Duck Tales, Oo-oo




Im still filling my flat with crap from the 80s. Im getting a pretty large collection of old Nes games from Ebay. Duck tales arrived in the post the other day and it is a classic. You stroll around as Scrooge McDuck who in spite of all his billions wants to stroll around such dangerous places as the amazon armed only with his cane which he uses as a weapon, tool and pogo stick.

This game was hugely successful and the morale of the story kids is that even if your a billionaire its ok to go out and kill a few tribes and steal their gold. Happy hunting, im off to the Himalayas to steal the lost Crown of Genghis Khan.
