/vr/ - Retro Games

No, a lot of parts are just hard because of the awful hitbox detection and floaty physics.
Mickey's sprite is very weird (he's like too horizontally broad, making his hitbox prone to get a lot of damage and hard to avoid).
The part where the skeletons expode is a good example of this, you need mostly luck to evade those.
I remember beating this game as a kid but yeah, most of the difficulty comes from the hitbox thing.

SNES version is worse/harder:

Fuck me, that's the version I've been playing. Should burn me the Sega CD version instead.

Rabbit Rampage is pissing me off right now too. Maybe I'm just shit at games with large sprites in general...

>>4039096
They are wrong about the SNES missing one song, it's actually in the game rom, it just never gets used.

>Why is this so hard?

Large sprites, floaty controls, awful hitboxes, and occasionally cheap level design. The SNES version makes these issues worse by cropping the screen. It's a very pretty game but it's just okay as far as platformers go.

>Am I just shit/impatient?

I mean you're on 4chan so probably. But that's an unrelated issue.

>>4039106
Try the Playstation version (Mickey's Wild Adventure).

>>4039084
>unironically playing Disney games
found the issue

>>4039223
But Capcom and Sega's Disney games are pretty damn good.

>>4039084
Man, this game's so good-lookin'.

>>4039165

Why does it look like Mickey just got away with a murder and he's already plotting his next one?

>>4039223
>he disparages Castle of Illusion, Quackshot and World of Illusion

>>4039273
>I've already found him
>teleports behind you
>nothing personel pal
>throws marble at you

Great tier:
Disney's Magical Quest series
World of Illusion
QuackShot

Good tier:
Goof Troop
Mickey's Great Adventure in Tokyo Disneyland
Castle of Illusion
Donald Duck Magical Hat

Looks great, doesn't play as good:
Cold Shadow
Mickey Mania

Shit tier:
Fantasia
Goofy's Hysterical History Tour
Mickey's Ultimate Challenge

Why do people always forget the best mickey mouse game ever made?

>>4039095
>you need mostly luck to evade those.
no you don't you fucking pleb, this place is stock full of useless shit i swear.

>>4039084
yes you are shit and dumb as with basic logic and memory you can build a way through no problem.

>>4039368
>Hurr I'm better than you at children's games.
Look, I beat Mickey Mania when I was 9, kiddo, no need to exert yourself.

>>4039315
>he forgot DuckTales

>>4039376
I was restraining myself to 16 bits home consoles.

>>4039223
how you know he's not playing it all ironic? Could have the douchey moustache and a polaroid for screenshots and everything. You don't know

>>4039315
How could you possibly put Quackshot above Goof Troop and Castle of Illusion?
I ain't even mad, I'm just curious. They're all good games but I'd definitely shuffle that order around a bit.

>>4039421
How is that strange? Quackshot even has a better score than Goof Troop and Castle of Illusion.
And I thinking people would complain about my preference on the Magical Quest series instead.

>>4039386
O-okay.

>>4039421
Quackshot has top graphics, top atmosphere, the best music ever, and it's a somewhat challenging and entertaining game... What else do you want?

>>4039095
How can you bitch about these things? The hitbox doesn't magically change. Get fucking good.

That said, OP, play the Genesis version.

>>4039637
The real OTP is the Playstation version that had its name changed to Mickey's Wild Adventures.

>>4039368
>>4039637
Hey, memester, saying memes won't make you right.
The game has hideous hitboxes, the level design is a mess, Mickey's hitbox is a fucking rectangle.
It's fine if you have nostalgia for it, I like its graphics and music too, and the concept of going through various eras of Mickey, but the game isn't good, it's mediocre at most, and actually kind of bad.
And yes, I played the Sega MD version.

The best Disney game is Epic Mickey.

>>4039757
>wah wah wah it's soooooo hard shit game shit game shiiii gaaamme the hitboxes aren't faaaaaaaaaair it's bad because I suuuuuuck
Cry more, fagtron. I could beat it when I was 8, I can beat it now. You've been playing vidya all your life and yet you have less coordination than a literal child.

