I LOVE Epic Mickey! Mostly for the story and art; it's the only video game "Art of..." book I own among my sea of movie ones.

The melancholy, dark atmosphere of most of the areas was what made it special and the second mostly just dropped that and it was so disappointing (plus the story sucked). I hope they do a good job replicating the original's feel; Gremlin Village's screenshot looks promising. I'm really excited to see how this goes!

Thank God. If I remember rightly it was one stick to move the character and the other to do the camera. I hate that. I like a locked camera

Isn’t one stick to move and the other for the camera the standard across most platformers? Also the Wii didn’t have two sticks which is the only system this game was released on.

Yeah usually it is but I remember really struggling with it when I am usually quite good at games. It was so long ago that I can't even remember what console I played it on now. Possibly XBOX 360

It’s nice to see he was involved in some way.

I don’t know if it’s just me being optimistic but it seems like there’s a real effort here for a relaunch of this series. I’d hope this acts as a jumping off point if it’s successful enough for a new sequel or a vastly improved version of the sequel we have.

Maybe we’ll eventually get his Epic Mickey 3

Epic Mickey 3 was the planned third game in the Epic Mickey series, cancelled due to Disney wanting to go into a different direction for their gaming division, because of the rising market of mobile games after the release of Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. Warren Spector was asked about...

I wonder if they’re kicking themselves for missing out on Nintendo considering how huge they’ve now become since 2015 when the deal with Universal was first announced.

I don't think Iger has any regrets. From what I've seen, Nintendo had a lot of control over the project. We know from Potter Disney doesn't really want to give that much control up. And he still doesn't take video games seriously. When, or if he leaves, then maybe we see a shift. As of now I'll take "play a major roll" as headline making over actual substance.
