Fantasia (Genesis) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

[@Seishae]

One of the most poorly-programmed games I’ve ever seen. I think I remember the instruction manual actually saying something like, “if something weird or unexpected happens, it’s because anything can happen in a dream!” Good save, guys.

[@NTxC]

Yeah, the programming is very poor. For example, there is a special jingle that's meant to be played when you die with no lives left (you can find it in the Sound Test), but you can never hear it in-game due to the sloppy programming.

[@NintendoComplete]

Fantasia looks incredible, but don't be fooled. The controls are a sloppy mess and the game is inordinately hard, especially for a kids' title. Too bad, really - Fantasia should have had a better game.

[@OswaldMiyake35]

NintendoComplete I'm not the only one who thinks the music horrible? It's from GEMS?

[@NintendoComplete]

Oswald Epic Loquendero It's pretty rough. Too bad the Gyruss NES music couldn't be used in the intro instead ;)

[@NintendoComplete]

alxxpspqr For sure, it was a huge disappointment. It verged on pissing me off tbh lol. By 1991 most games had endings that were better than the NES's oh-so-common one-screen ones. That bs handshake was hard won, for sure.

[@OswaldMiyake35]

NintendoComplete Even Amagon has a better ending than this. Its just Mickey and some Kind of Composer shaking their hands. That was in the Movie?

[@OswaldMiyake35]

Well, the game (Fantasia) was developed by Infogrames, the same guys who botheched River City Ransom and renamed Final Mission as Action in New York (Still better than S.C.A.T).

[@Arkanizz]

Game was impossible to beat.

[@ConqueringWeightLoss]

I beat it when i was 12. It was probably due to the fact that Genesis games were expensive and since i was stuck with this crap, i had the mindset that i was going to at least beat it...and i eventually did.

[@lysippus]

i loved castle of illusion and finished it, so i got fantasia. ended up giving up on it after a while, not fun. i think i got to the jungle stage and it became a chore to go any further.

[@UchihaFabio]

I beat it once. It was terrinly difficult

[@ToniG4]

But i'm beat him!

[@JohnSkellington]

Because it was broken since development was rushed!

[@M4R14NO94]

I think this is probably the first time I've seen anything past level 2. lol A funny story... back in the day I used to have Castle of Illusion, albeit via a pirated cart (these were [and still are] super common over here in Argentina) that for whatever reason had a label for Fantasia instead. The amusing part comes in when sometime after I got that, I see that my cousin, who at the time lived a few blocks away from my house, had an also pirated copy of Fantasia... with a Castle of Illusion label. It was odd, although I believe we had purchased said games from the same store, so it kinda makes sense.

[@l0s_]

Jajaj algunos juegos que tengo también tienen cualquier cosa pegada. Igual de chica no me importaba, yo jugaba nomás

[@NTxC]

Yeah lol, those pirates were funny as hell. I had a pirate cartridge of a beta version of "Daffy Duck in Hollywood" with a "Daffy Duck: The Marvin Missions" sticker on it, a game that didn't even exist on the Mega Drive lol.

[@toemasmeems]

Philippines has a lot of those pirated games too, really awesome

[@creativecatproductions]

That last level in hell is just unbelievably impressive. This game is just awful, but the art design for that last level is just mind bending.

[@Shnecko]

This game was insanely hard. Even as a little 6 year old gamer who could get all chaos emeralds in all Sonic games and generally beat any game put in front of me, this one I struggled with the most. Just take a look at the last level for example. You can't even tell what is a safe platform to jump on most of the time.

[@NTxC]

Absolutely. As a kid I beat Aladdin and The Lion King on Difficult but I could never even finish this game. I once almost got to the "final boss" (if we can call it that, lol) and died, I'm pretty sure I cried lol.

[@solarflare9078]

Fitting because both games were done by Infogrames, towards the bottom comment

[@qepdestehombre]

This Game has a really dark vibe. I remember playing this Game with the jaw tight and My throath completely closed . Mickey's spirit, Hell's Trip, Some kinda Halloween stage, black pteranodons, weird shit.

[@manganiaco]

I can't explain, but when i was a kid, this game FRIGHTENED ME. And it wasn't even the difficulty...

[@pappico]

SAME. I thought I was the only one lol.

[@aalzien722]

Omg something about it was very eerie

[@Number1StarSB]

The game still looks incredible! For a 91' release it looks out of this world. It's to bad the music is done poorly as well as the gameplay. Western developers took a little while to hit their stride in the 16-bit era.

