Nice box art, but I still don;t know if I want it. SMW is the worst of the three Mario cartoons, and the third season of Capt. N wasn't much to write back home about.

And really? Is there any call for Sonic Under Ground. And with a CD of their horrible caterwauling with offkey bad animaniacs impressions? No there wasn't.
I recal reading they were thinking about releasing Donkey Kong Country as a DVD (to go with the other Nintendo toons) but some company who refused to release it on DVD is clinging on to the rights like a freaking greedy child.

On BETTER DVD News...

Ducktales Volume 3

Talespin Vol 2

Eh.. I dunno.
Sure they were some 'lesser' shows in ways (Capt. N Season 3's animation change being the biggest thing, IMO), but I still liked them.

As for that Donkey Kong Country news, hadn't heard about it being planned for DVD. But would be nice to have that happen too.

Yeah, I still liked them, and I will buy them... but Sonic Underground... I tried to watch that, and it wasn't terrible until they started singing.

I found out about the DKC thing because I found out Shout had a message board. Someone was disgussing the possibility of it, and one of the head honchos said they were trying it, but the license is with someone who has no plans to release it. Not saying DKC was the greatest, but I did enjoy it when it was on FOX Kids....

Well, somewhat I guess. The songs were okay (I didn't mind them too much), and was a good show.


That stinks on the legal trouble.
I saw all of DKC when it was on Fox Family. And was good as well (the song segments it had were rather humorus; like the show itself).

SU is abysmal, it has some redeeming values (and it's theme song is vastly underrated), but Gary Chalk's Robotnik is typical Gary Chalk, and the songs are just stupendously grating. There's even one episode where they have a near patriotic duet that makes them look like campaign musicians for the Bush administration.

It's already been released in the UK as a whole box set.

The Theme song rocked my socks off.... too bad the show didn't measure up to it. I saw 3 episodes due to the fact I was cureous and bought the Sonic the Hedgehog Christmas special. Which also sucked.
