Warren Spector and his team is hard at work putting the finishing touches on Epic Mickey. Before starting this project, Disney made it clear it wanted to give Mickey an extended break before bringing the character back into the gaming space. The company felt Epic Mickey was the perfect game to showcase Mickey’s return. Warren Spector is obviously proud of his project, but there are still characters he wants Disney to grant him access to. Spector wants the ducks.

The Nintendo Wii has pulled off quite a coup becoming the exclusive home to a game that promises to change everything you think you know about Mickey Mouse.

Disney’s corporate mascot wasn’t always the happy, smiling doormat we’ve come to know him as. When Walt Disney first created him, he had a playful but mischievous streak that got him into trouble. That’s the Mickey Mouse legendary game creator Warren Spector loves. When Disney officials approached him about redoing Mickey in a video game, he was shocked to find they wanted to bring that mousy miscreant out of the mothballs.