[@stelomation]

So apparently many years ago Roy E. Disney actually made a promise to his Uncle Walt Disney that no licensed merchandise would ever come out the 1940 Fantasia film. When Roy found about about this game’s release he actually sent complaints to Sega claiming that they broke Walt’s wishes. The game was shortly recalled after only 5,000 copies were sold, with the remaining to be destroyed. Yet finding copies of this game for a dirt cheap price is still very easy.

[@JackEacher]

All i can remember about this game is that i liked the soundtrack but it was difficult af. never got past the underground map with the big crystals.

[@AddyLovestar]

This game seems so joyless

[@hazzmati]

How so?

[@ravick]

It really was. I had it. It was the 2nd game I got on my sega and I hated it. I never reached the end. Furthest I got was in the beginning of the prehistoric level. The controls didn't feel responsive. It was stressfull to play as a kid, didn't like it at all.

[@adammclaughlin845]

There was joy to it: when you switch it off and play Decap Attack instead!

[@SolarChip]

That's probably the best way I've heard anyone describe it

[@samuelgarza2466]

Hazzmati, the sloppy controls, the freaky graphics, and the mediocre midis of the Fantasia soundtrack made it joyless and without substance, when compared to the actual film.

[@fruitlion8]

Believe it or not, this was one of my first video games. I'm genuinely surprised it didn't put me off completely, but at the same time I wish it had succeeded. It wouldn't be until Kingdom Hearts 3DS that we'd see Fantasia represented correctly in video game form.

[@thegsk]

[@kevinlopez227]

You had to press down while you are falling upon an enemy. If you dont do this it will hurt you

I remember finding out you could hold Down to kill enemies... after months of playing :) It was a god damn revelation lmao. Before that I was puzzled how the game's attract mode/demo made it look like it you could bounce on the enemies, with a little jingle and all. I think I made it to world 3 with spells and just dodging enemies lol.

Logo: We see the Sega logo in its futuristic font (which is in blue and contains many white stripes around it) on a black background. On most games, the color changes in shades of blue. Variants: This logo has a lot of variations, but below are some variants for the regular logo: In its early days since until 1991, the registered trademark symbol "®" symbol was used. Starting around late 1990, the "TM" symbol replaces the registered trademark "®" symbol. Sometimes, the logo lacks the trademark symbol. On some Game Gear titles, the logo is plain blue and takes place on the blue background. Starting in 2017 to honor Sega Forever, this logo returned as a secondary logo for its placeholder, with the on-screen logo turning into the 1988 logo with the Sega jingle. There is a Sega Master System variant. The logo's individual letters slide in from from the darkness. After, the text "MASTER SYSTEM" and a copyright stamp appears. FX/SFX: Just the changing color. Sometimes, the logo fades in and/or fades out. Music/Sounds: None or the opening theme of the game. Music/Sounds Variants: On games produced by Infogrames (except for The Smurfs 2), we hear a vocoder yell "SEEEEGAAAAA!". The Sega Master System variant has a rising square wave chord when the logo's letters slide in and the 8-bit Sega jingle when the text and the copyright stamp appear. Availability: Common. Seen on most games for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. Also appears on some games for the Sega Game Gear (and the Sega 32X attachment for the Genesis/Mega Drive). Some of the only games not to use this logo were most Sega Master System games and every Electronic Arts game for Sega Genesis (including EA Sports games as well). But one EA Genesis game that contains the logo is Shaq Fu, while Baku Baku Animals, Bonkers Wax Up!, Daffy Duck in Hollywood, Double Dragon, Lemmings, Sonic Blast, Streets of Rage, Ultimate Soccer and Virtual Fighter Animation were the only Sega Master System games that contain the logo. The logo can be also seen on EA Game Gear games. It is generally left intact in most re-releases of Sega games of the time period like on Wii Virtual Console re-releases of Genesis games.

[@JPNightsClub]

There was another game like this, but it was black and white and it had the old school mickey. It was cruelly hard and mickey shot Bubble like bullets with his wand I believe. It was also for the genesis.

[@NintendoComplete]

Are you thinking of Mickey Mania? The first level in that game was black and white, and iirc there is a Mickey with a wand at one point in that game.

[@JPNightsClub]

@@NintendoComplete correct thanks, the game wasn't cruelly as hard as this one.

[@NintendoComplete]

+Invidente7 It was ported to the NES, Game Boy, GBC, and a couple computer platforms. Most of them came out within a year of the Genesis one.

[@Invidente7]

[@kevinmarks13]

Also i love the music,its creepy and haunted And the control its not as hard as u think,just hold down arrow when u jump

[@samdeacon7910]

Am I missing something? I've got this cartidge as part of a megadrive bundle... but in my version jumping on things doesn't kill them, it hurts my character instead... making it EVEN harder???

