* OvershadowedByControversy: Historically speaking, as it has since become a blip on the radar, but when ''The Lion King'' was first released, Compaq made a deal with Disney to ship the game with a new computer line of theirs. Unfortunately, said new computer line also used a new video card with a new graphics driver that was completely untested with the game or the [=WinG=] API it used. [[GameBreakingBug Said setup caused blue screens when attempting to boot the game.]] Whoops. Needless to say, this generated a ton of bad PR for all parties involved, a lot of understandable anger and distrust among consumers, and is a large part of what led to the creation of [=DirectX=] to ensure this would never happen again. [[note]]This story is sometimes erroneously associated with the [[VideoGame/TheLionKing 1994 tie-in platform game]], but this story precedes the release of its Windows version by two years.[[/note]]

*** The first page for Sid's room is mostly spooky as in the movie...[[MoodWhiplash unless you click on the boombox]]. Suddenly, disco lights and disco music come on and Buzz starts breaking it down in the middle of the room until Woody turns the boombox back off and tells Buzz to knock it off in a deadpan tone, with Buzz sheepishly apologizing afterward.

* SidetrackedByTheGoldSaucer: ''Hercules'' features a game of checkers at three difficulty levels that you can play against Hades or one of your friends, with commentary from Pain and Panic when pieces are captured. It's so addictive you can forget about the rest of the game.

* SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames: This series usually stood toe-to-toe with ''VideoGame/LivingBooks'' in terms of quality. Of course, when you have Disney animators assisting in development, it's no surprise. Interestingly enough, Media Station, the primary developer of the series, is looked at unfavorably by ''Living Books'' fans for their entry in that series, ''[[Literature/{{Arthur}} D.W. the Picky Eater]]''.

** Much of the later entries also got much better in the animation and art department as well, thanks to the efforts of Disney artists and animators.



* HilariousInHindsight: In ''Toy Story'', one click point in Pizza Planet leads to Buzz busting a few moves to an upbeat version of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" (most well known for its use in the opening of ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey''). Three years later, we'd see him hopping across platforms to this same exact tune in the FakeOutOpening of ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2''.
