History NoProblemWithLicensedGames / Disney

* ''Piglet's Big Game'' for the UsefulNotes/{{PS2}}, UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance and UsefulNotes/GameCube, while being very simple in terms of gameplay, has a nice and fairly original story, great sound effects, the original voice actors and an ''awesome'' visual style. It even manages to deliver a few genuinely creepy moments - as far as ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'' games go, anyway. And the game might not be as good as Piglet's Big Game, but ''VideoGame/WinnieThePoohsRumblyTumblyAdventure'' can definitely hold up as a decent successor with its similar playstyle.

* ''[[VideoGame/{{QuackShot}} QuackShot Starring Donald Duck]]'' was just as good. Featuring WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck in an ''Franchise/IndianaJones'' inspired hunt for treasure.

* The ''VideoGame/{{Darkwing Duck|Capcom}}'' UsefulNotes/{{NES}} game was a ''VideoGame/MegaMan''-inspired scrolling shooter. It was really good. It occurred towards the end of the NES's lifespan so the graphics were good, especially those of the characters. The controls were responsive and precise, the music ranged from inoffensive to good, and the only real complaint with the game was the [[NintendoHard nastily difficult]] last level.
** The UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16 game by Interactive Designs, however, belongs on [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames the other page]].

* Then there's ''[[Franchise/WinnieThePooh Tigger's Honey Hunt]]'' for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation and UsefulNotes/Nintendo64, which actually manages to be a solid platformer; it's clear that the developers went the extra mile. It's a rather short game, but the music is amazingly good and the graphics are nice too.

* The [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation PS1]] and PC ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'' video game. It followed the story of the film really well, has a lot of humor, and really great gameplay, that played almost all the powers and abilites of the hero. Really good cartoon graphics, and a great platformer with lots and lots of secrets, plus some "rush levels" that were, though hard, really interesting. It is an extremely good game, as it puts a lot of the movie, plus a lot of great gameplay and levels, for the player to enjoy. It was even released on the UsefulNotes/{{PSN}} on March 8, 2011.

* ''VideoGame/TheNightmareBeforeChristmasThePumpkinKing'' for the [[UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance GBA]] has good gameplay, gorgeous visuals, and a story that actually makes sense, especially since it's a prequel for [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas the movie]].
** ''[[VideoGame/TheNightmareBeforeChristmasOogiesRevenge Oogie's Revenge]]'' is a UsefulNotes/{{PS2}} sequel to the movie. Excellent plot, SceneryPorn like you wouldn't believe, excellent voice acting and character models, the ability to attack [[KarmaHoudini Lock, Shock, and Barrel]], and decent remakes of most of the songs. And a game engine with similarities to ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry''. Albeit, fighting's a bit repetitive, and the camera can be very cruel in certain levels, but it's not bad if you're a big fan of the movie.

* ''Piglet's Big Game'' for the UsefulNotes/{{PS2}}, UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance and UsefulNotes/GameCube, while being very simple in terms of gameplay, has a nice and fairly original story, great sound effects, the original voice actors and an ''awesome'' visual style. It even manages to deliver a few genuinely creepy moments - as far as ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'' games go, anyway. And the game might not be as good as Piglet's Big Game, but ''VideoGame/WinnieThePoohsRumblyTumblyAdventure'' can definitely hold up as a decent successor with its similar playstyle.
** The PC / Mac version is another story, as the game is too easy even for young children (all Piglet does is get ingredients for a soup).
* ''[[VideoGame/CastleOfIllusion Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse]]'' was one of the best games of its day, its 8-bit versions for UsefulNotes/GameGear and [[UsefulNotes/SegaMasterSystem Master System]] equally impressive, and the sequel ''VideoGame/WorldOfIllusion'' was even better.
* ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' for iOS/Android - completely different from the subpar UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}[=/=][[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS 3DS]] game - is a very enjoyable collection of arcade-style minigames, including the ''Fix-It Felix Jr.'' arcade seen in the movie.
* ''VideoGame/KinectDisneylandAdventures'' also fits the bill. Although the fact that it uses Kinect makes it debatable for some—although the remaster renders it optional—this game does have the feel of [[Ride/{{Disneyland}} the famous park]] and [[Creator/{{Disney}} the company's]] characters down to a T. That and it's also an ''[[WideOpenSandbox open world]]'' Kinect game, with a decent (if a bit cumbersome) control system that actually makes it work, helping to make it stand out as one of the better-rated games for the sensor.

