It'll sell to more than teens, but the style of the game is very much teen oriented, that will be the main and most important market for the game.

 

Oh, dear, enough with that kind of cliché (the same usually made with big N games): nearly everyone in the western world has grew up with some Disney movies since the 30s, and there's no age to still love all the past classics... or the new ones, this time made by Pixar...

I'm 40, and i just can't wait for such a game... as written in my profile, i love the 30's-50's cartoons, so i'm really glad this game sticks to the "old" Mickey's art style, as i always found the more "modern" one boring... it's also a real hommage to the Disney universe of these days, and Spector looks like a real specialist, and a damn fine collector: he knows everything about that stuff, and won't mess up with it...

Plus, the game seems to be close to Okami in the gameplay department, and the "dark" atmosphere has a kind of Burton/Selick feel (both worked at Disney in the late 70s/ early 80s, btw): now, if that's still not enough for some, they can go back to their usual FPS/slashers, and not waste their time commenting about a game they hate, just to try to look smart on some internet forums...

Of course, not everyone in the world is like me, and have the same tastes and the same priorities: but i think Mickey has a kind of universal appeal, and this game will sell to a very mixed and very wide audience... and i'd even say that some parents will want this game more than their kids, who sometimes have kinda forgotten about Mickey in recent times... so, the Wii userbase is just perfect for it, in fact: gamers of all styles and all ages, and more open-minded people who usually may like cartoony games, it's a perfect match...
