If you want your nostalgia fix, this is the last train to Duckburg, as Capcom will be removing DuckTales: Remastered from sale on digital storefronts. You have until August 8th to grab the game, before licenses expire, and Capcom delists the game from Steam, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii U. DuckTales: Remastered is currently 75%, starting today, so that fans can buy the game cheap before they lose the chance to do so, forever. If you own the game already, or grabbed it during this sale, you'll be able to keep it and re-download it even after it's been pulled, and of course, any physical releases of the game will still function as well.

Well, if they're out of stock, yeah, you can't buy them.
That's what I meant with that.
Once all copies are sold and the publisher/distributor (forgot which one) can't or won't make new copies... how do you get the game again?
You could find it on second hand market or old stock, but there's no guarantee that you could find it.

And I said SIMILAR, I didn't say it was the same.

but you can...I can literally buy any game made physical right now on the internet.....

engage with reality

Is it available for Xbox One?
I see it for Xbox 360....

It might be.

Some are very cost prohibitive, but yea, you can still at least get them if you want it bad enough.

yes it is BC

if I bought digital it would only be from MS as they care about BC

The master listing says it works with Xbone, but when you click See Price it says that bit about Download to Xbox 360. I am assuming it'll work.

I remember this game didn't work on my PC (ran 100%), because it couldn't run correctly on a quad core of or something.

Well i would buy it if it was on PS4 but it's only PS3 and i can't access steam from the hospital, so i can't get the pc version, So, i will play the NES version again on an emulator on PC or the bittboy

 

[WiiHomebrew+Snes]

On digital games it'd be nice if they did it the same way they used to with DVDs where you can get a physical copy with a digital code (or before that I think they even had discs a digital copy included). Games do cost more than movies but still it's not really a big deal and nobody's going to buy a digital and a physical anyway (unless they pull a crapcom and release digital first and physical later > )

 

[UltraSUPRA]

This is why I almost always go for a "physical or piracy" route.

 

[Mythical]

This game is selling like hot cakes right now. Not my kind of game (too old, and no nostalgia for me), but cool that they're putting it on sale

Tony Hawk's Underground 2 for PC (needed for THUGPRO)

 

[Jayro]

It's on sale right now on steam for just a few dollars.

"Warning: For PC version, the game-breaking issue is still there since its release date.
During the final boss fight, the game will freeze, thus making you unable to finish the game and this issue is still not fixed."
"There is a fix: set CPU affinity to one single core (on Win10 Task Manager open the Details tab and find the ducktales process) and skip the related cutscene. Please enjoy the boss fight."

Shortsighted licensing agreements like this push people to piracy

licensing agreements push people to piracy period

In the sense that Disney probably don't have a dev team in house they could assign this to and thus the game would not have existed, its existence then pushing some people towards piracy (I am pretty good at this piracy lark but I have never yet managed to pirate a game that does not exist, and I have not heard of anybody else pulling that off either*), then sure.

*back in my schoolboy days there was a guy who has an uncle that works for Nintendo that managed to play a game we had made up on the spot but that probably does not count.

 

[tbb043]

I have it on disc, delist that, fuckos!

 

[PoiRan]

Nice game, my kids (5 and 7) have played it a lot. I got a version from somewhere (can't remember really) and then bought it on steam sale. I also have it on the Wii U. My kids have finished the game numerous times, I can't remember it crashing. I have AMD GPU.

Other remasters worth buying are Castle of Illusion, if available still it will surely disappear again eventually.

I'm prepared to buy other games similar to this, but difficult to find on the PC. My kids play old versions on wii emulators.

 

[Humanity]

Had the launch copy on pc (warez ver) and played through the whole game fine. Tom mentioned an nvidia gpu, I had an amd gpu so thats probably why I had no problems.

Having the inferior brand GPU actually came in handy for you. Nice.

Oh, I loved that on the Game Boy and never played the remaster. I'll grab the PS3 version before it's too late, thanks for the reminder.

It will never be too late, if you know what I mean.

The way you are doing it costs more, too.

Piracy and emulation are often the only way to play certain games that are no longer available. In these cases I don't feel bad about resorting to piracy.

It's the same with old music that's never been reissued etc.

As for this game, it wasn't expensive and I don't have a hacked PS3. I bought the cheap ass Super Slim model after my original PS3 died. I could probably use HAN on it, but I haven't bothered trying that yet.

Doesn't Cobra ODE work on Super Slim? I am sure that it does.

Or is Cobra ODE strictly only helping people play disc-based games?

I just had a quick look. Cobra ODE would work on the Super Slim and plays homebrew and backup images but the chip isn't that cheap and I know nothing about soldering, so even more costs for that. I don't think it's worth the effort for me.

Who knows, maybe a better solution will pop up one day.
