I agree, but they would need to bring back Warren Spector and almost every other member who was involved in the first two games. Plus, with how Disney is nowadays, chances are Epic Mickey 3, if it were revived, would fall under the same problem of Disney meddling to push Warren and company or whoever they get to make the threequel to add ethnicity and many more content that has caused people to hate Disney's current films, there is a chance Epic Mickey 3 will end up bombing if Disney interferred. Plus, we would need HD remasters of the first two games, which would be pretty much impossible due to the first Epic Mickey being done with Nintendo's involvement.
i feel like disney treated infinity so much better than epic mickey just because it was a cross over even though it wasnt even selling that well due to skylanders and lego dimensions
Disney Infinity can’t come back the way it was, Skylanders either, because Toys To Life died out Now that doesn’t mean they can’t do it, but there’s a better way now. Still make physical stuff, but also an option to buy it digitally, this will make it so rare figures are still rare, but the experience is open to more people My thoughts are that using that method would allow for so much more, especially digital content, like if you have Disney+ you could get one play set for free, or maybe some exclusive versions of characters (like a black and white version of Wanda and Vision) Honestly I don’t know why they aren’t thinking of this, this would work so well for Disney Infinity, and it could save Skylanders which was a fun franchise
The game was alot of 2010s kids favorite game growing up and honestly both of the games actually aged very well to today's standards despite it being over 11 years since the original and 9 for the sequel
@@Poloskii the game concept was so fucking great idk how it could've been passed up so easily. Remembering how dark the game is always reminds me how disney movies are just the kid friendly verison of the grimbrothers stories
Since 2019 I've noticed that Epic Mickey content is getting more attention, if we keep going like this, then maybe Disney will notice and do something about it.
We got a remake, and the remake's credits still had the sequel teaser. So, maybe we'll get a power of 2 remakes and then finally the return of the mouse if we're lucky.
Yeah... Y'know, there's some stuff in the first game that still kinda baffles me. Take the World of Gremlins, for instance. It's the largest world in the game (or at least it feels like it), but it's also the most underutilized and the most disconnected. There's barely any meaningful story development in it (unless you count Small Pete's quest I guess), and there isn't even any build-up to the Clock Tower fight, yet there's a clear mission for it, as if you were supposed to know of its existence. Gus even talks about quests and your map and stuff only when you reach Mean Street, which is AFTER the entire World of Gremlins! It's like one giant tutorial stage, with great atmosphere, but one that you went through and never go back to or even mention again.
I love this franchise so much. I’ve had dreams about how this game could be made. Level designs, story, characters, all of it. I had a Twitter thread talking about it but I can’t post it here but I had said that The Pete’s make Prescott build a machine out of the clock tower to time travel through wastelands time to benefit them for the future. We get a huge battle sequence 1/3 in the game with the clock tower showing off proportions between boss and character. They lose the battle and time gets altered and the Pete’s rule. The blot is free again. The crew has to save each other to come up with a plan. Come to that they need to go to the white rabbit from Alice in wonderland and learn about scale, size, and time altering. They use the abilities to fix the timeline and stop the blot again. The blot sequences would show how big it is to Mickey and Oswald. When they go to defeat the blot, the blot won’t have a heart to live by but Mickey can use his to either absorb it and kill it or use it to rebuild wasteland into something wayyy better. The whole game is open world, no load screens, fast travel can be unlocked through projectors, better in game camera, can play as Donald, ortensia, goofy, daisy, Mickey, Oswald. Donald has sound abilities, ortensia has her bunnies, goofy self destruct/body dismemberment for distance items/buttons, daisy can distract baddies? All characters used for puzzles. Also no musicals or like if any just one. They dragged on too long. But that’s my thoughts and ideas for what I would do for the 3rd one.
@@stevenbinkley4429 Awhile ago I also had a rly good fangame concept. However, it's set in a slightly different multiverse than the first game, starting off in that time frame in the first game where the blot is free again. But in this game, Wasteland collides with Mario's world. So the plot: Mario and Luigi are told Peach has been captured, so they go to the castle to get her back, only to find out it was a trick from bowser. He cages them, and he explains that he can't ever rule this universe cause of the bros so he has to go rule another one. Then he opens up a multiverse portal, and out comes the Blot. It completely destroys the castle, sending Mario flying back to Peach's place, and he has no clue where Luigi is. Fast forward a month later, and the Blot has supreme control of the place. All of Bowser's goons are now blot versions of their past selves, and Mario has to keep a wrench with him at all times to be able to defeat any that come his way. He also now wears a hat made out of scrap metal that resembles his old one, his outfit is faded and dirty, etc. So he's out looking for Luigi, and then he gets cornered. When he thinks he's toast, Mickey comes in clutch and saves him. The two then team up to restore both worlds. In the game, you can swap between Mickey and Mario. Mickey has his same abilities as usual, but this time his left arm can turn into a shield/sword, due to part of the blot touching him. Mario can throw his metal hat like a frisbee for distance damage, and has his wrench for close counters. He can also fix things. After beating a bit of Mario's world, the player could get the ability to travel between Mickey and Mario's universe, and possibly even get other characters to play as. What do you think? Was gonna do this at the start of the year but the place I used to code couldn't handle it. I do intend to be a game dev in the future, and if I'm ever successful in that path, I genuinely want to pitch this idea to Disney and Nintendo and see if it can happen.
