Nowadays, manga games have become the hardest hit area of skin-changing games, and many classic animation works from childhood are always authorized to make some cheap card mobile games, which makes countless players be deceived to the heart.
As everyone knows, as early as twenty or thirty years ago in the game industry, even the earliest home console FC platform, I think that manga games were also synonymous with high-quality games. Many well-known Disney, Warner Bros., Fox and other well-known anime characters have been adapted into FC games, and any one of them is the quality of today's skin-changing mobile games, and these games accompany us through one happy childhood time after another.
Today @ Old Boy Game Box will take you back to a few high-quality comic games in your childhood, and see if there are any of your dishes in them?
Mickey Mouse's Adventure
There were actually quite a lot of Mickey Mouse games on the red and white machine platform back then, after all, Mickey Mouse, as the top IP of Disney's home that year, its image itself was also suitable for all ages, which was very suitable for making family-style video games.
It's just that Mickey Mouse's popularity in China is not high, and there is actually only one well-known red and white machine game, and that is "Mickey Mouse's Adventure".
In addition to relying on the well-known IP of Mickey Mouse, the industrial design of this game is also extremely mature, even if the reputation of other IPs is not too bad.
"Mickey Mouse's Adventure" is a side-scrolling shooter after all, and the color scheme is very cartoonish and gorgeous, and the operation feel is also first-class, and the playability is not under the "old four" games at that time.
The difficulty of this game is relatively moderate, and the average player can basically clear the level with a little practice, which is still very likable.
When I was a child, the Japanese version and the American version of "Mickey Mouse's Adventure" were popular in China, in addition to the difference between the two versions of whether the bullet is a star or a white ball, the miscellaneous soldiers and bosses in the game are also different, the American version of "The Adventures of Mickey Mouse" characters are mostly taken from Disney's works, and the Japanese version is mainly based on "Alice in Wonderland".
It's a pity that I couldn't understand these cultural connotations when I was a child, but now I feel full of conscience when I examine the evidence.
Donald Duck dreams of adventure
This classic game is also known as "The Adventures of Donald Duck" or "Donald Duck Club", two generations of "Donald Duck Dream Adventure" are very classic on the red and white machine platform, combining action-adventure and decryption elements, whether it is scene design, art, music, and operation feel are all first-class, which is one of the best in the manga game at that time.
The main characters in "Donald Duck's Dream Adventure" are not from the well-known Disney version of "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck" by domestic players, but from another Disney cartoon "Donald Duck Club", which tells the story of Scrooge Donald Duck and his descendants exploring and digging for treasure.
Due to the natural adaptation of the adventure theme into a video game, the two "Donald Duck Dream Adventure" on FC have a good reputation, so that this series has been remade many times, not only in terms of graphics, but also out of the art limitations of the 8-bit machine, and the gameplay retains the original characteristics of the FC version of the game, which is a must-see masterpiece for nostalgic game fans.
The adventures of the Strange Duck
"The Adventures of Strange Duck" is also a Disney-licensed game, but the folk Chinese name is actually borrowed, and the real name of this game should be "Darkwing Duck".
Fei Tiande and the aforementioned "Donald Duck Dream Adventure" actually share the role of a pilot Ah Biao, according to the anime setting, this character was originally hired by Scrooge, and later became a companion of the strange duck Feitiande.
"Strange Duck Adventure" on FC is also a side-scrolling adventure game, but it is more simple and direct than "Donald Duck Dream Adventure", because Strange Duck Feitiande mainly uses pistol attacks, and the game can also obtain a variety of secondary weapons, more like a low-profile version of "Mega Man" game.
Even so, it's still a bit difficult to clear this game, especially the scene where there is a ring jumping in the air, which is still a childhood nightmare when I think about it, and I don't know how many friends stopped here.
Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle
When it comes to the Bugs Bunny series of games on FC, many friends often think of three games - in addition to this "Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle", there are two other "Bugs Bunny Adventure".
In fact, the "Bugs Bunny" of these two series is not the same rabbit, the Bugs Bunny of "Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle" is from WB's "Looney Tunes" series, and is an adult gray rabbit named Bugs Bunny, who has a more casual and cunning personality.
Next door is a member of the Tiny Tunes series, featuring a teenage blue bunny named Buster Bunny, who is a close relative of Bugs Bunny.
"Bugs Bunny's Crazy Castle" on the red and white machine continues Bugs Bunny's whole character and funny style in the cartoon, although the gameplay is very simple, in the final analysis, it is a puzzle game that collects carrots in various mazes and sets traps to hit various villains. However, the game map is very varied and very brain-burning, and it really takes a lot of perseverance to get through it from scratch when I was a child.
In particular, "Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle" still has several very complex challenge levels, in the era when there was no simulator archive, I don't know how many friends have ever solved these extremely complex challenge levels?
Bunny Adventure
When I was a child, the popularity of the red and white machine with cute cards and ventilation games was basically not low, and "Bunny Adventure" is one of the more representative games.
"Bunny Adventure" became popular in childhood, the main thing is because of its own character transformation setting, in the game we can choose one of the three companions, as the character we transform in this level, and the transformed characters usually have good abilities.
The Plucky Duck glides and swims in a straight line in the water, and the Furrball climbs walls.
Dizzy Devil is supposed to be everyone's favorite character from his childhood, and can unleash an invincible tornado with attack hits, but he is usually unable to run and is bulky.
Each of the three characters has unique strengths to play in each level, and there is always something new to have fun beating with different characters.
"Bunny Adventure" actually has a sequel on the FC platform, the main venue of the sequel is the amusement park, the game content is mainly based on various amusement projects, the default protagonist in the previous work, Buster Bunny, turned out to be the strongest character in the final level, you can release a slalom kick to attack, and the operation is very handsome.
In addition, what excellent manga games on the red and white machine did you have a crush on in your childhood?
