Episode 78
After DuckTales became Capcom's best selling NES game EVER, they knew that more Disney games were a good idea, so they looked to the second show made for the Disney Afternoon cartoon block - Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers!
Rescue Rangers once again proved that Capcom knew how to take a licensed property, and turn it into a high quality game. Chip and Dale work as a team in the show, and in the game you can play cooperatively with a second player! Sometimes it's chaotic, but that's just part of the fun.
So how did this game get made? In this video we'll find out and then we'll dive deep into the game play where we'll learn:
* How to beat EVERY Zone, even the optional ones!
* Where to find EVERY hidden item!
* The best techniques for battling EVERY enemy!
* What the mysterious P BOTTLE does!
* How to get tons of EXTRA LIVES!
* The best way to beat EVERY BOSS... even FAT CAT himself, AND MORE!
Thanks for watching!

Mandy is indeed a human. The developers used the basic plot of season 1 episode 2 (Catteries Not Included), added some extensive artistic license and created this game. Also, the boss of stage 0 is the static electricity machine invented by Professor Nimnul in that episode.

[@wesleyoldham4222]

12:29 In the third episode, DTZ is an alien who transforms into Dale so he can vacation on earth. He's known as "the new and improved Dale" in the show 🤣

Yep. He was planning to zap the entire city with it and very nearly did!

The Capcom -Disney Afternoon Series were true gems of their time, They inspired so many platform games; past, current and future. (So many of the games we developed took heavily from the mechanics we learned from playing and studying them.)

[@marcuslarsson484]

Åååååååååå

[@niemand7811]

Kinda backwards alas those games were the only platformers you ever played. Dark Wing Duck is simply a Disney Take on Mega Man. Capcom even used one of their Mega Man builds for it. Throwing crates in Chip'N Dale wasn't new either. Many games did that way before that was released. And I might have to google it but even ther Pogo Attack in Duck Tales games wasn't new at that time.

[@ShaelRiley]

I remember, as a kid, I prized this game for its moderate difficulty level. Breezing through it with a buddy, in two-player mode, was such a chill time!

Probably the opposite of playing 2-player _Toejam & Earl._

@@edwardgaines6561 the sequel "panic on funkatron" was much more accessible and holds a place in my heart due to the many hours playing with my friends in grade school. the first tjae was way too hard and cryptic to enjoy with a friend.

This game (and its sequel) needs a Remake... like the one they gave Duck Tales a couple of years ago.

[@jackmehoff7430]

I remember when this game came out, the cartridge was so hard to get a hold of at video rentals. Finally got one, and my brother and I played the snot out of it. The co-op was rare amazing for the time.

[@alkristopher]

Hopefully you cleaned up after yourselves when you were done.

Today I finally learned what the “P” powerup did in one of my favorite games as a kid. Thanks!

[@trudownsouth8490]

This games music and graphics was iconic at the time. I have this game on my NES emulator on my laptop still playing it over 30 years later. Good upload.

[@LifeWithMatthew]

I remember finally beating Zone G as a kid and being crushed that there were three more zones to beat 🤣I never did beat Fat Cat, but I've been told that I can beat video games so maybe it should dust off that cartridge and give it another go.

[@ShaelRiley]

I owned this game as a kid! It has an excellent soundtrack.

I thought it started a little weird, but it got really good by the end, I didn't think they were ever gonna show gadget.

[@lessthankate]

The red bouncy ball used during boss fights can be caught by holding the throw button. This can be used to tear most bosses apart but especially the ones where the player can score multiple its with one throw. A star was also missed that the player gets by brushing up against one of the axes in the early part of the second half of the last stage. This game has an absurd number of hidden collectibles.

[@jwstorm]

It certainly does, and I believe there's a whopping total of 38 hidden stars located throughout the game (and a few flowers too, but only in Zone A).

[@johngavalas74]

My two favorites out of the Disney series Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers 1 and 2

[@billlyons7024]

Oh man I remember renting this game and playing with my brother all weekend.

[@johnbakasmoothhotchocolate]

I honestly like the first one more than its sequel. I wish this was on the Switch like it is on the Playstation and Xbox platforms, but I bust it out on my NES whenever I get that urge to play as Dale.

I remember renting this game on my way home from school one Friday so a friends and I could play it. He died within the first 5 minutes and tells me to keep going until I die. Like 45 minutes later I had the game beat. Was the first time I had beaten a game in one sitting, one play, first time playing.

[@d-money314]

I remember watchin the cartoon and playing the game as a kid back then

[@Lenoh]

This was absolutely my childhood. Get home from kindergarten, pop this in, and get as far as I could. Beat it one time and was so disappointed there weren't more levels.

[@shadeddreamz9063]

One of my first NES games.

[@GundamBlueDestiny]

Had to borrow this game from a friend as a kid; only Disney NES games I owned were Mickey Mousecapades, Ducktales, and Talespin.

[@nils920]

This game holds a special place in my heart. It was my introduction to the NES! My earliest memories is watching my older brother and his buddy play this game together, and I couldn't have been any older than 4 during that time. As my brother and I got older, he got less into gaming and more into tinkering with electronics and vehicles, I kept the NES and all the games he played. And this is one of them, this game was also the first NES game I was able to beat.

[@jps6869]

What a classic. I wish I had your guide back when I first played this, because I could never get past the caterpillar. You do realize that it's illegal to talk about Rescue Rangers without singing the theme song, right? I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to call Darkwing Duck on you.

