Yup there was a Duck Tales 2, and for those that did play it, how was it? I read that it didn't offer anything new but wasn't all that bad.

I'm personally thinking of playing DT2 in preperation for the HD remake releasing later this year.
 
It was last NES game I bought back in the 90s. I think it was a great game. I don't remember all that much but that's not due lack of quality, I just have a bad memory. It had great variety of levels and you had that sense of adventure that not many games offered. And hunting map pieces was actually tons of fun.
 
Duck Tales! Ooo-oo! Na-na-na-na-ta-na-na-na.

It was one of the few western cartoons available here in Russia. I don't care much for the original games, but I'm tied to the franchise for life.
 
I have the gameboy version and played it a few years ago. It was pretty forgettable, to be honest.

Yeah the GB ver. wasn't as good as the NES from what I've gathered.

I loved the first one, I had no idea they made a sequel.........why wasn't it widely available?

The 2nd game was released during the last legs of the NES in 1993-94 which is a reason why not many knew of its existence.

Both games were released when NES was basically dead. SNES had been on market for some time and NES mania was fading so I guess there was little to none reason to have market campaign behind the games.
 
I hope this gets remade at some point
Outside of Duck Tales, which I'll always remember as one of my fondest game-Disney tie ins, and perhaps one of the most unforgettable NES games, I'd die a happy man if they made a Gummi Bears game. Would have been epic what with the juicing, the bouncing, the "Toady" and who could forget the music? Could be platforming bliss :)

I'm pretty sure the original was released a year before the SNES, but yeah the second was dropped on the market at the tail end of the NES's life. I do remember it getting decent reviews, but I've never seen or played it.

It and Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2 are some of the last good NES games.
 
A friend had this when I was growing up. I played it once or twice and remember it being alright. Looking back I wish i spent more time with it when I was over but they had Mega Man 2 and Mario 3 man. Kid Priorities.
 
I have a copy and I will say is better than the first game (secret maps, pogo upgrades, bonus stage). I'm always surprised that the Internet doesn't seem to remember it.

I have it! And actually, it's even better than the first game (!), so it's odd that it's so often forgotten.
There was a sequel to Rescue Rangers too, right?
 
DuckTales 2(and Rescue Rangers 2) is a textbook example of how much catchy music can enhance your gaming experience.

There isn't anything inherently worse about DuckTales 2, gameplay or design wise. But that music is so damn boring.
