Description
Colorful action platformer featuring Felix the Cat exploring magical worlds with his magic bag. Published under Dragon Co. license, released in China. Felix using his magic bag to transform objects into weapons and tools to battle and colorful levels. An original Felix the Cat platformer on NES.
This English World edition of Felix the Cat corresponds to a run aimed at markets outside the standard Nintendo channel, making it a distinct variant from the official NTSC and PAL cartridges. Its collector interest is mainly typological: it rounds out a study of the different pressings of the same licensed Hudson Soft platformer. More marginal than standard territorial editions, its value tracks the American version without carrying its official distribution pedigree.
Is Felix the Cat still worth playing in 2026?
A Hudson Soft licensed platformer, Felix the Cat sends the famous black cat to explore colorful worlds with his magic bag that turns into vehicles and weapons depending on the bonuses picked up. The adorable direction, the accessible pace and the variety of transformations make it a charming, good-natured platformer, tailored for a young audience. The difficulty stays gentle and the formula classic. A delightful gem for fans of retro cartoon platforming and Felix nostalgics on the NES.
