Forums - Sales - Epic Mickey 2 sold 270k in the US

Disney’s biggest recent success has been the mobile game "Where’s my Water?" which has been downloaded more than 100 million times.

The company’s only major console franchise in recent years has been "Epic Mickey," a re-imagining of the classic character from the respected video game creator Warren Spector.

Although the 2010 game was a modest success, selling 1.3 million units in the U.S. from its November launch through the end of that year, 2012’s sequel sold only 270,000 copies during the comparable time period, according to a person with access to sales data from research firm NPD Group who was not authorized to share it publicly.

It’s unclear whether Spector and his Texas-based Junction Point Studios will continue working with Disney. Pleasants declined to discuss the topic and Spector could not be reached for comment.

Not that great for Epic Mickey 2 but how the hell is 1.3 million for the first 2 months in the USA for the first one only classified as a 'modest success'? Especially with dev costs being lower on the Wii than on HD consoles.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

if we go by what neogaf people said, this was called BS a while ago.

i am disappointed in the first human Spector



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’
