Epic Mickey on the way to Wii? Concept Art

Epic Mickey on the way to Wii? Concept Art on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Some concept art has emerged from a project supposedly in development from the Wii - Warren Spector's take on Mickey Mouse.

Dubbed "Epic Mickey", the project is said to have come about late last year given Disney Interactive Studios had purchased Spector's Junction Point Studios. Today some internet sleuthing has brought up a handful of concept art and a resume previously confirmed that it's on the way to Nintendo's Wii, listed as: "Epic Mickey" (Wii Video Game). This tidbit has since been pulled, but the project remains.

Currently details are loose, and there isn't official confirmation from either Disney or Junction Point Studios, though expect a response shortly. For now though, some gorgeous and absolutely bizzare snippets of what could be:

What do you think of this concept? Would you like to see a game come out of this?

Certainly looks rather epic. Would be a nice addition to the Wii catalogue, even better if it was exclusive.

A Dream team is making this game. It is going to be awesome!

Here's hoping it doesn't get cancelled or anything! Very interested to see what comes out of this, it sounds utterly bizarre.

Those are some of the greatets drawings Ive ever seen. Truly marvelous.

-Have you any idea what it's like to be a Fembot living in a Manbot's Manputer's world?
-What?

I am hoping for another Galaxy Smilie.

Wow, it's like making a deal with the Devil: you get what you want most, but it's all screwed up. A game by a first-rate Western developer for the Wii... and it's a DISNEY GAME. God damn it.

gatotsu911, what is wrong with this game being a Disney game? It is being done by a dream team with a very talented game designer as the project lead. I think it is a win situation. Game is going to sell well because it is an extremely popular IP from Disney and it is going to be amazing in terms of game design

wow...amazing concepts indeed.

Why the hell is kingdom hearts 1 and 2 not being ported to the wii:-x

didt think you guys will post this nothing 100% really yet but it looking like it will be for the wii lets hope no one try to stop it

A Mickey tower, Epcot, and an industrial wasteland. All together. On the back of a narwhal. Perfection.

A little darker than typical Disney. But they've done a few darkish things before. It looks awesome.

Its like a modern and mechanical retake of the classic. Looks fresh and new.

I think I just messed my pants! I had both hands on the keyboard I swear.

Disney games used to be really good. I love mickey mouse castle of illusion. world of illusion with mickey and donald and quack shot were all excelent on the megadrive. fantasia was a bit meh though. But by the time I picked that up I was a little old for it.

If they would make a great epic story out of this, it would be awesome and a great adding to Wii's lineup. The artwork is absolutely stunning, surely, they cam screw it up with a poor racing game or 'funny story', but they did something like Kingdom Hearts, so maybe the do something even more great with this. Kinda postapocalyptic story with a serious stroy and great twists.

Hey, let me dream...

I find your lack of faith disturbing!

Oh man! FINALLY something to look forward to. Those screenshots are beautiful! It looks like an epic adventure!

Wouldn't it be great if this were for Kingdom Hearts? Smilie

It's possible, but I think Kingdom Hearts was dark enough as it is.

This wouldn't be a sequel, it would be a total transformation o.0;

Yes. I'm still curious as to what this is for. Although the Goofy pic looks really weird.
Could in actuality he be a giant boss? Or new kind of hollow heartless?

Everything does look dark. I would love to see a game from this! If it closely matches the screenshots I see today, then no doubt about it that this will be an epic adventure. I hope this gets the green light.