* Based on the [[WesternAnimation/AliceInWonderland 1951 version]], [[VideoGame/WaltDisneysAliceInWonderland Alice In Wonderland]] for the ''UsefulNotes/GameBoyColor'' was a well-received platformer that follows the movie and characters to the letter, featuring impressive graphics and spritework for the Game Boy, among them several [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt scene and character art]] from the movie that translated very well, with only the games' sound quality being regarded as a weak point.

* A Creator/{{Disney}}-themed skateboarding game sounds like a recipe for disaster, but ''VideoGame/DisneysExtremeSkateAdventure'' manages to be surprisingly solid game by itself while serving as a good entry point for young and old beginners to the ''VideoGame/TonyHawksProSkater'' series. It treats the source materials used (''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'') with a good deal of respect and includes multiple playable characters from all three movies. The game controls are simplified versions of those in ''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater'' without feeling like they've been totally dumbed down, making the game easy for a series beginner to pick up and play, while also giving the player the option to upgrade to the standard ''Pro Skater'' controls as they get better at the game. All in all, the game makes the ridiculous-sounding premise work and offers something for everyone, whether they're a Disney fan or a skateboarding fan looking to get into the ''Pro Skater'' series.

** There were also three UsefulNotes/{{Intellivision}} games that were all solid performers. They were varying levels of NintendoHard (and provide some {{Funny Aneurysm Moment}}s), but are still surprisingly playable. Music/DaftPunk cheerfully used samples of the sound effects from them in Legacy's soundtrack.

* ''VideoGame/DisneysKimPossibleWhatsTheSwitch'' and ''VideoGame/DisneysKimPossible3TeamPossible'' are quite fun games. The first is Kim's only console game for whatever reason, but it praised by the fanbase (and may also be helped by the fact that you get to play as Shego). The latter is a sidescroller, a rather good one at that.

* Based on the [[WesternAnimation/AliceInWonderland 1951 version]], [[VideoGame/WaltDisneysAliceInWonderland Alice In Wonderland]] for the ''UsefulNotes/GameBoyColor'' was a pretty solid platformer that follows the movie and characters to the letter, featuring excellent graphics, animation, and graphic shots from the movie that translated very well to the Game Boy.

* ''[[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King]]'' for the [[UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance GBA]] has good gameplay, gorgeous visuals, and a story that actually makes sense, especially since it's a prequel for the movie.

** ''[=DuckTales=]: Remastered'' received good reception, despite the show being cancelled for almost 20 years.

* ''VideoGame/EpicMickey''. Creator/{{Disney}} fandom plus nostalgia plus DoingItForTheArt plus [[TheBusCameBack the grand return of]] WesternAnimation/OswaldTheLuckyRabbit equals a hell of a game. The sequel, however, didn't fare nearly as well, and resulted in the closing of the game's development studio.

* ''VideoGame/MickeysSpeedwayUSA'' is a kart racing game for the UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 made by Creator/{{Rareware}}, which is well known for many high quality games on the Nintendo 64 including licensed titles (they made ''VideoGame/{{GoldenEye|1997}}'', which is also considered a classic), so it's no surprise they did a good job with this one. It's basically just like VideoGame/MarioKart with WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse and his friends.

** And ''3.0'' adds ''Franchise/StarWars'' characters, from the original trilogy to ''Film/TheForceAwakens'', making it a huge, three-way box of fun. Plus, now there's farming, instant access to toys, more items, and best of all, more Disney originals.
* ''VideoGame/DisneyMagicalWorld'' for the [[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS 3DS]] is a fun and pretty game where you help various Creator/{{Disney}} characters and some NPS. It's a fun SimulationGame and even got a sequel in 2015.

* ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' for iOS/Android - completely different from the subpar UsefulNotes/{{Wii}}[=/=][[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS 3DS]] game - is a very enjoyable collection of arcade-style minigames, including the ''Fix-It Felix Jr.'' arcade seen in the movie.

* The ''VideoGame/ToyStory3'' video game has gotten surprisingly good reviews. Both because it's a solid platformer and because its Toy Box mode offers a level of customization and exploration that you would normally find in [[WideOpenSandbox sandbox]] games. The games of the previous two movies (''VideoGame/ToyStory'' on UsefulNotes/{{SNES}} and [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Genesis]] and ''VideoGame/ToyStory2'' on PC, UsefulNotes/PlayStation, UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 and UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast) were developed by Creator/TravellersTales, and weren't too shabby either.

The games of the previous two movies (''VideoGame/ToyStory'' on UsefulNotes/{{SNES}} and [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Genesis]] and ''VideoGame/ToyStory2'' on PC, UsefulNotes/PlayStation, UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 and UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast) were developed by Creator/TravellersTales, and weren't too shabby either.

** Similarly, ''VideoGame/TheIncrediblesRiseOfTheUnderminer'' was an excellent game. Designed to be co-op but still playable solo, the player gets to play as either Mr. Incredible or Frozone as they smash through armies of robots, bosses, and eventually the Underminer himself, featuring an intriguing story and loads of side missions and ways to level up. While the main game is fairly short, its replay value is immense, and both of the main characters are used to their fullest.

** Somehow even a '''flash game''' made by Creator/{{Disney}} is highly beloved. Such is the case with ''625 Sandwich Stacker''. The simple yet addictive gameplay makes it very easy to hop in and out of rounds for a high score. It's also highly beloved with many of the people that played it as kids looking back on it fondly.

** The [[Creator/VirginRecords Virgin Interactive]] games were made in partnership with the actual Creator/{{Disney}} Studios. The Disney animators designed the sprites for them and applied TheTwelvePrinciplesOfAnimation. ''[[VideoGame/AladdinCapcom Aladdin]]'' was the final game in which Creator/{{Capcom}} held the Creator/{{Nintendo}} license for, so while UsefulNotes/{{SNES}} owners missed out on this version of ''Aladdin'', Virgin was able to release the same basic version of ''VideoGame/TheLionKing'' for both consoles, although for some reason, the Genesis version had more multi-plane scrolling in the backrounds.

* ''Film/G-Force'' videogame is much better than the movie itself. It's a badass third person action game where you are fighting against hordes of horrible machines using high-tech gadgets and a huge arsenal of deadly weapons. It's amazing game in which developers putted more effort. Sometimes you wonder how a mediocre movie could get so such cool game.

* ''VideoGame/TheLionKing'' video game (at least for the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}, UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis and MS-DOS, the UsefulNotes/{{NES}} version and arguably the [[UsefulNotes/GameBoy GB]] version belong on [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames the other list]]) by Creator/WestwoodStudios is a well-remembered game too, despite the second level's [[NintendoHard notorious difficulty]]. To drive the point home, one of co-producers of this game admitted that very few of the people ''who worked on the game'' could actually beat it, and actually expressed delight that all of two people in the room he was talking to actually ''had''.

** ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaidIIReturnToTheSea The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy]]'' for the UsefulNotes/GameBoyColor is a very fun {{pinball}} game. It has two big beautiful tables, one is based on the first movie and one is based on the second, and they contain lots of fun minigames in addition to the really nice tables. In fact it's probably one of the best pinball games on either UsefulNotes/GameBoy, period.

* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb: Across the Second Dimension'' for UsefulNotes/{{Wii}} and UsefulNotes/PlayStation Move is a pretty decent game. It takes place during the part in the movie where they are traveling through each dimension, and it's pretty fun. Sure, the 3D models are quite low-res for UsefulNotes/{{PS3}} standards, and it doesn't utilize the PS Move's capabilities that well, but it's a decent and enjoyable game, and highly recommended for all ''Phineas and Ferb'' fans.

