    Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King is a delightful collection for two of the greats of their generation.

    This is an essential entry into the greater view of video game history and I’m so happy that a collection like this exists.

    Overall, this is a great package of some excellent games from the 16-bit era. While I personally believe that the Genesis version of Aladdin is much better than the one seen on the Super Nintendo, the Disney Classic Games collection could’ve used the Super Nintendo version of Aladdin to make this feel more like a complete package. However, the art gallery, quick-save features, and added extras such as the final cut of Aladdin solidify this collection as the definitive way to experience these games. It would certainly be great to have more Disney compilations following this.

    This is a fantastic collection of fantastic games. Most of them have aged quite well, and all the extras included are just incredible –a true treasure for the video game industry. However, some absences like SNES Aladdin are hard to justify.

    Disney Classic Games: Aladdin And The Lion King is a collection for current-gen machines of the action platform games so popular in mid 90s. The museum sections offers some sweet fan-service, together with a good amount of value for nostalgic players and Disney lovers.

    Aladdin and The Lion King is a well-thought compilation : with only two games (plus some of their handheld variations), Nighthawk put so much extra content to please fans of both the movies and the games : interviews, guide books taken from the movies... We wish we would have more games to play, but the intention is really there.

    While Aladdin got a fairly decent treatment in the Disney Classic Games port, The Lion King is left just as barebones and hard as the original.

Aladdin was alright but it still had a flaw where the fire pits were to big to jump across completely where I would jump right when I get to the fire but still fall onto the fire pit a few times.… Expand