I’m saying it now: Rerelease it as a collection, Switch, Xbox, PS4 and PS5, PC, the collection would be: Epic Mickey, Epic Mickey 2, and Epic Mickey Power of Illusion Release that, see how people react, if it’s good, then Disney should just have somebody make the third Obviously Disney can’t anymore, they closed that part of the company near the end of Disney Infinity 3.0, so just outsource it to someone who can make it on par the games All I want is a third game, especially due to how short 2 is, even if you do the side stuff
If that Epic Donald game would have happened, that one would have been a quite a hit over here Finland, probably (or in Europe in general, also in Brazil too). E: The Disney Princess trapped inside of a mirror in that one concept art is Snow White actually, not Sleeping Beauty.
@@lanibird2182 Nope. The ABE lines are taken out of context. With the context it is 100% clear that Storm Blot is the Blot that comes out of the bottle. It's not a mistake either. Warren used that name in the artbook and Chase Jones said that it was a nickname for the Blot given by the people of Wasteland.
Though we never got an Epic Mickey 3, I am certain we have the EM series to thank for Oswald getting his well-deserved spotlight, to the point he's gotten his own short (the Holiday-themed video greetings card), cameos in various Disney shorts (Get a Horse and the Mickey Mouse Shorts) and even a few in the more recent movies (Big Hero 6 and Zootopia). Disney got the rights back for Oswald in 2006 but without Epic Mickey we may never have seen anything come of it.
An Epic Mickey 3 that begins right after 2 would be perfect and I still have hope that someone will make it. My idea is that the Pete's try to take over the wasteland and find a way to take Pete's from other places threw wasteland rifts AKA "Epic Mickey 3 The Rifts of Wasteland" In that game the Pete's corrupt Mickey and it's up to Ozwald to save the wasteland.
Small addendum/correction to this video: Warren Spector doesn't like sequels. He leaves enough room to make them possible, but he doesn't do them himself. Back at Ion Storm Austin he worked on Deus Ex and when it was time for Deaus Ex 2: Invisible War he gave the project to Harvey Smith (now CEO of Arkane Studios). Same goes for Epic Mickey. Warren made Epic Mickey with Chase Jones and when it was time for Epic Mickey 2, he let Chase do the whole project. Warren himself was a huge DuckTales fan. In his first meeting with Disney Warren asked for Donald, Scrooge, and his nephews. But Graham Hopper (Disney Interactive Studios CEO) wanted a Mickey Mouse game (they already had a prototype for their game). So Warren took the iconic mouse and made Epic Mickey. But as soon as Warren was done with that, he started to work on DuckTales. He produced the DuckTales comic book series (2011) published by Boom! Studios, while Chase was making Epic Mickey 2. And he also pitched Epic Donald right after Epic Mickey (1) release. But about a month before the Epic Mickey (1) release Disney resturctured their video games division. They decided to close Graham Hoppers Disney Interactive Studios and replaced them with Playdom (for 763 million dollars). So by the time Epic Mickey got released Hopper (the only Disney higher-up on Warrens side) was gone. Warren had a new boss from that point on: John Peasants. John closed all Disney video game studios that worked on normal console games (Propaganda Games, Black Rock Studios and so on) one or two month after the Epic Mickey release. The only reason Junction Point wasn't shut down at that point, was because some analyst said Epic Mickey 2 could be profitable if it will be released till autumn 2012. So Disney threw money at Junction Point and forced them to double their size (just to work faster). They had about 110 people for Epic Mickey 1. For Epic Mickey 2 they ramped up to 200 normal employes + 100 in external studios around the world. All those people just had the job to finish Epic Mickey 2 as fast as they can and Warren had to fire them right after. He knew that for month but wasn't leagaly allowed to tell them. Disney/Playdom never had plans for Epic Mickey 3. The only reason for the Epic Mickey 3 artwork and design plans were the two month spare time Disney gave Warren to shut down the studio.
Epic Mickey was a great game to play and after finishing the second game I started to hunt down the third game but only to realize it was not made. I am very displeased and disappointed with Disney shutting down the studio and causing this great game series to come to a cliff hanger. I thought that the cliff hanger at the end was leading to part two of the second game but there was nothing to be found. I would gladly pay for Epic Mickey 3 so that I could get a proper story and see the cartoon world and not just mickeys house. The detail and work put into this Trilogy was a work of magic with the music. Bringing in Fantasia 2000 for the second game really hooked me since Fantasia 2000, as a personal opinion, had some of the best music I have heard.
