Parents buying licensed games for their kids
I will never understand this. Did people not have a second sense for garbage movie tie-in games? I distinctly remembering being able to discern this subconsciously as a kid. It is not hard to get the memo.
Parents don't know shit about vidya or anything, they just know "Billy likes the funny dog movie, here's a video game based on it, Billy will probably love it!"
Well to be fair there was a time when they were actually good
I hear the castle of illusion games are supposed to be good and I like the donald duck/duck tales games. Maui mallard gets some love here on /vr/. Disney really fell off in the 2000s.
This is a pretty unique platformer on ps1 and I guess pc and stuff. Every level is sort of an open ended level which you explore on your own pace and you usually travel vertically too.
This unique type of platforming is called a "Mario 64 clone".
Okay I never played mario 64.
This was peak demo disc gaming. They gave you all of Andy's house to play with no time limit, so long as you didn't collect any of the Pizza Planet tokens.
Those games were made by SEGA and Capcom, that's why they were so good. They did however have Mickey's Speedway USA in 2000 which I've heard good things about, as well as the Donald Duck game on Dreamcast and PS1
Mickey's Speedway USA was by Rare and was pretty good considering it was a Mario Kart clone and everything.
Movie games were not always bad or lazy and if they bought the game for a little kid when ps1 was new they wouldn't probably put it down unless it was real bad.
idk man that is not true. I was acutely aware of games that were of bad quality as a kid. I could always tell just by the cover, or like first impressions.
Some of the covers are even made to look cheap to begin with I guess but yeah I can understand you had a more accurate taste as a child. Most children if they were like 7yo and you give them a game with their favorite movie character they will play it if it's not absolutely bad.
homie parents are parents and kids like all kinds of garbage as long as it's not abysmally bad. Lots of licensed games weren't even that bad back in the days. OP's game isn't some classic but it's still far from being shovelware-tier
Yeah I don't believe that
>Yeah I don't believe that
How old are we talking? I started playing video games when I was 7-8, and even back then I avoided sports games/move licensed games like the plague. It is not hard to tell if you regular a game store and you notice what franchises/publishers are the most prominent.
>I will never understand this.
Try using your brain, it's not difficult. Parents don't know shit about vidya, but they know
about "current hot franchise" and know that their loves vidya. What's hard to understand?
Also it was legitimately a decent Spyro clone, even Dalmatians stuff aside, and if you're a fan the game is even better.
>tell just by the cover
Oh so you're just trolling.
Back in the day there weren't that many ways to always know if something was bad or not. You were meant to have a magazine or a tv show telling you if a game was good or not.
Usually parents and children who were unaware of the quality of the games, would buy these. I must add, as a kid I bought several games that were based on a franchise, and all of them were kinda bad. Of these: Monsters inc, shrek, the land before time. After a while I started to realize they were all bad, and stopped buying em at all.
These days with the internet you can easily lookup reviews, watch gameplay and so on, so this is easier to avoid.
nah. as a kid i actually dreamed about having wunschpunsch tie-in video game, i even imagined cover art in my mind i wanted it so bad... but it never happened
>Now entering, the secret room!
I enjoyed it. I was a disney brat and 101 dalmatians was one of my favorites. I always picked oddball. Also this game copied the rugrats golfing mini game
my mom used to like that movie as she related with main villain because she was into textile business. it was kinda funny
Sure, a lot of those games played like spyro or crash. They probably picked them because they liked the dalmatians in this example.
Well Spyro isn't actually on Dreamcast, for one
That and it's Disney
shovelware soul
game's shit but I loved it as a kid. had a dedicated bark button
Funnily enough Toys for Bob eventually ended up making the Spyro remakes
Spyro was a Mario 64 rip off
>instead
no one picked it instead of spyro you dense motherfricker. people played it who wanted more of the same
This.
I genuinely believe these people only play one game per genre per platform, if anything. I don't know what they're doing here, they genuinely don't play video games.
