Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse by Sega for the Sega Genesis is a sign of the times. If you had a non-sports licensed product, you had a 2D side scrolling action game.

August 6th, 2016 Carl Williams It is no secret that recently Disney re-released three classics on to the popular GOG.com service.

June 1st, 2016 Carl Williams When you think back to the 16-Bit era, what is it that stands out to you the most? Is it the plethora of original titles that fans got?

World of Illusion Puts Mickey and Donald at the Forefront of Disney Gaming – December 17th, 1992 – Today in Video Game History
December 16th, 2015 Carl Williams World of Illusion by Sega on the Genesis console bucks an unwritten rule of gaming. There is a loose theory that says the third game in a series is crap. That is why it is a loose theory, it doesn’t really apply unless your name is SNK. Sega had slowly been nicking away at the […]

Disney Done Right on Sega Genesis
April 19th, 2015 Carl Williams Disney games are some of the most popular with publishers, nearly as valuable to a game publisher as the coveted hit movie license. During the heyday of the 16-Bit generation there was more than just a slight competition going on for your platform to have the best Disney games. Sega, Capcom, Sony, Virgin and others […]

Who Built the Better 16-Bit Mickey Mouse Trap?
March 7th, 2015 Carl Williams For the sake of fairness here I am going to keep this comparison discussion squarely in the 16-Bit era of gaming. That means we won’t be comparing the Game Boy, Game Gear, Nintendo Entertainment System or Sega Master System versions of the Mickey Mouse games. Sure, there were plenty on those platforms, most by Capcom […]

New Game: Mickey Mouse and the Castle of Illusion HD Hits Android
June 19th, 2014 Carl Williams All too often, when a company re-releases a classic title, they stick to the “inside the safe zone” method of doing it. This usually means simply updating the graphics and sound, if at all, and maybe adding some between level cinemas and calling it a day. Disney and company have gone above and beyond that […]
