The Disney Afternoon Collection on Nintendo Switch will be arriving for fans to play on their Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on February 26, 2026, for digital download and physical copies later. This will offer a blast-from-the-past with games based on several animated series that were part of The Disney Afternoon in the 1990s. Ahead of the arrival of this collection, Disney has shared a look at what to expect. For those who lived through The Disney Afternoon era, this is a very exciting release! Check out what is coming below!

Originally, the games featured in The Disney Afternoon Collection were released by Capcom. Then, they were chosen by developer Digital Eclipse to be re-released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Now, Digital Eclipse is bringing the collection to the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. This collection includes eight games. The following Nintendo Entertainment System classics are a part of this collection:

• DuckTales (1989)
• DuckTales 2 (1993)
• Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers (1990)
• Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers 2 (1994)
• Darkwing Duck (1992)
• TaleSpin (1991)

There will also be two additional games that were a part of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System games that weren’t originally part of this collection. They include:

• Goof Troop (1993)
• Bonkers (1994)

These two games will only be available for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. Along with announcing the release date for this collection, Disney also shared some details about these classic games:

Partner For Adventure

Team up with a friend to enjoy two-player cooperative adventures in Goof Troop, where Goofy and Max explore the pirate stronghold Spoonerville Island in order to rescue Pete and PJ.

In both Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers action platform games, friends can choose to be either Chip or Dale and work together to stop Fat Cat’s nefarious plans.

Pogo To Riches

In both DuckTales games, take on the role of Scrooge McDuck, who defeats enemies by pogo-jumping on his cane, scouring the whole world for treasure to bring back to Duckburg.

Go Totally Nuts!

In Bonkers, police officer Bonkers D. Bobcat is on the case to solve crimes across Toontown, while also locating and returning the three legendary Toon Treasures after defeating a series of enemies.

Blast The Baddies

Looking for some shooting action? In TaleSpin, jump into Baloo’s plane “The Sea Duck” and maneuver through the clouds to fend off incoming enemies and avoid obstacles. Buy upgrades for the plane to increase your chances of beating the boss enemy at the end of each level.

Flap In The Night

Get dangerous with Darkwing Duck! Six of Darkwing’s greatest enemies: The Liquidator, Megavolt, Dr. Reginald Bushroot, Quackerjack, Professor Moliarty, and Wolfduck have been hired to wreak havoc throughout St. Canard.

Players must upgrade Darkwing’s Gas Gun as they complete each stage to subdue the enemy leading up to the final confrontation with Steelbeak, a member of F.O.W.L. (The Fiendish Organization for World Larceny).

Rock Out to the Soundtracks

These games have banger soundtracks, and players can experience them all in the custom music player. Listen to tracks like the “Moon Theme,” which famously made its way from the video game to the 2017 DuckTales animated series.

Peek Behind the Curtain

Explore four different behind-the-scenes exhibitions in the Gallery section. Check out the Pencil to Pixel section, which shows how Capcom’s original game artists drew inspiration from Disney animators’ sketches, or see original game ads, artwork, and even original vintage game boxes.

Rewind to Save Your Tail Feathers!

Fell in a bottomless pit? Took too many whacks from an enemy? Just press the all-new Rewind button to rewind the action of any game and try it again. Now players of all skill levels can complete these challenges.

Time Attack

Ready for a speedrun? Play through any of the six Nintendo Entertainment System games and try to set your best time, then upload your replays online and challenge your friends.

Boss Rush

Think you’ve got what it takes? Each of the six Nintendo Entertainment System games has a new mode, “Boss Rush.” Battle against every boss, one after the other, and try to set your best time taking down every Big Bad in the collection.

You can now pre-order a digital copy before February 26 for both Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2.

For Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, physical copies of The Disney Afternoon will come with a game cartridge along with two sticker sheets, eight retro milk caps, and three collectible cards. Pre-orders for a physical copy are now available and will ship at a later date.

The Disney Afternoon Collection is a perfect gateway to beloved classic video games, for anyone who wants to relive their childhood or fans who are new to these games.
