June 13th, 2020 Carl Williams Darkwing Duck is a Disney animated feature set in an alternate “duckverse” from Ducktales. Launchpad McQuack and Gizmoduck both appear each show, in similar positions of life, but are considered different characters. That means two different universes to deal with here. Think of Darkwing Duck maybe as a DC Comics Elseworlds story. In 1992, Capcom […]

Darkwing Duck Game was in Development, Shelved
January 9th, 2019 Carl Williams If you remember the days of playing Nintendo Entertainment System games then you probably remember one called Darkwing Duck.

10 Great Licensed NES Games That Are Not from Capcom

Whomp ‘Em Foregoes Native American Niceties on Nintendo Entertainment System – Today in History – March 20th, 1991
March 20th, 2016 Carl Williams Native Americans are one group that has gotten the short end of the stick when it comes to video games. Sure, they have been featured, poorly, in titles such as Custer’s Revenge (Atari 2600) and plenty of western games over the years. The problem is, all of those appearances were “off” about the heritage of […]
