#SuperOldGameSaturday - World of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse & Donald Duck (Sega Genesis)
2Originally Recorded/Aired on Friday, December 30th, 2022
For the final episode of 2022 for #SuperOldGameSaturday, Inhuretnakht and DollyFinn were back for a bit of a Sega Genesis celebration, headlined by Inhuretnakht and I giving a full play/30th anniversary celebration of Sega's World of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse & Donald Duck. Released soon after Capcom's The Magical Quest for Super Nintendo, this was Sega's magic-themed Mickey Mouse game that was the third game in the great Illusion series that Inhuretnakht and I played together growing up and we did that again here in its unique co-op campaign, followed by plays of the single player campaigns for Mickey and Donald to show all of this game's levels of a great game that COULD be an unofficial prequel to Kingdom Hearts, given its many references to other Disney properties, Mickey and Donald are honing their magic skills in this and that the director of this game went on to produce every Kingdom Hearts game. The chat was also adding a lot to this play and, since we used the Sega Genesis Mini 1 for this play, we also gave brief looks at some of the games they wanted to see and that we'll do at a later date, namely, Eternal Champions (requested by Despina417), Contra Hard Corps (requested by ElecVerse), Dynamite Headdy (requested by DollyFinn), Genesis Tetris (requested by no one, but worth showing off still) and Landstalker (which I want to do in the future). We had a great time going through all of these games while reliving our memories and insights on each and making new ones while, topic-wise, we covered the gamut on this great program. I can't thank my guests and chat enough for this and every show we did in 2022 and I can't wait to keep this show going strong in 2023. Hope you enjoy this show (and if you like what you see here, stop by https://www.twitch.tv/captainditrag every Saturday at 7 PM EST to see these streams live and join/help drive the conversations on what we play each week)!
