Disney's DuckTales

The Good
Ducktales is a platformer developed by Capcom.
The NES game was the first entry in a successful partnership between Capcom, Disney and Nintendo. Naturally the GameBoy required a port. So, how is it?
Well, quite faithful to the original. Yes, the levels have been re-designed and though they seem a tiny bit shorter and perhaps easier, for the most part everything is here. Nice graphics, an OK sound rendition, the option to complete the levels in different order, the required knowledge of secrets to move forward, the variety in enemies, the secret rooms, and the one thing that defined the original: The pogo stick mechanic. Which feels really good! Is identical to the one in the NES, so the platforming fun is guaranteed.

The Bad
For the most part the bosses are very easy. Except for the last boss: count "Dracura" (ha, ha love that!), very close to be unbeatable because of a failure in design that the original fight just didn't have.

The Bottom Line
Ducktales for the GameBoy is a very nice port. As a platformer is less challenging but also less frustrating and so, better in my opinion.
The NES game might be the more complete version but I rather play this one.
