A quick guide and demonstration on how to access a secret bonus stage in DuckTales, for the Nintendo Entertainment System. This requires playing one of several levels in DuckTales, where Launchpad McQuack is present. Namely, Amazon, African Mines and The Moon. Normally, Launchpad acts as an option to leave that level. Under specific circumstances however, you can further add to Scrooge McDuck's bounty before leaving.

To get the secret bonus stage in DuckTales, you must the number '7' in any digit of your current score when talking to Launchpad. Agree to leave as normal, and you will be first transported to a sky-themed stage. Gyro Gearloose will drop large diamonds worth 10'000 points each, which adds to your current score and subtotal. Launchpad will appear shortly, who will take you to the main hub and score tally. As you cannot replay a level after completing it, this is a good way to rack up a large subtotal for DuckTales' best ending.

Although you can't die during DuckTales' bonus stage, falling down a pit or getting crushed, will automatically end it. Not only that, any money attained in both the special stage and preceding level, will not be added to your subtotal. Launchpad can also only be used once per level, so your chance to retry it will also be gone.

No matter which level you access this bonus stage from, it will always be this one. A little disappointing perhaps, but it's better then nothing. Accessing this bonus stage three times in one playthrough, should net you around $300'000 towards your subtotal. It should be noted however, that losing a life does not take away any money gained from that level. Unless you don't mind intentionally losing a life, this can also be exploited for maximum gain.
