Electric Shadow

Ducktales Remastered

One of the best games made for the NES is coming back with pretty new HD graphics, and allegedly features the original gameplay entirely intact. From PA Report:

The original NES masterpiece was crafted by a super group of game designers and creators, including Keiji Inafune, character designer of Mega Man and producer of Lost Planet and Dead Rising. Yoshihiro Sakaguchi composed the game's music, which is not being replaced in the remastered version. Instead, it will be updated by developer WayForward. Likewise, the game's visuals have received an overhaul.

Characters will be hand-drawn in 2D, while the world is 3D, but Capcom promised the game will play “just like you remember.”

It had impressive level design, balance, and mechanics that have very rarely been approached. Combine that with the massive goodwill from love of the cartoon, and that made for a monster hit. It's still a little weird for me that I've not just once, but now have twice interviewed the casting and voice director behind the TV show, Andrea Romano (The New Radio Theatre, Queen of Gotham).

The new version will run about $15 USD. Sounds about right to me.