[@yusakug]

I believe like in Castle of Illusion, you have to hold the down direction on the D-Pad while you're jumping. This will make Mickey stick his rear out, and bounce off the enemy. Just jumping on them normally will hurt you.

[@notspoileratall5471]

You gotta hold the down button when in mid air to kill with the jump. When i was a kid i had the same problem, i beat the game until the world 3 where is literally impossible to continue without knowing that. This game is so bullshit

Fun fact about this game's horrendous remixes of the movie's soundtrack: When reversing the audio and then converting it to a midi, the download link will redirect you to a video titled *GHOSTTOWNWALK_0000.avi* to anyone who understands the reference - don't worry, that video is fake.

[@lemarechaltateau]

I may be alone here, but I LOVED the game. Yea, it took me quite some time to get used to the controls, but I actually liked how the heavy sorcerer clothing was applied to Mickey's movements. And again, yea, it was really hard to master the controls but once you get used to it, the game flows quite nicely. You may say that such learning curve is boring and unnecessary for your taste, and that's ok. But I enjoyed how the game urges you to take it seriously. You cannot play it recklessly. Even Castle of Illusion allows you to be reckless. I got so carried away by the easiness of COI's gameplay that Mizrabel killed me multiple times cause I didn't know how to take her seriously LOL. And honestly, even for todays standards, I think Fantasia is gorgeous.

[@stevenart1988]

I can find a lot of information on GEMS (Genesis Editor for Music and Sound Effects), but little of the release date on it besides a nebulous "1991". I have to assume it was made available after this game started development, and at a point where rewriting the music was a logistical impossibility. Asssuming the info presented on the game's Wikipedia page is legit, we at least know who to blame (Sega) for wanting to adapt an orchestral-centric film on the Mega Drive and the YM2612. It goes without saying that the soundchip's strengths lay elsewhere. It's kind of a pity that over the years there's been little interest of a Fantasia ROM hack to address the wonky moving platform code, sporadic enemy spawning, accidentally bugged-out music on losing all lives, clunky musical loops, and a general musical rewrite. It's understandable, mind - who'd want to go through all that effort for what's still a fairly middling 20 minute experience at the end of the day? It's just a pity the original devs didn't have enough time originally, and never really got the chance for a do-over either. Almost makes me wonder where the staff all went from here.

[@NTxC]

I am romhacking this game. I already fixed the tanky controls, but I am having an issue with bouncing on the enemies, because Mickey now bounces by default on all objects he can. I'm probably going to make it so you have to press Down if you DON'T want to bounce.

[@MrBoulayo]

[@Vicemir]

Had I a Mega Drive back in the day, I'd have pestered my parents to buy the Fantasia game... and two days later pestered them more to exchange it with some other game, probably :p I've always loved Fantasia since the theatrical re-release of 1990 and consumed the VHS release, so the idea of a game based on it had me ecstatic, and the (deservedly) nice press one could see at the time around Castle of Illusion and Quackshot, may have led to think this was another instant classic. How wrong. And honestly, it doesn't look even that great to me - the visuals feel inconsistent and have aged worse than other games of the era.

[@4zerking]

I don't understand something, perhaps someone can explain it. I played this game as a child and I remember it very well, as far as the first two levels go (inside the castle then outside) but then I remember going straight from that to the one around 13:00 where you climb up plants. I then remember only the last level being the hell one, and me and my father were stuck there. However, as much as those memories are certain, I just don't remember the rest at all as if I'd never played those. Coming from a third world country, we had what I think was a counterfeit genesis because a lot of the consoles were not originals there, and I think the game might have been too. Is it possible that those games were edited and shortened to fit on smaller cards or something?

[@NTxC]

Huh, interesting. That would be very surprising. I'm definitely not aware of any multicarts with Fantasia on them, let alone butchered out of levels. It's possible though.

[@BenChurchill76]

One of my best friends in elementary school had this game and Castle of Illusion, and we played both. Fantasia was an example of what NOT to do compared to Castle of Illusion. We got SO frustrated with the controls and the randomness of Fantasia. There didn't seem to be a logic to it, where platforms could just randomly appear if you jumped in the right spot. So many cheap hits too. Granted, it looked pretty, but I vividly remember how frustratingly difficult and obtuse this game was.

[@NTxC]

This game is truly an enigma. Some of the design choices are straight up baffling. In the water world, there's a treasure chest that just teleports you back to the beginning of the stage lol. Amusingly odd.
