Which retro licensed Disney game compilation is better?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I think it's time for another game compilation comparison. This time from two particular Disney game compilations I already previously reviewed. I am comparing The Disney Afternoon Collection to Disney Classic Games Collection, both developed by the same company Digital Eclipse.

The Disney Afternoon Collection
1. DuckTales
2. DuckTales 2
3. Chip & Dale
4. Chip & Dale
5. Darkwing Duck
6. Talespin

Disney Classic Games Collection
1. Disney's Aladdin (Sega Genesis, Game Boy)
2. Disney's Aladdin (SNES)
3. Disney's The Lion King (Sega Genesis, SNES and Game Boy)
4. Disney's The Jungle Book (Sega Genesis)
5. Disney's The Jungle Book (SNES)

I should point out a few major things. The Disney Afternoon Collection was essentially a spiritual successor to Mega Man Legacy Collection 1. Which also had six NES games with some similar options. Disney Classic Games Collection went through a major change with adding more games. Even without that it does three platforms rather than one.

The Disney Afternoon Collection games are also based on classic Disney cartoon shows. In vice versa, Disney Classic Games Collection actually based on classic Disney movies. Rewind is offered in both compilations. I felt achievement wise it's more proper since it covers all the games while the later doesn't. I should also point out the same company also doing TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection.

Anyway there's plenty to love here. If you came across my reviews you already know my exact thoughts on both compilations. So let's get right into it then, which Disney game compilation do I think is better? After much needed considering, I gotta say Disney Classic Games Collection. Trust me, I got a few reasons to pick it here.

For starers, even the finest The Disney Afternoon Collection offers. Fails in comparison to the finest among Disney Classic Games Collection. Like a compilation exclusive version Disney's Aladdin (Final Cut) virtually what if the team had enough time during development to fully finish the game. Back then, a lot of licensed games got rushed out quickly getting a bad name.

More recently, it's becoming rare when a licensed game actually terrible. Oh the times sure have changed indeed. Honestly, they do offer more exciting bonus content as well as features to help with your overall experiences. Yes you technically can cheat the entire achievement/trophy hunting. Despite that, you really can't go wrong with either compilation.

I would even say it could come down to nostalgia or personal taste. If you grew up heavily around those shows, you'll prefer The Disney Afternoon Collection more. If you grew up more about these classic Disney movies, you'll prefer Disney Classic Games Collection more. Personally, it's tough to compete with what this compilation offers in comparison.
