kingofwale, seriously your bordering on trolling

What do you mean call it "Mickeys Party"

we should be encouraging creativity for wii with games like these

I for one HOPE it sells over 1.5 Million & becomes a BIG HIT!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

@Justin

Epic Mickey is the final name.

o.O

 

Man, what a bad name.  Oh well, I'm assuming that the rest of the game will be more creative.

Over 1 mil obviously.

I'll take the bet but chances are we'll forget about it by the time the game actually releases...

lol, None sense... I haven't forgotten about our KH3 bet. :)

 

Also, I remember making a bet on Wii-cheer and Battle of the Band.

 

so, yes on bet?

 

Heck, I want this game to do well, I just hate the whole idea of "We have to make it exclusive". Frankly, people with Wii really don't care about exclusivity like PS360 people do.



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

KH3 bet: "If KH3 comes to Wii exclusive, I will take a 1 month of sig/avatar by otheres open a thread apologize and praise you guys' brilliance." http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=18379

They should have just had a separate developer work on the two games.


Then they'd have an inferior version. For a game that's supposed to be a change for the whole company, there's no reason not to make it as quality as possible and creating divides isn't good. So they just went Wii exclusive because the gameplay would benefit and because the Wii sells Disney titles a lot anyway, and is also the #1 console.

It was cheaper to develop for, simple as that.

Well that does help but I doubt a company like Disney wouldn't be able to afford one game :P It has more to do with the audience and the gameplay more than anything I'd say. Being cheaper just helps.

yeah, i do think this game fits the wii better, its a disney game. But, weird they ever started it in HD. I am really looking foward to this game.

.....or, as the article said, they'd have to develop 2 seperate games.  One for the 'HD' systems and one for the Wii.  And they considered the Wii version the more important version.



Six upcoming games you should look into:

they were making this game for the HD  console first, then were going to port it to the Wii, but they changed their mind which was a good thing since this game will sell more on the Wii anyway.
