I got this game in a lot with Kirbys Dream and Rad Racer and wasn't sure what to expect. Surprisingly this is a solid NES game. You really can't seem to go wrong in buying a Capcom game for Nintendo, and this game was no exception. It does bare resmemblance to Mega Man both in graphics and gameplay. Darkwing Duck is equipped with a gun of unlimited ammo and can use his cape as a shield against enemies. Like Mega Man it's a lot of jumping on platforms, and you can change your weapons in a sub screen. The graphics are actually really good for NES and will remind you again of Mega Man. There are 7 levels with a boss in each one. The bosses aren't that tough and you can use unlimited continues to restart any level you die on. This is good but the tradeoff is if you shut the game off you have to start over from the beginning. So you'd have to beat the game in one sitting as there are no passwords for later play. It wouldn't be fair to compare this game to Megaman, or to even call it a knock off of it. On it's own it's a great game and it's actually pretty challenging for a kids game. However, seeing how there's only 7 levels and unlimited continues the serious gamer could probably blow right through this game. Either way gameplay and graphics won't let you down on this one.

By far, my FAVORITE of the Disney games that Capcom has made. Also plays similar to Capcom's biggest franchise, Mega Man. Highly recommended!
