The Disney Afternoon Collection is a perfect conversion of the originals, so if you are a fan of super hard retro gaming, this will be right up your street. For everyone else, the pure, unadulterated gameplay that goes into these titles should be the main hook.

An amazing collection of games that really taps into your nostalgia and is definitely worth downloading. Every game delivers charm, fun and at times a challenge graphically the 8bit charm is on maximum an the music throughout is sublime

It's a good package of entertaining games, and is presented beautifully, but it's also not essential.

The Disney Afternoon Collection is an object lesson for how game compilations should be developed, providing rock-solid adaptation to a new platform, respecting the material's historic context, and exercising restraint. It's one hell of a collection with great visuals, rich extras and challenging time attack modes.

A ticket back in time, this collection will unfuzz memories of days where pixels weren't stylistic, and theme songs were the catchiest.

The quality of The Disney Afternoon Collection port could be better, so as the suggested price. However, the six games that were chosen for this compilation are excellent, representing the best of their time. It's a collection suitable for kids and, above all, longtime fans.

The Disney Afternoon Collection is a set of old school games packed with new secrets, rewind and pause mechanics while retaining their classic charm. This collection serves the purpose of going down the memory lane and playing some cult classics games that are hard to find and play legitimately.

For $19.99, The Disney Afternoon Collection is a tad steep, but these games tend to fetch much higher prices individually on a NES cart. Capcom did go through the effort of boss rush and time attack modes to make them somewhat more enticing for people who might just emulate these, so there is some effort here. The real draw of this compilation is the nostalgia they exude to transport the user to a simpler time, or for gamer parents to share something from their childhood with their own children. It is very likely that one day when the license expires, Capcom and Disney will have to remove The Disney Afternoon Collection from PSN and Xbox Live, so anyone with even a passing interest with these games really should consider downloading them. With the exception of TailSpin, the games here have aged pretty well and show why Capcom has been around for so long.

Aside from the framerate issues, The Disney Afternoon Collection is overall a very pleasant experience and a worthwhile purchase for anyone looking for a taste of nostalgia.

All in all, The Disney Afternoon Collection is a solid, well-made and dependable collection of some fun, old-school games. You get a lot of content for $20, and the presentation is quite nice. The games are almost untouched except for some minor Boss Rush features and a rewind button. Younger gamers might not be nostalgic for these games, but for anyone who remembers rushing home after school to catch the latest episode of their favorite show, this is a trip worth taking.

This is an excellent representation of what made these games so beloved and enjoyed, not to mention frustrating for gamers.

The Disney Afteroon Collection is an act of faith, but also a dip in the nostalgia of the '80s and' 90s. Only one half of the products present in the collection, however, deserves to be gnawed to the bottom, but the inclusion of rewind and time trial allow you to have rewarding and pleasant solutions of gameplay.

The Disney Afternoon Collection is a fine assortment of NES Disney Classics. None of these games reach the pinnacle of 8-bit greatness, but they're all enjoyable.

For $19.99, you're getting four stellar games, one OK game, and one game probably not worth playing, except for only once, so you can say you've played it.

In the end, regardless of the varying degrees of innovation, The Disney Afternoon Collection still represents some of the most treasured third party titles of yesteryear, and solid proof that not every licensed game should turn out to be disappointing garbage. That's a lesson today's developers should learn, just as this collection should be checked out by nostalgic adults and curious kids alike.

This flashback collection hits right in the nostalgia, with good reason. The games have stood the test of time and come out victorious, with a few minor hiccups along the way. Capcom includes a great set of extras including Time Attack and Boss mode and music and art galleries for the enthusiast.

A great collection of games that are only improved further by the rewind feature.
