Looks like Disney maybe planning a sequel to their successful Disney Epic Mickey released last winter on Nintendo Wii.

According to an anonymous Dtoid reader, Epic Mickey 2 is currently being gauged by Disney via online marketing. There are a lot of specifics here, which is always nice. That doesn't mean that the game is definitely going to happen, but it sure looks like the development of Epic Mickey 2 has gone well beyond the "purely theoretical" stages. There are several potential box arts here, as well as some of the titles being considered for the game (including Epic Mickey 2: Return of the Mad Doctor, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, Epic Mickey 2: Mystery on Mean Street, and just Epic Mickey 2).

The game is reportedly planned for release on the Wii, the PS3, and the 360. Gameplay details include the option to play 2-player split screen with Mickey Mouse (back with his paint and thinner mechanics from the first game) or his older brother Oswald The Lucky Rabbit (who can "fly like a helicopter" and use electricity to "fight or friend" foes).

I for one am incredibly excited, I loved the first game and hope to see even more Disney parks included in the sequel. Fingers crossed for some Epcot action.

Aww man!! I haven't even finished the first one yet. Of course I have rarely played it either. Looks like I have to fix that.

The split-screen stuff sounds perfect for the WiiU

I think Disney interactive made a mistake by not making the first a timed exclusive at the least. The extra sales from Kinect and move could have been big. Its a bit disappointing that they might be rectifying this by doing a sequel instead of porting the first, then doing 2. Oh well, its not like Disney is known for their smart decisions in the video game world anyway. :lol:
