Game Informer, as part of their epic Epic Mickey coverage, reconfirm that the game is a Wii “exclusive”. Given that the game appears to feature a mechanic that’s reliant on motion control, rumoured to let Mickey Mouse paint and erase the environment, how could it possibly come to anything else?

Well, by holding it back a while til Natal & the Sphere are on the market?

Friday, October 9, 2009 at 1:19 PMAlthough I thought Okami worked very well on the PS2, there’s no indication at all that the game will use a similar system.
As for Natal and The Wand, all three are very different pieces of hardware. It wouldn’t just be a case of porting the game between the systems. Plus, it’ll be good to get a solid release on the Wii.

Banish it from news entirely. I’m no longer interested in any way.

Let’s just release everything on PC. It’s the easiest way to do it!
