At first I was going to agree, but then I remembered that this isn't exactly the first bite at the apple for Mickey. While most of them have been stinkers, I double-checked the sales for Mickey's Speedway USA ( a pretty solid title with nearly the same metacritic rating as Epic Mickey), and while it didn't sell terribly, it didn't sell all that great either. So there's more to it than just this.
