After nearly nine years of waiting, nostalgic gamers finally have reason to celebrate. The Disney Afternoon Collection is officially headed to Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2, bringing classic Capcom platformers back into the spotlight with exciting new additions.

Official Confirmation and Release Details

The collection appeared in the Japanese eShop with a confirmed release date of February 26, 2026. Priced at ¥2070 (approximately $13-15) in Japan, North American gamers can expect pricing around $15-20. Developer Digital Eclipse has enhanced this re-release with two exclusive SNES titles that weren’t included in the original 2017 version.

Complete Game Lineup

The collection features eight beloved Disney-licensed games from the 90s era:

  • DuckTales and DuckTales 2 (treasure-hunting adventures with Scrooge McDuck)
  • Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers and Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers 2 (co-op chipmunk action)
  • Darkwing Duck (superhero platforming excitement)
  • TaleSpin (aerial adventures with Baloo)
  • Bonkers (SNES exclusive bonus)
  • Goof Troop (SNES exclusive, co-designed by Shinji Mikami of Resident Evil fame)

Modern Gaming Features

Digital Eclipse packed this collection with quality-of-life improvements for contemporary players. The rewind function lets newcomers undo mistakes, while quick save options provide convenient checkpoints. Competitive gamers will appreciate Boss Rush and Time Attack modes featuring online leaderboards, though these extras don’t apply to the SNES titles. A Museum mode showcases concept art, music tracks, and behind-the-scenes Disney content. Visual enhancements include CRT filters for authentic retro aesthetics.

The ESRB rated the collection E for Everyone, noting mild fantasy violence and tobacco use. Perfect for portable gaming sessions, this Disney Afternoon Collection represents one of Capcom’s finest licensing achievements from the NES era.
