RIP Alan Young 1919-2016. It was AWESOME hearing him as Scrooge in something new one last time.

[@dogebrownstonks]

actually his last Scrooge voice was in the Mickey Mouse short "No" as a small cameo.. his last words were "5 plus interest"

[@AJR-zg2py]

Yep I know LOL but Ducktales Remastered is his last significant role as Scrooge. Playing the game was like watching five or six episodes worth of dialogue.

[@dogebrownstonks]

yeah.. i always wanted a Ducktales remastered 2

[@dogebrownstonks]

The cartradge itself is rare.

[@TwilightLink77]

AJR 1986 Well Disney found Alan Young's successor.

[@10INTM]

Besides the fact they actually remade a cartoon-based game which is without precedent and figured out how to vastly improve what was already a perfect game, I STILL can't believe they managed to assemble the old cast to do the voice work all these years later. Do you guys realize Alan Young (Scrooge) and June Foray (Magica) are both almost 100!? As far as giving us fans what we want, this is probably one of the tallest orders ever filled by a game company.

Very true

[@patricianetri5030]

Why should i?

[@Rubberman202]

Canes can actually be quite an effective weapon, given that they have to be hard and sturdy enough to support the holder's weight (if they lean on it). There's even a martial art based around it, known in French as "La canne de combat".

[@EBNall]

British Bartitsu also has cane techniques,if i recall.

[@ivan_pozdeev_u]

The level is very intense, with some tricky monsters, deadly hazards and fast sequences. The theme masterfully reflects this image of a tough struggle.

[@brendamartin7280]

Ivan Pozdeev You can say that again. The treasures Scrooge collected would be taken to "Mt. Vesuvius", but with its pools of lava, undead skeleton warriors, chains hanging from ceilings and slavering demons, we all know it's hell. Just imagine Scrooge in hell looking for his treasures, then having "lost" them, it's possible that when he gets back home to Duckberg, he finds all of them in his mansion. That would've been quite an ending, don't you agree?

[@ivan_pozdeev_u]

Brenda Martin No, I don't. This would be anticlimatic. The five treasures are too much to possess, even for McDuck. Plus, they are ingredients for a hellish incantation. I'd say on the contrary, it's good Scrooge saw them being spent there and kept what is truly important instead. Besides, he's far from having come out of it empty-handed - he retained all the regular gold and gems collected in the expeditions.

[@mr.once-lermuniz7171]

I was checking out the NES longplay of Ducktales, alongside the PC longplay of this game. When I heard this music kick in, I went, "Wait a minute, that's not part of the NES version!" considering that you revisit Transylvania in the NES game. And I have to admit that this music, and the stage it's attached to, bring a whole lot to the table this time around, compared against the NES version. This, along with the remixed "Transylvania" and "The Moon" themes, are high up on my list of faves.

[@DaShonuff]

Stefano Pavone Its more appropriate since Magica De Spell actually lives on Mt. Vesuvius so it never made sense to me in the original that you would go back to Transylvania instead.

Alain Racette you don't hear me arguing, screw them and for the love of God, give both Capcom and Wayforward their due. This game was a labor of love and it shows in the witty dialogue, the wonderful graphics and the fantastic arrangements and original compositions by Jake "Virt" Kaufman. Good God did he nail everything right on the frigging money with the arrangements and with this fantastic original song he composed just for this level! I tip my hat to both of them.

[@Nickel_The_Wise]

Okay, I don't know if it's just me, but Jake tapped into a very early 90s groove beat that felt.. I don't know, very TV in a good way, right at 0:46, like this was the most thrilling episode of Ducktales and this was the final act. I don't know WHY that clicked in my brain, but it was magnificent and yet another of the hundreds of things that prove Kaufman is the MAN~! And the rest of the song kicks ass too, that crash of the gong in those first parts just feels like some big temple lit by the angry, glowing light of lava and torches!

[@luvkirby4ever]

I *clenches fist* love this level so much. I'm normally not a fan of fire levels because they tend to be boring and bland (I'm a huge sucker for the aesthetics in games) but between the awesome music, challenging (albeit incredibly fun) level design, cool lighting gimmick, and Glomgold's glorious sass, this is my favorite level in the game. Not to mention that the reprise of this song during the final chase sequence is a great touch.

Mt. Vesuvius is an all-new level exclusively in the remastered version. In previous versions of the game, the final level was Transylvania, void of any treasures or friendly NPCs.

The original NES game had only the 5 stages with the treasures, so there was no Money Bin or Mount Vesuvius levels in the game. Instead once you've completed the 5 stages, you do Transylvania again, with the last boss being Dracula Duck. Funny thing is you have to visit Transylvania at least 3 times in the original game, 1st to clear the level itself, 2nd to find the key to the African Mines (not in the remaster) and 3rd to finish the game. So I'm glad they changed it up a bit.