* The ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'' video game has gotten surprisingly good reviews. Both because it's a solid platformer and because its Toy Box mode offers a level of customization and exploration that you would normally find in [[WideOpenSandbox sandbox]] games. The games of the previous two movies (''VideoGame/ToyStory'' on UsefulNotes/{{SNES}} and [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Genesis]] and ''VideoGame/ToyStory2'' on PC[=/=]UsefulNotes/PlayStation[=/=]UsefulNotes/Nintendo64[=/]UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast) were developed by Creator/TravellersTales, and weren't too shabby either.
** Saying the video game adaptation of ''VideoGame/ToyStory2'' wasn't shabby would be selling it short (especially the [=PS1=] version). You cannot fault its catchy music, solid platforming, and well designed levels.
** The popularity and success of the ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'' game would lead to a large chunk of it being reused for ''VideoGame/DisneyInfinity'', which also became equally as successful if not more because of it (at least for a while).

** ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMansChest Dead Man's Chest]]'' for the GBA has numerous islands, a detailed (and [[ScrappyMechanic timed]]) overworld with ship-to-ship combat [[note]]thankfully, not ''[[ShipToShipCombat that]]'' [[ShipToShipCombat kind]][[/note]] (although the sloops are quite fast, making the battles against them [[NintendoHard quite hard]]), weapon and ship upgrades, tons of awesome attacks, and secrets. There is a ''ton'' of treasure, much of which powers you up once you get it (although the Statue of Ehecatl is kind of a letdown, because you have to get the body, legs, and head, and there is another treasure that does the same thing as it.)
* The [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation PS1]] and PC ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'' video game. It followed the story of the film really well, has a lot of humor, and really great gameplay, that played almost all the powers and abilites of the hero.

* The [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Genesis]] and UsefulNotes/SuperNES versions of ''VideoGame/{{Pinocchio}}''. A fairly [[NoSidepathsNoExplorationNoFreedom linear]] platformer with a SimonSaysMinigame early on, but it becomes a very fun platformer, and even lets you fight and kill [[KarmaHoudini the Coachman]].

* ''[[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King]]'' for the GBA has good gameplay, gorgeous visuals, and a story that actually makes sense, especially since it's a prequel for the movie.

* The first ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' game, published by Bethesda, was actually a very good pirate game. Which is because it wasn't a film adaptation at all but a sequel to an earlier game, ''Sea Dogs'', that Bethesda bought the publishing rights to and [[DolledUpInstallment hastily retooled]] into a ''POTC'' themed game, resulting in a product that, apart from the opening narration voiced by Creator/KeiraKnightley and the Black Pearl being the boss, has almost nothing to do with the film. However, it was [[ObviousBeta fairly buggy]].
** ''Dead Man's Chest'' for the GBA has numerous islands, a detailed (and [[ScrappyMechanic timed]]) overworld with ship-to-ship combat [[note]]thankfully, not ''[[ShipToShipCombat that]]'' [[ShipToShipCombat kind]][[/note]] (although the sloops are quite fast, making the battles against them [[NintendoHard quite hard]]), weapon and ship upgrades, tons of awesome attacks, and secrets.

Excellent plot, SceneryPorn like you wouldn't believe, excellent voice acting and character models, the ability to attack [[KarmaHoudini Lock, Shock, and Barrel]], and decent remakes of most of the songs. And a game engine with similarities to ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry''.

* ''Piglet's Big Game'' for the [=PS2=], Game Boy Advance and Gamecube, while being very simple in terms of gameplay, has a nice and fairly original story, great sound effects, the original voice actors and an ''awesome'' visual style. It even manages to deliver a few genuinely creepy moments - as far as ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'' games go, anyway. And the game might not be as good as Piglet's Big Game, but ''VideoGame/WinnieThePoohsRumblyTumblyAdventure'' can definitely hold up as a decent successor with its similar playstyle.

* ''[[VideoGame/{{QuackShot}} QuackShot Starring Donald Duck]]'' (1991) was just as good. Featuring WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck in an ''Franchise/IndianaJones'' inspired hunt for treasure.
* ''The Jungle Book: Groove Party'' on the original UsefulNotes/PlayStation was an enjoyable RhythmGame (despite being extremely short and fairly easy) with some good songs and a power-up system that adds a surprising amount of depth to the gameplay at times.