[@retiredsnowbunnyhunterx5106]

Yeah me too. Especially once I learned how to play. Became a habit just to beat all the stages

[@SamtheBravesFan]

My brother and I rented this one weekend and beat it back in the day. It's one of those cartoons that I still love even now. Heck, I remember when Disney Channel had reruns in the 1990s and 2000s when I was in high school and I still watched it then. The voice work was phenomenal and the world they crafted where there was a "little" society that co-existed with the "big" society does work well. Rescuers certainly showed that and Rescue Rangers continues it. I mean, where else would you have a working flying machine with a hub made out of an empty bleach bottle? ;) The game isn't half-bad either! I played it again on the Disney Afternoon Collection on PS4 and revisited it the past couple of days. I'm better at the boss rush on Tale Spin, but it is crazy how fast people have optimized the Rescue Rangers boss rush.

[@shareofmoney]

I loved the Disney Afternoon lineup and was recently able to get the Disney Afternoon lineup games for Xbox One. Thanks for sharing this as I will give this a go.

Loved this game so much as a kid.

[@swobe33]

Uncle, Uncle, Uncle!! I've watched the majority of the UCBVG series, but now its getting real!! I lost count on how many times I begged my mom to rent this game growing up. This was my favorite cartoon show!! My first kid crush was Gadget Hackwrench and I was more of a Dale/Montery Jack kind of character. I watched every episode in the afternoon as a kid and drove my mom absolutely crazy!! This was how I learned how to use a VCR and record episodes when I wasn't home ya know, DVR? Good $h!t!!

[@derekwischmann6123]

Gadget was hot!

[@ih8stuff3]

I played the crap out of this game back in the day!

[@Frieslick]

What an absolute gem of a pick. Hardcore memberberries

[@RookMeAmadeus]

Well, I learned something today. I've beaten this game multiple times, and I never knew what that P powerup did either. I also thought it was a bottle of pepper as a kid. Honestly, kind of made sense given that the first place you saw it was in a kitchen level, and the manual doesn't even mention it exists...

[@neutraltral8757]

I learned something new, too. Without this video, I'm not sure I would have ever known that Chippendales formed in 1979. 😆

[@maysintv9168]

Oh my word, now this brings back some memories. Big Time. My next door neighbour used to own it but never got into it much, so I used to have to talk him into playing it with me cos he would NEVER lend his games out to anyone, even tho I lived right next door. And I wouldda done a trade for the time too. Not like I wouldn't giv eit back. *sigh* Ah well, now I can get a full look at everything this had to offer! YAY! Thanks for bring back more awesome memories mate. Also I hope you don't mind, but I've given you a few shoutouts on my Twitch streams recently when we've been discussing older games. I may not have a big audiance but I hope the few it does reach helps you grow some more. I'm financialy strapped AF for now, so this was the best way I thought I could help out outside of just giving you a view and a like. You deserve it mate.

[@B-T619]

Great cartoon and great game. Such nostalgia of times gone by.

[@jackwilliam4436]

What fond memories this video has brought back ! Thank you. Also, I surely can't be the only one who took advantage of the invincibility frames you get, when you use the giant ball to knock yourself out, during boss fights, can I ? If you have trouble evading an attack, just throw the ball at the boss and be sure to get in the way, as it comes back at you : it'll knock you out and you'll be invincible for a few seconds - thus avoiding damage when the boss attacks you.

[@AlgaeNymph]

Disney: Mandy lost her kitten! UCBVG: Cat trafficking out of SVU. And here I thought Gay Purr-ee was the only cartoon to touch that.

[@sammylane21]

New chip and dale rescue rangers movie just released by Disney too! Got it for the kids, watching it on the weekend.

[@Vicerion17]

This was one of the few games my little sister and I would play together growing up, she wasn't really interested in video games but this one was from a cartoon she knew and fairly easy controls plus you could be silly and pick each other up to throw at enemies or stun each other by throwing boxes at them. The only other games we played together was another NES game called Kung Fu Heroes(Which I would love to see on the channel one day as it had tons of secrets aaand I never did beat it...) and a PSOne game that for the life of me I can't remember the name of. It was a fighting game but not like SF or MK but you would fight in this big open map that you looked downish at from an angle, the characters were monsters, mutants, aliens, beasts or something and it had the cool but frustrating mechanic that some characters could fly making almost impossible to kill them unless you could too or had ranged attacks.

[@Zeiru]

I never knew you could hide inside of the Crates to KILL enemies! I beat this game way back when I was Five years old in 1990, but that's something that never occurred to me to even attempt. Thanks Kylo, Good dog!!

[@glassvial]

Had this one as a kid, great game, good run-through!

[@jwstorm]

Another great video, thanks UCBVG!!! I never knew what the "P" bottle did, so thank you for that info! By the way, it actually takes 20 stars to earn a 1-up (not 10 like the manual states). Also, I believe there are a total of 38 hidden stars located throughout the game, so there were a few of them that you missed. One is located in Zone C (on the top shelf just past the 4th Raquet Roo), and another is in the blue room in Zone G (to the left of the second Rhino Runner). I also learned that if you press A+B while on the status screen, it will give you the option of "giving up" and sacrificing one of your lives. Might not be the most useful trick, but I figured it was worth mentioning. Finally, to collect the 3 flowers on the top ledge near the end of Zone E, the only other way I've found to reach them is to stand on the box to the right of the 1-up treasure box (facing left) and then jump and get hit by a Buzzbomber to get damage boosted up to that ledge. It's really hard to time it, and definitely not worth the effort. And there's also a hidden star located up and to the right of the boss room door too.

[@SECONDQUEST]

I feel like enamel pins of our game playing pup would be awesome. Great video as always. I really enjoyed this one in the Disney collection. Duck Tales was my favorite but this game was probably the most fun as an adult.

I loved this game as a kid, it was one that didn't seem artificially difficult so you couldn't beat it during the rental period. It might be part of the reason that later games (looking at you, Lion King) started doing that :)
