More info. This is the "new Capcom compilation" that Digital Eclipse was working on. It's not a remaster so the feel of the games should be preserved.

The compilation doesn't include HD-ified graphics or remastered music—which might be good news for anybody who thinks the 2013 Duck Tales remaster was a little lacking. Also, the wizards at Digital Eclipse, who handled the top-notch Mega Man Collection for modern consoles, do not appear to be slacking on their latest Capcom release. For starters, every game in the Disney Afternoon Collection will include an optional "rewind" button so that players can turn back time whenever the original games' brutal difficulty or checkpoint systems stymie their progress. Meanwhile, new "time attack" and "boss attack" modes will let diehard players test their skills and climb online leaderboards (with the rewind option disabled, naturally).

Just like that Mega Man comp, this collection will also include a treasure trove of additional vault content, including "concept art, sketches, music, and other fun extras." That stuff is fun, but we're more interested in Digital Eclipse once again flexing its retro-archival muscles in preserving the code and feel of NES hardware gaming on modern platforms. The comp is slated to launch on April 18 for $19.99.
