game is a Mega Man-style run-and-gun platformer. Darkwing carries a gas gun that can be outfitted with adapters: the heavy gas travels along the ground in both directions, the thunder gas sends bolts of electricity flying at 45 degree angles, and the arrow gas can create platforms to provide access to hard-to-reach areas. But unlike the Blue Bomber, Darkwing can also block enemy fire by raising his cape as a shield, and he can grab on to ledges and background fixtures to give him an extra boost in maneuverability. Though it's similar to Mega Man in several ways, the fresh coat of paint and new abilities make Darkwing Duck feel distinctly like its own game instead of a clone.
The controls are smooth, the challenge is stiff without being overwhelming, the moody graphics are excellent, and the soundtrack is loaded with jazzy earworms that'll keep you tapping your toe the entire time. Darkwing Duck is a quality game, and it was one of the best NES releases to hit stores in 1992.
Let's get dangerous!

    It's always the little details with games that give them style. I love his intro animation where he lifts his cape! I remember enjoying this show as a kid in the 90s. Capcom really released so many great licensed Disney games back then. How times have changed for both companies...

    Darkwing Duck deserves a remake like the one wayforward made about Ducktales. Hours well spent in my childhood playing this game. Off topic: loved what they showed about Darkwing in the lastest Ducktales show.

    "Let's get dangerous!" I saw some episodes of DARKWING DUCK as a little kid back in the early 1990's. I also had this game for my NES. The game looked at first easy, but then, it got harder and harder 😹. I also finished it so many times 😹👍🕹️. DARKWING DUCK is not a bad Disney game, but DUCKTALES is definitely the best, i have ever played from Capcom. 😺👍🕹️

    While my personal favorite Disney platformer on NES was Chip and Dale 2, this is pretty solid as well, especially the catchy music.

    This is one rockin' game for NES, a dynamite soundtrack, a good challenge, crisp and cartoony graphics... Captures the show's look and feel to a T! (FYI, I played it on the Disney Afternoon Collection) Sidenote: I got to meet the voice of the Terror That Flaps in the Night at Comic Con earlier this year... Jim Cummings is a blast to listen to! I even got his autograph on my Nintendo Power Issue that featured the Darkwing Duck game!

    Darkwing Duck for the Nintendo Entertainment System is based on the Disney animated TV series Darkwing Duck in syndication as part of the syndicated program block The Disney Afternoon/ABC in the early 90's.

    I couldn't pick favorites back then. You had Animaniacs, a single grand slam, but then you had innumerable hits, base, triple and more, from the Disney line-up. Darkwing Duck was one of the coolest. It had as much pulp vibe as the previous cartoons except it lampooned The Shadow. Not that throwing barbs at The Shadow is deserved, but Darkwing Duck made it fun. Ignore Mike Matei. Any show that makes the main character become a polite tea servant for an episode and still make you laugh should come back and teach the posers today on how to sing the blues.

    This was my favorite Disney game to play in the NES back in the day. Had some trouble facing Steelbeak but after trying different attacks, figured out how to beat him. Professor Mole was a challenge but found out how to beat him. Don’t know how to spell his name but eh whatever.
