DuckTales

DuckTales is a platform game developed and published by Capcom, based on the Disney animated series of the same name. It was first released in North America in 1989 for the Nintendo Entertainment System and later ported to the Game Boy in 1990. The story is about Scrooge McDuck, who travels around the world to collect treasures and outwit his rival Flintheart Glomgold to become the richest duck in the world. DuckTales was produced by collaborators from the Mega Man series and sold over a million copies worldwide on both systems, making it Capcom's best-selling title for both platforms. The game was praised for its tight controls, unique non-linear gameplay and colorful presentation, and is often considered one of the best titles for the NES, appearing in numerous "best of" lists.

Story

The Beagle Boys attempt another robbery of Scrooge's money bin, with Baggy, Burger and Bouncer capturing Beagle Huey, Dewey and Louie. After Scrooge rescues them, he finds Big Time Beagle in his office with a painting in his hands. With the help of Duckworth, Big Time is defeated and retreats. The painting reveals where five treasures are, and Scrooge wastes no time in going in search of them. Scrooge and Launchpad visit the Amazon to find the Inca King's scepter. With eight gold coins, they discover the hidden temple of Manco Capquack, but the scepter is lost and the temple is destroyed by its guardian statue. The native chief then approaches Scrooge and Launchpad and thanks them for giving them back their city, and in return gives Scrooge the recovered scepter, which was just the king's backscratcher. Scrooge, the nephews and Webby visit the castle of Drake of Vladstone, also known as Dracula Duck, who was the heir to the coin of the Lost Empire. The boys fall into a trap door and are scattered throughout the Transylvanian castle, but Scrooge rescues them from the Beagle Boys, who are disguised as ghosts. Each of the Beagle Boys also had with them a torn piece of paper with part of a riddle on it. They discover a mirror in which Scrooge solves the riddle, and Magica De Spell reveals herself, who is also after the coin. Scrooge and Magica fight for the coin, and the sorceress is defeated and retreats empty-handed. Scrooge and the nephews travel to the African mines to find the Giant Diamond of Inner Earth, but they find that the workers are scared away by voices and earthquakes, claiming that the mine is haunted. Deep underground, Scrooge finds out that the Terra Firmians and their games are the cause, and after interfering, he is attacked by their king. After being defeated, the king makes an agreement with Scrooge: he wants to stop the games and in return continue mining to get rid of the diamonds, which they consider "waste rock". He gives Scrooge the Giant Diamond of Inner Earth to help him get started.