G I T

>>4039789
>shit game
Why do you put words that I didn't say? Desperate much? I can feel the desperation coming from all these ad-hominem.
Wait, I never said I couldn't beat it. I also beat it when I was 8 (or so, we must be around the same age).
It still is badly designed, the oversized rectangular hitbox doesn't help, and the erratic enemy patterns make it feel as it the game is always about to glitch out.
It's not "hard"; it's badly designed.
Play some real good Mickey games like Castle of Illusion or The Magical Quest and you'll see the difference in gameplay and level design.

>>4039347
But, anon, this is the best Mickey Mouse game ever made

>>4039793
>muh hitbox
>the enemy actions are random I swear
Holee fuck how many excuses for your shit playing are you going to make? You are literally saying that Micky's hitbox isn't tiny enough to make everything super easy and that the enemy patterns aren't stupid simple enough.

LMFAO

>>4039802
Look, I get it, you are hurt because I'm making a critic of a game you loved as a kid. But start acting like an adult anon.

>>4039802
>You are literally saying that Micky's hitbox isn't tiny enough

No, it's just retarded because Mickey is leaning and results in a rectangular hitbox, like the other anon said. It could be a bit sprite but make Mickey stand straight, like in every other Mickey game.

>>4039804
>GROW UP ANON
>I WIN BECAUSE I'M ALWAYS RIGHT AND YOU MIGHT HAVE ACCURATELY SUMMED UP MY CHILDISH COMPLAINTS BUT YOU'RE WROOONG GROW UP ANON AD HOMINEMEMEMEME

You're a fucking idiot and I'm ridiculing you!

>>4039807
>this hitbox isn't standing the way I arbitrarily want it to
>THEREFORE IT'S BAD
>I HATE RECTANGLES THEY KILLED MY MOM

>>4039804
>>4039807
why are you falling for the bait. you should've just ignored him from the beginning he started to get on his period for no reason. seriously. I think they made a sega genesis version of this? the one where you start off as classic mickey. that's the only one I've played.

Woah, Mickey Mania fans sure are fanatical.
Didn't know this game caused so much passion, I liked it back then but yeah the gameplay was kind of mediocre.

>>4039816
It's just one guy sperging out. Most people agree that it's visually good but gameplay/design is a C- at most.

>>4039814
>>4039816
>not me guise

Playstation had an extra level

>>4039824
Stop, you'll make the Mickey Mania fanboy that likes the Sega Genesis version a lot angry.

>>4039825
>dat analpain
Joke's on you, I posted >>4039824
There's some blood tricking from the seat of your pants, bucko.

>>4039836
it's okay, anon, you win, Mickey Mania best game ever. Sega and Capcom? Pfft. Can't stand a chance besides Traveller's tale.

>>4039838
>maybe if I completely ignore his actual objections to my ridiculous complaints and instead fabricate some claims that were never said then I won't look like a total moronic tool who bitched that a hitbox made the game so hard for me that I cried on 4chan about it

>>4039856
>fabricate some claims that were never said
Very funny because that's what you did before saying people here said they couldn't beat the game. Nobody said that.

>>4039856
Be honest, do you think the hitbox detection in this game is good? It doesn't have to do with "easy" or "hard", just answer my question without memes: Do you think this game has good hitbox detection and good level design?

Why does Mickey uses marbles as ammo in this game? Is it based in any of Mickey's cartoons? I don't remember him throwing marbles around.

>>4039859
>just answer my question without memes

>>4039865
Needed some sorta weapon. Big companies didn't think about quality and video games together back in the 90s

>>4039865
What else could he use? Apples?

>>4039884
he could use stuff he used in the actual cartoons, like in the Magical Quest games. Or just something more creative, marbles seem kind of generic.

>>4039886
>Magical Quest
Wait, what? I don't recall any cartoons where mickey dresses as a genie or a peter pan lookalike.

>now he's complaining about marbles

>>4039891
>genie
My bad, the game where Mickey had a genie is Magical Quest 3

>>4039891
Look up Alpine Cimber (1936), not sure about the genie/turbant Mickey but there's many times Mickey does magic.

>>4039643
The Sega CD version is better than the PSX one (but it's still a shot game).

>>4039901
The soundtrack is much inferior in my opinion
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMzHf_U58-k

>>4039901
I don't know about that, the Playstation is more colorful and has a few more enemies on the screen.

>>4039801
This guy knows his 16 bit mickey

>>4039914
Any difference in the animations?

>>4040008
Not that I can tell.