* ''VideoGame/MickeysSpeedwayUSA'' is a kart racing game for the UsefulNotes/Nintendo64 made by Creator/{{Rareware}}, which is well known for many high quality games on the Nintendo 64 including licensed titles (they made ''VideoGame/{{GoldenEye|1997}}'', which is also considered a classic), so it's no surprise they did a good job with this one.

* The PC and PSX ''Hercules'' video game. It followed the story of the film really well, has a lot of humor, and really great gameplay, that played almost all the powers and abilites of the hero. Really good cartoon graphics, and a great platformer with lots and lots of secrets, plus some "rush levels" that were, though hard, really interesting. It is an extremely good game, as it puts a lot of the movie, plus a lot of great gameplay and levels, for the player to enjoy. It was even released in the UsefulNotes/PlayStationNetwork on March 8, 2011.
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'' game for the Nintendo 64, [=PlayStation=] and PC is a really fun platformer with various difficulty settings based on the levels. The version for the Game Boy Color is also really good, having gameplay similar to that of the ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'' games and boasting a very good music score that's sampled, and thus of better quality than the average GBC game's music, graphics that have been said to be similar to 16-bit games, and a ''very'' good [=FMV=] that starts off the game.

** ''[[VideoGame/TheNightmareBeforeChristmasOogiesRevenge Oogie's Revenge]]'' is a [=PS2=] sequel to the movie. Excellent plot, SceneryPorn like you wouldn't believe, excellent voice acting and character models, the ability to attack [[KarmaHoudini Lock, Shock, and Barrel]], and decent remakes of most of the songs.

* ''VideoGame/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' is considered the gold standard to which other co-op platformers are judged and is the first in line to be remastered if ''VideoGame/DuckTales'' is followed up on. Its little known sequel [[EvenBetterSequel took what was already great and improved it in every possible way]].

* ''VideoGame/DuckTales'' is still considered one of the best NES games ever, and is the first of a (potential) line of remastered NES Creator/{{Disney}}[=/=]Creator/{{Capcom}} games.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' received an excellent action-platformer for the Sega Genesis. The game featured eleven stages, and its plot revolved around the "Eye of Odin", an ArtifactOfDoom created by the Vikings. The Eye of Odin would later be [[CanonImmigrant introduced to the animated series]], but significantly altered [[InNameOnly both in appearance and origin]]. ''Gargoyles'' featured hand-drawn sprites for Goliath, Demona and the Vikings, and rendered graphics for robotic enemies like the Steel Clan. The game's only flaw - if one can call it that - is that it is very, ''very'' [[NintendoHard difficult]].

* ''VideoGame/TheIncredibles'' video game on [=PS2=], [=GameCube=], and Xbox is a pretty fun action game with some pretty challenging moments as well as unlockables, a wide variety of levels, and multiple styles of play. Granted, it's [[IncrediblyLamePun incredibly]] short (it can only be beaten in around 4 hours or so), Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl's original voice actors don't return, and Frozone is not playable, but it's still worth a playthrough.

* ''VideoGame/TheJungleBookGrooveParty'' on the original [=PlayStation=] was an enjoyable RhythmGame (despite being extremely short and fairly easy) with some good songs and a power-up system that adds a surprising amount of depth to the gameplay at times.
** [[VideoGame/TheJungleBook The 1994 game]] by [[Creator/VirginRecords Virgin]] is a cherished classic, especially the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis version. Like Virgin's other licensed Disney games, it is a fun, polished platformer with sprites resembling the movie. It helps that that game was delayed from its intended holiday 1993 release to about six months later to give the developers the time they needed to iron out the game's programming problems, averting the ChristmasRushed trope.

* ''VideoGame/TheLionKing'' video game (at least for the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}, UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis and MS-DOS, the UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertanimentSystem version and arguably the [[UsefulNotes/GameBoy GB]] version belong on [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames the other list]]) by Creator/WestwoodStudios is a well-remembered game too, despite the second level's [[NintendoHard notorious difficulty]].

