DVD Review: Disney's DUCKTALES WOO-OO

Being a huge fan of the original series, I had my doubts about this reboot. But after watching the Disney XD premiere I became a fan of this new series. Fans of the current series can now watch the series’ first DVD release, Ducktales: Woo-oo!

This DVD features the premiere double-length episode event, Woo-oo!, and a few shorts as bonus features. I would have loved to see additional full episodes as part of this release but this will do for now.

The animation style of the new series is reminiscent of the original Carl Barks comics in terms of color schemes and comic textures. There are also a ton of Easter eggs that pay homage to the original series.

The most noticeable difference from the original series is that Huey, Dewey, and Louie have distinct personalities. Webby is also an essential part of the team as she is sort of a McDuck historian. Scrooge and Launchpad are essentially the same as in the original series. Donald Duck is here for the majority of the adventures this time around. Mrs. Beakley serves as both a housekeeper and a bodyguard, and the loyal butler Duckworth, isn't here in this new series or at least not yet.

This special begins when Huey, Dewey and Louie discover that their uncle is the one and only trillionaire treasure hunter Scrooge McDuck. Sadly, Scrooge hasn't been on an adventure in years. The nephews along with Webby stir up some supernatural trouble in the mansion and this leads everyone to find the lost city of Atlantis. In the end, they discover that family is the greatest adventure of all. 

Bonus Features

Welcome to Duckburg Shorts

• Meet Donald (1:02)
• Meet Scrooge (0:32)
• Meet Huey (0:32)
• Meet Webby (0:32)
• Meet Launchpad (0:47)
• Meet Mrs. Beakley (0:32)

Conclusion

The reboot of DuckTales is wonderful taking visual and style cues from the original comic book source and the original animated series while still being its own series. Hopefully this first DVD release, while short on content, is still a worthy release and hopefully the first of many.

DuckTales: Remastered Duckmentary 1 - Concept art, character design from WayForward & Capcom

Visit http://www.InsideTheMagic.net for more about DuckTales: Remastered!

Capcom released this very first Duckumentary video, which goes behind the scenes with the developers at WayForward to create DuckTales: Remastered. The series of videos (beginning today and released every other week until the game's launch) chronicles the creative process of bringing back Scrooge McDuck and one of the most cherished 8-bit titles of all time to current generation gaming platforms.

DuckTales Remastered video game trailer & sing-along

At PAX East 2013 Capcom announced they are remaking the classic 1989 "DuckTales" video game with all new artwork, sounds, music, and original character voices.

They're calling it "DuckTales Remastered" to be released in summer 2013.

Taking its cue from the Disney cartoon series of the same name, "DuckTales Remastered" follows the adventures of Scrooge McDuck as he explores differently themed worlds to collect their treasures and become the world's richest duck. Other popular characters to be featured in the game include Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webbigail, the Beagle Boys, and Magica De Spell, among many more.

Original Disney Character Voices talent, including some from the cartoon TV series, bring in-game characters to life with charm and wit, while the classic melodies of the original soundtrack are given a modern twist. "DuckTales Remastered" has seen the development team take the levels and layout from the original 1989 release as a foundation before expanding upon them to significantly enhance the gameplay experience but where this update truly impresses is its graphics and sound. All of the visuals from the 8-bit game have been beautifully re-created as hand-drawn and animated sprites, across a backdrop of luscious, re-envisioned level backgrounds. Further additions to the original include an all new tutorial level where players can get familiar with the iconic pogo jump and cane swing, while Scrooge McDuck's Museum allows players to track all their stats and compare their progress with others via global leaderboards.

 A Disney Interactive licensed property, "DuckTales Remastered" is being developed for Capcom by WayForward and is scheduled for release digitally on Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U this summer.
