This bravado is not without apt timing, of course, as the publisher is gearing up for the release of Ben 10: Alien Force in February. Expect mediocre reviews for the game and a hefty profit margin for D3 -- behold the power of a licensed IP.

BOTH games you just named are, in fact, still awesome.

I found the hidden characters in every level of Ducktales... oh the memories. While Mario 3, Crystalis, Zelda 1&2, Lolo, Ninja Gaiden and other classics of that era have created lasting legacies within the gamer community, I still have a special place in my heart for every PoS licensed game I sank countless precious hours of my childhood into. Although, the Tiny Toons game was actually a fantastic platformer now that I think about it, amazing level design and 4 unique characters a forgotten gem probnably overlooked even during the NES' prime.

But folks like Capcom and Konami knew how to make a good licensed game... Well, back in those days, anyways.
You can't honestly say DuckTales was bad, can you?

I never liked Chip and Dale, even way back when it came out.
As for Duck Tales, I played it not too long ago and it just wasn't anywhere near as good as I seem to recall.
...admittedly, though, I did play it on an emulator, which could have had something to do with it.

For every Duck Tales, there's a Total Recall.
For every Rambo, there's a Predator.
For every Robocop, there's a Terminator 2.
Actually, maybe it's just the licensed games featuring Ah-nuld
(suddenly remembers "Back to the Future", and throws up a little in his mouth)

Did I miss something?
I don't even remember hearing anything about Ben-9, and now they're up to 10?

Kids will want any old shit with the right name on it. We all went though that stage.
Yes, even YOU!
Sometimes the game would be actually good, but most of the time it was a cheap cash in.

A Cartoon Network show. It's surprisingly watchable.

not nearly as good as their newest, Batman The Brave and the Bold.

With the exception of the last two Schumaker Batman movies, there isn't much that involves Batman that isn't good.

I would consider buying a Ben 10 game if it were... ya know, GOOD. The show's not half bad, and could have some game potential.
