For anybody who watched it on Disney Afternoons or saw reruns on Family Channel, Duck Tales was one of the best cartoons of the late 1980s early 1990s. Duck Tales was soo good that it even got a game made by Capcom, which is just as acclaimed. While I personally have never played Duck Tales for the NES, I have heard many good things about Scrooge McDuck's adventure into games. If Duck Tales ever released for the Wii or 3DS Virtual Console, I would buy it immediately as I have wanted to play it for a long while. I along with many other gamers would accept a sequel made by Warren Spector and his team at Junction Point in place of releasing Duck Tales for NES.
One of my personal favourite parts of the Duck Tales cartoon is the theme song. Instantly iconic and easy to sing along with, the Duck Tales theme song is quite possibly the best cartoon theme song of all-time. When Duck Tales was turned into a game for the NES, that meant Capcom had to alter the theme song to work on the musically limited NES. So Capcom stripped away the lyrics and made an 8-bit version of the Duck Tales that is just as recognizable and just as good. It might not have the lyrics, but you will be definitely be dancing to the infectious beat and possibly singing the lyrics yourself. No matter if you watched it back on Disney Afternoons, caught reruns during the late 90s or have just been introduced to Duck Tales just now in 2012, it is a cartoon that has stood the test of time. Just like Duck Tales' theme has stood the test of time in it's many forms.
