Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse tells the tale of Mickey Mouse versus big bad Pete. This is a story that is pretty timeless, one that has gone on for decades. Longer than Mario and Bowser by a long shot. Disney are a protective lot, not just anyone with the dough can make a Disney game. At least it used to be that way. I am ignoring a ton of the PSOne 32-Bit era Disney games here. Rose colored glasses are off, folks. Capcom was the darling of Disney games, when they released one, you just knew it was going to be awesome. From the black white Game Boy screen to the Super Nintendo, Capcom knew Disney games. Magical Quest starring Mickey Mouse is no exception.
Classic Disney story
The plot of Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse is pretty basic. It is on par for a Disney movie and fits gaming well. Mickey Mouse is stuck in a land that is ruled by the ruthless Pete, who is emperor here. Pete has dognapped Pluto during a game of catch (what a meanie). A friendly wizard offers his assistance to Mickey Mouse, who gladly accepts it, and the quest begins. Donning the wizard’s robe, Mickey is empowered with certain magical powers that he can use to traverse the land. You goal is to defeat the baddies that are on Pete’s side, defeat Pete and rescue Pluto. That is a mouthful. Are you up for the task?
Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse is a trilogy
Sadly, on the Super Nintendo we only got the first game of the trilogy that Japan saw. Gamers in North America would have to wait till the release of the Game Boy Advance before we would get the other two games in the trilogy. The benefit of waiting though is that they were portable now.
Now, who wants a 2.5D side scrolling action platform title reviving this series? Or a new Disney based Mickey Mouse game? Sure, we got Castle of Illusion on Android and iOS but I want to see Capcom take another crack at this license.
