Unfortunally because of the Draconian laws used by some corporations I can't watch the bloody thing. It's at minute 7:20

It's good to see this game going mainstream.

I can't see the show either but why would Epic Mickey go to Conan O'Brien?

They probably paid a lot of money for it to be presented like that.

Actually the game is getting some mainstream media coverage, but it's more focused on "OMG they're changing Mickey" Check this:

Some of the comments are priceless

No, this is a creepy mean looking Mickey! Mickey is supposed to be fun and happy even if he is acting mischievous. The disconnect between appearance and action is part of the fun- he looks sweet and unsuspecting no matter what he may do- even if it's naughty. They might as well make a whole different mouse. Morty Mouse or something. Mickey's cousin or clone- Mickey's 'other self' freed from Mickey's body and moving about independently.
Thumbs Down!

OH, please! Disney has gone way to far. Mickey is a good guy and don't wreck it! If disney does this and makes a new mickey like they are talking. I will forbid my children from every watching Mickey again. I have a 2 1/2 year old who totally adores Mickey Mouse and everything is Mickey. I am totally against this move - Disney does this than I will change what my children watch and they will only be able to watch Baby First TV and nothing else.

How adorable! Gangsta Mickey! What will they think of next? Now the very thing that dumbs us down is being dumbed down.

Delicious.....
