Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers is another NES game that really reminds me of my childhood. Besides liking the game, I remember hurrying home from school to watch this on television. This game is extremely simple. It doesn't have the challenge of Darkwing Duck or the music of Duck Tales. What I like about it is the art and level design.

Immediately I notice how happy and pretty everything is. I mean, you either play as Chip or Dale. You're a cute chipmunk. How could that not be great? The first enemies you come across are nice, large sprites of robot dogs. Then to fight them, you pick up things like boxes and apples to throw. This definitely didn't change the way games were made or played, but it's a fantastic Disney platformer with terrific art.

If only there really would be a Chip 'n Dale MMORPG.
