https://n4g.com/news/2416608/disney-bringing-lucasfilm-classic-games-zombies-ate-my-neighbors-and-ghoul-patrol-to-switch

One of my all-time favorite 16-bit games

---

Zombies Ate My Neighbors is great but it's impossible. I mean it's really fucking impossible so what do we do with it?

Also the screen is so small...

---

ZAMN is in my top 10 games of all time. In a way its nearly a perfect game for me. I do agree that the difficulty is absurd though. I could never beat it without cheating

I remember reading a GamePro review of Ghoul Patrol and was so hyped for it, but that was one of those games I could never find in any store or rental place so I never got to play it. People really didnt seem to enjoy that one for some reason

Not a huge fan of these collections, but Ill pick this one up

Oh shit. That's what's up.

Maybe I can FINALLY beat Zombies. I'm going off of memory but I feel like the farthest I've gotten (when I was young) was the Giant Baby level where he's walking in a courtyard type thing.

---

Honestly it feels like they should just include them in the subscription service.

I won't be buying this game, but I look forward to other people playing it. I already have it on SNES, but I don't own (or have ever played) Ghoul Patrol. Have to check that out later today.

ZAMN is one of those games that definitely needed to be released after the old timey arcade gimmicks were phased out. Games saves will definitely mean it's actually playable for non-masochists.

Yeah, because it would be playable online. Disney doesnt give a fuck though and just wants to cash in on nostalgia, like they did with the Aladdin/Lion King ports.

I always ran out of ammo and shit fighting the UFO and I'm pretty sure that's not the last level.

Finally! I just hope nintendo doesnt charge 60 bucks for it and make it available for only a 12 hour window limited to only 500 total downloads worldwide.

---

Even with save states I recall this game being hard. I'm gonna have to play some today.

If you like ZAMN, you definitely like Toe Jam & Earl (these two games really remind me of each other).

The new TJ&E remake was awesome, I was expecting something like that here tbh.

It's 99% gameplay.

The UFO shows up maybe 1/3rd into the game. ZAMN has around 60 levels.

God, that game is hard, but it's so damned great. It looks great, it sounds great, and it's funny as hell Mars needs cheerleaders!

A mad scientist unleashes monsters on the world and it's up to two teenagers to stop him

That's it

The instruction manual even admits that it's not possible to beat the game if you start from the last save point. The only way to beat the final boss is if you start 12 levels back from the end of the game. And even then you just barely have enough to stop him.
