It's Bonkers (yeah, totally nuts) that Nintendo fans are only getting this collection nine years after launch.

One of the early Digital Eclipse collections is finally coming to Switch and is bringing some bonus content.

Following an ESRB rating and a listing on the Japanese eShop, it has been confirmed that the Disney Afternoon Collection - a compilation of Capcom NES games based on the late 1980s/early 1990s after-school block - will be available on Switch 2 and Switch on February 26. Originally developed by Digital Eclipse and published by Capcom when it launched on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in April of 2017, the new release will be published by current DE owners Atari.

The collection included six games in its first release: DuckTales, DuckTales 2, Chip 'n Dale's Rescue Rangers (original and 2), Darkwing Duck, and TaleSpin. The Switch releases will add a pair of Super Nintendo games in 1993's Goof Troop (a co-op focused game which was an early project for future Resident Evil lead Shinji Mikami) and 1994's Bonkers. All games will feature rewind functions among other modern conveniences.

Oh wonderful! I had been dragging my feet hoping for a Switch release and now we get Goof Troop?!? Perfect time since I've been trying to play coop games with my daughter.

I did pick this up on PS4 but would double dip for a switch 2 cartridge.

I'm hoping Goof Troop at least comes to the other versions. I bought this years ago, and I'd rather not buy it all over again for just one OK-ish SNES game (as unironically significant as that game is to gaming history).

What do you mean about its significance in gaming History? Was this the first Capcom licensed franchise game on the SNES or something?

As mentioned in the article, this was Shinji Mikami's project just before getting tapped to work on remaking Sweet Home, which would become Resident Evil. If this game had gone poorly, we might be looking at a very different industry, at least in terms of horror games.
