I think Epic Mickey will flop.   I could be wrong and may change my mind as new info and videos become available but who's going to be interested in this game?   Mickey is too kiddy for core and the game is too dark and core for kids.   I have no idea who the target market is.

The Wii core will likely buy it but that's 300-500k.  Big deal.

And although KH has Mickey there's no other comparison so it's no basis.

Mickey isn't too kiddy for the core, remember the meltdowns when the game was announced to be Wii exclusive? KH has multiple Disney characters, it's the whole basis of the game and it sells well despite the fact the game looks like it's targeted to teens. Doesn't change the fact many kids buy it. It doesn't seem to be any much darker than KH anyway, and it's not like every single level is going to be this dark evil mess. The game's rated E10 like recent KHs not T or M.

Wanna take a bet in that it sells more than 300k-500k?

Internet meltdowns are not representative of real life, otherwise JRPG's would be popular. Kingdom Hearts met success on a console that was popular with that exact demographic.

Very true but Epic Mickey also isn't an action RPG more like action adventure with 2D platforming segments too, could be really interesting to see how it turns out and how many people get behind it.
