Now THIS is interesting. From the Orange County Register:
Players of the new Disney video game for the Nintendo Wii "Epic Mickey," will get the chance to take a look inside Walt Disney's famous apartment above the Disneyland firehouse at the Disneyland Resort.
The game's creative director, Warren Spector, said that he deliberately put the apartment in the game that uses a forgotten look at Disneyland.
A portrait of Walt Disney hangs on a wall inside the apartment he built to keep from having to travel during the building of Disneyland.
"I figured it was the only way I would ever get a look inside Uncle Walt's apartment," (Warren) said.
While at Disneyland showing reporters all the locations and attractions at the park that were the inspiration for many of the game's settings on Thursday, Nov. 4, Disneyland officials surprised Spector and the reporters accompanying him by taking everyone inside for a quick tour.
Spector said that unlike the darker look the rest of the game has, they treated Disney's apartment with respect, but would not reveal how gamers will be able to get inside.
The game features the return of Oswald the Rabbit, the first cartoon character ever produced on film by Walt Disney.
It is produced by Disney Interactive Studios, will be released on Thursday, Nov. 25, and is available only on the Nintendo Wii platform.
