Classic childhood games

As reported by Eurogamer, there are multiple versions of the games coming out in the new collection, including:

  • Disney’s Aladdin – Demo Version: Sega Mega Drive
  • Disney’s Aladdin – Final Cut: Sega Mega Drive
  • Disney’s Aladdin – Japanese Version: Sega Mega Drive
  • Disney’s Aladdin: SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Sega MegaDrive
  • Disney The Lion King – Japanese Version: Sega Mega Drive
  • Disney The Lion King: SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Sega MegaDrive
  • Disney The Jungle Book: SNES, Game Boy, Sega Mega Drive

There have been changes – you can skip and rewind the games (which comes in handy in some of these!). And while they’ve retained the classic 16-bit look for all the nostalgic feels, the visuals have been cleaned up for a better playing experience. There’s also more music and behind-the-scenes content included.
