Ducktales Remastered Being De-Listed August 8th
- Thread starter ManaByte
- Start date
Relax, man. These aren't companies who need to uphold a 24 hour shipping policy. I wouldn't start worrying unless you haven't heard from them in 1-2 weeks.
Wow this has been on my Steam wish list forever. Thanks for the heads up. I promise to play it too.
I got this game years ago on Steam but never played it...
That Mickey Mouse remake also got delisted but Sega bothered to undo that.

It's a fantastic game, and is a steal at $3 on Steam.
It's being removed because the license Capcom and Disney is expiring.
Whats this about the Steam version crashing/freezing at the end? Wonder if I should buy the 360 or Steam version?
It's not just used copies. All the copies manufactured and sent to retail will still keep in circulation, unless they're specifically recalled. That's how you sometimes get batches of shrinkwrapped, brand new condition copies of games that have gone out of print ages ago.
And yes actually, sometimes even the manufacturer or pub will keep some copies around and can still sell them to you, because they're not tied down by digital licensing agreements when it comes to physical copies.
Yep same here.
Dang it. I wasn't able to enter Xbox's site til this morning and now I'm paying the price.
I just bought it via Xbox.com for $3.74, specifically from this page, without issue:
Keep in mind that if you have credit on your account, it's not accepted by the old Marketplace; you would need to buy it via the console itself. But I know they've had a bunch of issues over the last few days.

Oh huh, I see.
EDIT: uh, but it says August 8th in the tweet and blogpost?
Might want to clarify that with your team because that's two different dates.
Also, quick question. First, I absolutely appreciate that you guys gave us a warning, especially with the sale. It always sucks when there is no warning whatsoever. Just curious is there is any reason why this new comes some close to the delisting date, whichever it is? Nearly caused me to miss the news, if I hadn't happened to check twitter.
Does the Tweet mean it's being completely delisted like unavailable to even redownload it like PT on the PS4? I'm upgrading my PC soon so I wasn't planning on downloading it yet.
I'm reading it as it's not avilable to buy after august 9th. I don't see any reason to believe it can't be downloaded.
It's just a delisting. Apparently they did confirm you can redownload it though.
Typically that's the case, but yeah.
It is definitely frightening that that used to be a given but recently it seems to not be working correctly such as with DOOM or some Telltale games. It's a worrying trend. I mean at very least people ought to be able to redownload what they own, especially with infrastructures like steam and xbl. There should be no excuse.
So yeah, I have noticed that worrying trend, but this one sounds safe.
It is a tiny game however, so it definitely couldn't hurt to be safe.
"Put yer back into it, McDuck!"
Was holding out hope that both this and Double Dragon Neon would eventually make it to the Switch, but alas...
Still a fantastic game, folks. Buy it while you can.

I really enjoyed this one. Was hoping they'd continue this by either making a new sequel or giving DT2 the same treatment in the same style, but alas.
Checked to see if I owned it on any of the consoles. I did, redownloaded the WiiU version but didn't have enough space for the update, lol. Well I'll figure that out once they shut down that part of the eshop and I have to make backups of everything.

This implies that nobody has bought any games released on or prior to 2013 this year.
Gonna call BS on that lol.
Bought it. I believe this was one of the games that inspired the shoval Knight team. I should have picked this up earlier as SK is an all timer.
Hi there - yes, the Twitter has only so much space so it's elaborated further in the linked blog post. The intent of the "starting August 8th" was to point out that certain platform/stores, such is the case here with Xbox Store will remove DT:R from their store on August 8th at around 5pm pacific. Either way, if anyone's still interested in the game I recommend not waiting until the last minute :) As for the reason for delisting; sorry, I can't get into that.
I bought the physical version for PS3, it was a pin and a game code in the case. I have the Disney Afternoon Collection on PS4 and Steam and picked up Ducktales remastered on Steam for like 3.50 for the same of making sure I have it because I am a Ducktales and Disney nerd
Over a million? Wow I had no idea it did that well. That has to be by far the most successful a game has been that I worked on.

wow a million copies?! they should have let wayforward make a darkwing game after that
After futzing around with the PS3's online status for awhile, I finally got it downloaded. I definitely want to play it again.
Oh I understand explaining the delisting reason is probably difficult for you for any number of reasons. That's understandable. I was asking if there was a reason the warning was so last minute. That said, if this was the best you were allowed to do, I do sincerely appreciate that. It's frustrating to me when companies like Warner Brothers will just drop a game with no information at all. The more warning (such as Microsoft and Sony have done with things like Forza and Driveclub) the better.
Bought it from Steam for $3.75 - easy purchase for me because of the original VA and great times with the NES game!
One of the best soundtracks ever in a game. Plus, the game itself is wonderful. Grab it while you can.
