Story Breakdown: Goof Troop & Bonkers (Super NES & Genesis)

One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

This week brings the release of Disney+, the newest streaming platform vying for your money. A lot of people are excited to see new shows set in the Marvel and Star Wars universe, but I'm probably most eager to go back in time and revisit the archive of Disney Afternoon classics, like DuckTales, Rescue Rangers and TaleSpin. To help celebrate the launch of Disney+, I wanted to take a look at two lesser-known Disney Afternoon games on 16-bit systems. Turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to spoil the story and ending for both Bonkers and Goof Troop. This is Game Over: The Early Years.


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!

And while you're just clicking on stuff at random, I suggest you head over to the Defunct Games YouTube page and subscribe to the channel. We're posting new episodes of Game Over: The Early Years every Monday, along with brand new game reviews throughout the week.
