Chip and Dale (also rendered as Chip 'n' Dale or Chip an' Dale) are two anthropomorphic chipmunk brothers[1] created at Walt Disney Productions in 1943. Their names are a pun based on the name of the famous 18th-century cabinet maker and furniture designer Thomas Chippendale. This was suggested by Bill 'Tex' Henson, a story artist at the studio.
Of the two, Chip is portrayed as being safe, focused, and having a mind for logical scheming. Dale, by contrast, is more laid-back, dim-witted, and impulsive, and has a very strong sense of humor. Originally the two had a very similar appearance, but as a way to tell them apart, some differences were introduced: Chip has a small black nose and two centered protruding teeth, whereas Dale has a large dark red nose and a prominent gap between his buckteeth. Chip is also depicted as having smooth hair on top of his head while Dale's tends to be ruffled.
In most cartoons, they are antagonists against Pluto, Mickey Mouse, or most often, Donald Duck. They were given their own series in the 1950s, but only three cartoons resulted under their name: Chicken in the Rough (1951), Two Chips and a Miss (1952) and The Lone Chipmunks (1954). The duo was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film three times in four years: in 1946 for Squatter's Rights (against Mickey and Pluto), in 1947 for Chip an' Dale and in 1949 for Toy Tinkers (both against Donald Duck).

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers[edit]
In 1989, Chip and Dale became the title characters in a new animated television series, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, in which they formed a detective agency with new characters created for the show: female mouse inventor Gadget Hackwrench, muscular adventuring Australian mouse Monterey Jack, and Zipper the fly. While in the original shorts the duo are frequent troublemakers who are concerned only with themselves, in Rescue Rangers they are crime fighters who help the less fortunate.[2]
In this series the personality differences between the two are more pronounced, with Chip as the responsible, no-nonsense leader and Dale as the goofy, laid back free spirit. Additionally, they wear clothes in this series which reflect their personalities; Chip wears a leather jacket and fedora (much like Indiana Jones), while Dale wears a Hawaiian shirt (much like Magnum, P.I.). Also, Corey Burton gave Dale a slightly raspier voice not heard in any incarnations before.
Comics series[edit]
Chip 'n' Dale also had their own comic book title, first from Dell Comics with Four Color Comics #517, 581,and 636, then their own title for issues #4-30 (1955–62), which was then continued by Gold Key Comics with #1-64 (1967–80), and later under its brand Whitman with #65-83 (1980–84).[3]

- 'Daisy Bo Peep'

Mickey and the Roadster Racers[edit]
Chip and Dale also make recurring appearances in Mickey and the Roadster Racers as mechanics.
DuckTales[edit]
Chip 'n' Dale, based on their Rescue Rangers iterations, will appear in the 2017 TV series DuckTales.[4]
Untitled Chip 'n' Dale series[edit]
The characters will have an animated series that will be released on Disney+ in 2020, co-produced by The Walt Disney Company France and Xilam Animation. Unlike other iterations of the characters, the series will be non-verbal.[5]
Other appearances[edit]
Chip 'n' Dale were planned to appear as a cameo in the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The scene, 'Acme's Funeral', however, was cut from the final film. Storyboard artwork for this sequence survives, where they can be seen alongside characters such as Goofy, Horace Horsecollar, Clarabelle Cow, Popeye, Bluto, Felix the Cat, Porky Pig, Sylvester the Cat, Yosemite Sam, Foghorn Leghorn, Casper the Friendly Ghost and Droopy. [1]
Chip 'n' Dale occasionally appeared in Mickey Mouse Works and Disney's House of Mouse. They can also be spotted in the 1983 featurette Mickey's Christmas Carol where they are seen dancing to the music inside Fezziwigs. They also appear at all the Disney Parks as well. In the new Mickey Mouse episode 'Space Walkies', they made a brief cameo as they were being chased by Pluto.
Goofy Gophers[edit]
A recurring shtick often mistakenly attributed to Chip 'n' Dale is the characters' alleged use of politeness: 'After you,' … 'No, I insist, after you!' This gag, from the early-1900s Alphonse and Gaston comic strip, is used by another studio's characters: Warner Bros' Mac and Tosh as the Goofy Gophers. However, in the 1950 short 'Out on a Limb,' Chip 'n' Dale do engage in a round of this (possibly in reference to the Goofy Gophers) before Chip stops it from getting out of hand with a swift kick to Dale's rear end.
Voice actors[edit]
The classic voices of Chip 'n' Dale were mostly provided by Helen Silbert, Dessie Flynn/Dessie Miller, and James MacDonald. The earliest voices were provided by female office staff, without credit. In 'Private Pluto' the chipmunks' speech was created by speeding up sound clips of normal speech. In a number of the shorts that followed, many of these same sound clips were used again, though later shorts used dialogue specifically recorded for that short.
At one point in 'Winter Storage', Chip and Dale get into an argument while caught in a trap. When the scene switches to an outside view of the box (with Donald Duck sitting on the box) the dialogue being heard is actually a sped up segment of the voice-over narration from the Goofy short 'A Knight for a Day'.
Since 1988, Chip has been voiced by Tress MacNeille and Dale by Corey Burton.

