When I was a kid, during the 90s I lived what it is considered the Disney Renaissance: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Renaissance
And I was wondering if this was happening with Disney videogames as well. Some very high quality games came to my mind, like Aladdin and The Lion King for 16 bits consoles, Hercules for the PS1? And so.
Do you think there was an equivalent to Disney Renaissance un games during the 90s? And if so, what games would define it?
I think the renaissance for games started a lil later than the movies, but also lasted a little bit after with it ending with the end of the PS1 generation (some cross-gen stuff early on with PS2 too).
Games for films that are not in the renaissance like Treasure Planet and Emperors New Groove are stellar in my opinion.
I believe some games for renaissance movies were quite bad, like Pocahontas and Little Mermaid but I haven’t played them myself. I tried Beauty and the Beast some time ago and even the controls were quite bad I found the animation and graphic quality quite good.
Aladdin and Lion King were triple-A games back then, and there were also some good Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck games.
That’s why I think it started a little later than the start of the renaissance for the movies. Once you get passed some of them awkward early ones the games really hit their stride.