* Capcom's ''VideoGame/TheLittleMermaid'' on the NES was pretty enjoyable, and was enjoyed by [[PeripheryDemographic some boys who didn't care for the mushiness of the movie]].
** ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaidIIReturnToTheSea The Little Mermaid II: Pinball Frenzy]]'' for the Game Boy Color is a very fun {{pinball}} game. It has two big beautiful tables, one is based on the first movie and one is based on the second, and they contain lots of fun minigames in addition to the really nice tables. In fact it's probably one of the best pinball games on either Game Boy, period.
* The ''VideoGame/{{Darkwing Duck|Capcom}}'' NES game was a ''VideoGame/MegaMan''-inspired scrolling shooter. It was really good. It occurred towards the end of the NES's lifespan so the graphics were good, especially those of the characters. The controls were responsive and precise, the music ranged from inoffensive to good, and the only real complaint with the game was the [[NintendoHard nastily difficult]] last level.

* ''VideoGame/MickeyMania'' for the SNES, Sega Genesis, Sega CD, and [=PlayStation=] was also very highly regarded, though [[NintendoHard rather notorious for its difficulty]]. The CD version in particular has some gorgeous graphics, high quality music, and more sound bites, making it the definitive version.
* Then there's ''[[Franchise/WinnieThePooh Tigger's Honey Hunt]]'' for the [=PlayStation=] and UsefulNotes/Nintendo64, which actually manages to be a solid platformer; it's clear that the developers went the extra mile. It's a rather short game, but the music is amazingly good and the graphics are nice too.

* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb: Across the Second Dimension'' for Wii and Playstation Move is a pretty decent game. It takes place during the part in the movie where they are traveling through each dimension, and it's pretty fun. Sure, the 3D models are quite low-res for [=PS3=] standards, and it doesn't utilize the PS Move's capabilities that well, but it's a decent and enjoyable game, and highly recommended for all ''Phineas and Ferb'' fans.

* ''VideoGame/DisneyInfinity'' takes what you love about games like ''VideoGame/{{Skylanders}}'' and ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', and adds the brilliant Disney magic to the mix. Each Play Set works well enough to be its own game, and the Toy Box mode lets you use your creativity with the stuff you unlocked while playing, to make extremely fun games and amazing worlds to explore.

* ''VideoGame/DisneyMagicalWorld'' for the 3DS is a fun and pretty game where you help various Creator/{{Disney}} characters and some NPS. It's a fun SimulationGame and even got a sequel in 2015.
* ''VideoGame/DonaldDuckGoinQuackers'' (also known as ''Quack Attack'') by Creator/{{Ubisoft}}. The gameplay was really good; but while the music of the first versions (Dreamcast, Nintendo 64, and PC) was [[SoOkayItsAverage OK]], the music from the UsefulNotes/Playstation version proved to be [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic really awesome]] and truly fitting for the game's cartoony style, and it was also used for the [=PS2=] and [=GameCube=] remakes.
* ''VideoGame/DonaldInMauiMallard'' made the duck into a gun-wielding detective who has ninja abilities and goes into a far darker and violent adventure than the ones seen in its fellow Disney games. What could go so wrong turned out to be incredibly radical, with competent gameplay, [[SceneryPorn beautiful levels]], and great music by Michael Giacchino.