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers[a] is a platformervideo game developed and published by Capcom based on the Disneyanimated series of the same name.[1] Originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in Japan and North America in 1990, it came to Europe the next year, and was ported to the Nintendo PlayChoice-10 arcade system. It sold approximately 1.2 million copies worldwide.
The game was included in The Disney Afternoon Collection compilation for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One released in April 2017.[2]
Gameplay[edit]
Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers is a platform game featuring single and 2-player cooperative modes, allowing players to choose which levels to access via a map of various locations throughout the city. Each individual stage is set up as a side-scrolling action game where Chip and Dale can walk, jump, duck, and pick up objects such as acorns, crates, barrels, and balls to throw at enemies and bosses. Each character can withstand only three direct hits before they lose a life, and there are no passwords. In two-player mode, Controller 1 is Chip, Controller 2 is Dale.
The rest of the Rescue Rangers also appear to support Chip and Dale. Monterey Jack will occasionally appear to break down certain barricades, while Zipper grants temporary invincibility to the player when found. Gadget, though in Fat Cat's captivity, provides tips and advice for the chipmunks in each stage.
Plot[edit]
The Rescue Rangers are going on a mission to retrieve a missing kitten for a girl named Mandy. As Gadget goes on ahead to scout the area and Monterey Jack is sent to investigate sightings of strange mechanical dogs with Zipper, Chip and Dale proceed through the streets and into a laboratory, where they are attacked by a crazed robot.
After defeating the robot, Fat Cat appears and reveals that 'Mandy's kitten' was just a distraction so he could kidnap Gadget and force her to work for him. Fortunately, Gadget is able to contact Chip and Dale by building a wireless phone and sending a map to them via carrier pigeon, allowing them to navigate through the treacherous landscape and reach Fat Cat's casino where she is being held. After rescuing her, Gadget provides the chipmunks with a rocket that sends them towards Fat Cat's hideout so they can defeat him.

Development[edit]
Rescue Rangers was the second Capcom-developed Disney game after 1989's DuckTales, also for the Nintendo Entertainment System.[3] It was produced by Tokuro Fujiwara, who had previously worked on titles such as Mega Man 2 and Ghosts'n Goblins. According to then-Disney game producer Darlene Lacey, the title was one of the 'least troublesome' Capcom projects to meet the company's family-friendly ethics standards, with very few changes made during development.[4] The Japanese and European versions of the game contain fixes to minor graphical glitches during the opening cutscene seen in the North American release, and a leaked prototype cartridge from a private collector reveals that at one time the player was only required to collect half as many flowers and stars to gain extra lives, though the original amounts were still erroneously printed in the North American instruction manual.[4]
Reception[edit]
Reception | ||||||||||||

Rescue Rangers proved to be a commercial success, selling approximately 1.2 million copies worldwide, becoming Capcom's fourth highest-selling game for the Nintendo Entertainment System.[9] It met with a mostly positive response upon its release in North America, with Electronic Gaming Monthly finding that 'like previous Disney titles for the NES, this Capcom game offers the best graphics and game play for both young and old players alike,' praising the title's 2-player option and 'cartoon' visuals.[5] The magazine criticized the title's lack of difficulty, saying 'like the other Disney games, Capcom has hurt a great cart by making it too easy,' calling the game 'a great package that ends too quickly.'[5] Conversely, European Mean Machines magazine called it 'tough and enjoyable,' and said 'what sets Rescue Rangers apart from other NES platformers is the speed of gameplay and the level of challenge.'[7] The game received the Parents' Choice Foundation's 1990 Parents' Choice Award for video games that November.[10]
Nintendo Power ranked Rescue Rangers 79th in their 1997 list of the top 100 greatest games released for Nintendo systems, saying 'Capcom lived up to its reputation for superior play control and graphics.'[11] In 2009, website IGN placed the game 71st on their list of the 100 greatest NES games of all time, with editors remarking that the title may have been more linear than Capcom's earlier title DuckTales, but it was nonetheless 'an addictive platforming masterpiece'.[12] That year, GamesRadar ranked the game sixth on their list of the seven best Disney games, saying Rescue Rangers was 'still worth playing' nearly 20 years after its original release.[13]

Sequel[edit]
Capcom released a sequel in December 1993 titled Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2, also for the Nintendo Entertainment System.[14] The title has similar graphics and gameplay, as well as additional incentives for cooperative play such as mini-games that can only be played by two players and the ability to throw one's partner as a weapon.
