Alright, retro gamers, dust off your old controllers (or, you know, just charge up your Switch). It looks like we're getting a serious dose of nostalgia. The Disney Afternoon Collection, a beloved compilation of 8-bit goodness, is officially heading to the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. And yes, you can pre-order it now!
Disney Afternoon Collection on Switch?! Pre-Order ...
For those who missed it the first time around, the Disney Afternoon Collection brings together a bunch of classic Capcom-developed games based on some of the most iconic cartoons from the late '80s and early '90s. We're talking *DuckTales* (woo-oo!), *DuckTales 2*, *Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers*, *Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers 2*, *Darkwing Duck* (let's get dangerous!), and *TaleSpin*. That's already a solid lineup, but this new Switch version is kicking things up a notch.
So what's new, besides the obvious platform shift? Well, the big news is that this edition includes *Bonkers* and *Goof Troop* which expands the collection beyond its initial offerings. You can snag the original Switch version for $29.99. The Switch 2, with it's more impressive guts will set you back $39.99. Not a bad price to relive some childhood memories, especially with the added bonuses. Speaking of which...
It's not just about the games themselves, though. This collection also packs in some serious quality-of-life improvements. Think rewind features (perfect for those notoriously difficult sections!), access to the original soundtracks, a behind-the-scenes gallery filled with concept art and development materials, and even both boss rush and time attack modes for those who want a real challenge. Honestly, these additions alone make it worth revisiting even if you already played the original collection.
And if you're a sucker for physical media (like me!), there’s a physical edition in the works that comes with some unspecified collectibles. I'm hoping for some cool pins or maybe even a mini art book. We'll have to wait and see what they are. But knowing Disney, they'll be something worth adding to your collection. Mark your calendars, folks, because May 29, 2026 is when we can all dive back into the Disney Afternoon. My inner child is already doing the DuckTales pogo jump!