** [[VideoGame/TheJungleBook The 1994 game]] by Virgin is a cherished classic, especially the UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis version. Like Virgin's other licensed Disney games, it is a fun, polished platformer with sprites resembling the movie. It helps that that game was delayed from its intended holiday 1993 release to about six months later to give the developers the time they needed to iron out the game's programming problems, averting the ChristmasRushed trope.
* ''Lilo & Stitch''[='=]s [[VideoGame/LiloAndStitchGameBoyAdvance Game Boy Advance tie-in]] is considered to be the best video game in [[Franchise/LiloAndStitch that franchise]], with quality ''VideoGame/MetalSlug''-inspired RunAndGun gameplay in Stitch's main levels, good {{stealth|BasedGame}} PuzzlePlatformer gameplay in Lilo's levels, bright graphics and good animation. Tellingly, the game was so good that the tie-in game for ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' (''VideoGame/LiloAndStitch2HamstervielHavoc'') based itself on that game, adding some changes and refinements.
** Somehow even a '''flash game''' made by Disney is highly beloved. Such is the case with ''625 Sandwich Stacker''. The simple yet addictive gameplay makes it very easy to hop in and out of rounds for a high score. It's also highly beloved with many of the people that played it as kids looking back on it fondly.
* ''VideoGame/TheLionKing'' video game (at least for the SNES, Sega Genesis and MS-DOS, the NES version and arguably the GB version belong on [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames the other list]]) by Westwood Studios is a well-remembered game too, despite the second level's [[NintendoHard notorious difficulty]]. To drive the point home, one of co-producers of this game admitted that very few of the people ''who worked on the game'' could actually beat it, and actually expressed delight that all of two people in the room he was talking to actually ''had''.
** The Virgin interactive games were made in partnership with the actual Disney Studios. The Disney animators designed the sprites for them and applied TheTwelvePrinciplesOfAnimation. Aladdin was the final game in which Capcom held the Nintendo license for, so while SNES owners missed out on this version of Aladdin, Virgin was able to release the same basic version of the Lion King for both consoles, although for some reason, the Genesis version had more multi-plane scrolling in the backrounds.

Disney tends to have some of the better licensed games, although they are also known for often being quite [[NintendoHard difficult]]:

* There are two completely distinct ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' games, [[VideoGame/AladdinCapcom one by]] Creator/{{Capcom}} (released on SNES and Game Boy Advance) and [[VideoGame/AladdinVirginGames one by Virgin]] (released on Genesis/Mega Drive and PC) -- and ''both'' of them are good. It helps that the latter game gets notoriously NintendoHard during the escape from the Cave of Wonders and thereafter, while still remaining quite fun. The latter game also has a strong adherence to the film's story, hand-drawn animations from Disney's own studio, and another wonderful Music/TommyTallarico soundtrack, all of which contributed towards ''Aladdin'' being the Genesis' third most successful game with 4 million copies sold.[[note]]Only the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 first]] [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 two]] ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' titles were more successful.[[/note]]

* ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife'' also had a pretty good licensed game (though this only applies to the home console versions; the GBC game is more along the lines of [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames the other page]]) - it was a level-based 3D platformer with above-average graphics, good music, and nice level design. It helps that it was developed by Creator/TravellersTales, who also handled ''Toy Story 2''.

* ''VideoGame/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' is considered the gold standard to which other co-op platformers are judged and is the first in line to be remastered if ''[=DuckTales=]'' is followed up on. Its little known sequel [[EvenBetterSequel took what was already great and improved it in every possible way]].

* A Disney-themed skateboarding game sounds like a recipe for disaster, but ''VideoGame/DisneysExtremeSkateAdventure'' manages to be surprisingly solid game by itself while serving as a good entry point for young and old beginners to the ''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater'' series. It treats the source materials used (''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'') with a good deal of respect and includes multiple playable characters from all three movies. The game controls are simplified versions of those in ''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater'' without feeling like they've been totally dumbed down, making the game easy for a series beginner to pick up and play, while also giving the player the option to upgrade to the standard ''Pro Skater'' controls as they get better at the game. All in all, the game makes the ridiculous-sounding premise work and offers something for everyone, whether they're a Disney fan or a skateboarding fan looking to get into the ''Pro Skater'' series.

* The ''VideoGame/DisneysMagicalQuest'' trilogy is another beloved trio of classics starring Mickey Mouse. The first game was good, Mickey gets to obtain new outfits that give him unique abilities, and it has nice music, too. The second game drops the turn-based two player in favor of two-player co-op and lets you choose to play as Minnie as well. And in the third game, Minnie is replaced with Donald, who now has unique abilities, you get to play a more interactive co-op, and it's also considered the best game of the trilogy.

* ''VideoGame/DisneyMagicalWorld'' for the 3DS is a fun and pretty game where you help various Disney characters and some NPS. It's a fun SimulationGame and even got a sequel in 2015.

* ''VideoGame/DuckTales'' is still considered one of the best NES games ever, and is the first of a (potential) line of remastered NES Disney/Capcom games.