I love this channel. this is the kind of content I dig through RUclips for and here it is all on one channel :) could you make an updated video about Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 ? there's been SO many ups and downs recently during the development.
I really love epic mickey because it introduced me to my now favourite Disney character Oswald I just love his character so much and I’m glad this game showed me his great character
Holy shit someone made a video on my fav game in 2021 someone other then knows it exist?! Is there still hope?! Answer definitely not. Guess Disney cannot count to 3 either
I think given the news of the remake of the first one, I would have Warren Spector gain a second chance in finishing the Epic Mickey story. However, the biggest change in this would be have Epic Mickey 2 merge story elements with its handheld Spinoff story and give Oswald a slight chance to meet the Disney Family trapped in Wasteland through the Castle of Illusion. Then go into the third game and giving Warren Spector full control in wrapping the story up the way he intended.
The first Disney epic mickey is just not forgotten the musics them selves is okay besides of clock tower but i love going through the old projectiles like good memories
The Epic Mickey series was my childhood, and when I tried to get Epic Mickey 2 for the Wii again, I could never find it, so I had to get it on Steam for my pc
remember those mini things that looked like disney characters? they had a show on disney junior, and oswald was in 1, so he did leave waste land technically lel.
it's identical to the case of ladyfiszi with the alternative universe of fnaf in the books where the crying child and elizabeth afton michael afton,phone guy,cassidy,gabriel,susie,jeremy,fritz,charlotte emily,don't exist in the books
I got a story that I came up with within epic mickey 3 Mickey and Oswald had just got to Ortensia's house to stay for a bit before Mickey went back to his world. Meanwhile, the Mad Doctor (or "Doc") was at Blot Alley speaking to Ian about the spatters and sweepers. Doc wanted to bring back something mischievous that could destroy wasteland and destroy Mickey's world. It so happens that he needs all the Blotlings to make the big monster. Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia, and Gus haven't heard what Doc was bound to do. Resurrecting the Blot would take years to do so. Just as Gremlin Prescott got his memory back, he was bailed out of Big Bad Pete's Prison. Prescott was going to check out what Doc was doing. Just as he heard what he was doing, he headed to OsTown to tell Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia, and Gus about the news. A couple of years of attempting to stop Doc but failing, doc was starting to become more of an animatronic than a toon. He was still working until finally, the Phantom Blot was resurrected. It was bound to turn the 4 heros to stone and grab Mickey's heart and head up to Mickey's World. Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia and Gus were watching DNN about the resurrected blot. They had to act fast. The blot was now made of other Blotlings from spatters to sweepers to slobbers. Mickey had to thin out the Blotlings making the blot. Oswald, and Gus had to distract the blot. Ortensia had to watch the DNN to get more info about the blot and Doc's plan. Yen Sid also heard the news just watching the world. He needed a new brush, just like Mickey's brush. He started using alchemy. Over down at Wasteland, the blot was still growing, more higher to reach Yen Sid's Lab. When the blot entered, Yen Sid was trying his best to cool it down and turn it into a Blotling that Ian can babysit. When the blot had shrunk, things went back to normal. The people in wasteland were happy and relieved. No one were hurt, just some toons almost turning to a blotling.
That’s even why Epic Mickey 2’s ending did a cliffhanger of the Pete’s saying “Look at them so happy, they’ll never know what hit ‘em! Hahaha!” Before throwing Prescott through the Ventureland projector before the Pete’s jump through the projector as well...
Epic mickey could have been a paradise for a lot of forgotten characters and with epic donald we could hope for more epic characters ending up with a giant crossover epic disney as title
I love epic mickey 2 I don’t understand why people don’t like it btw did you know from a lime said in the game of epic mickey 2 there is a hint to a concept at may have been brought back for epic mickey 3 this is it “but what mickey didn’t know was there was a bigger blot a storm blot” the storm blot was a unused concept for epic mickey 1 basically the concept was the blot fuses with oswald and creates the storm blot let’s just say the concept art is crazy I see why they did not do it but that line being in epic mickey 2 must mean at they thought of bring the storm blot back in epic mickey 3 maybe the petes would have brought back the blot and it would fuse with oswald so who knows if somewhere in Disney’s archives there might be a storm blot model even if unfinished probably could be made complete because modern day tech would probably make the model getting completed much faster so if epic Mickey comes back into existence then I hope they make a storm blot model
im still so sad about this game never making it past the second game. if disney just gave the game a lot more of a chance i think it wouldve went so much farther even though the second game didnt sell well. coporations are a bitch
Disney games senior vice President Sean Shoptaw says that their willing to do more with Disney's classic characters and brands but they don't just want to do remasters they also want to make new games
Here I was hoping if they made a 3rd one Mickey and Oswald would team up with Yen Sid to fight Charles Mintz, you know, the guy responsible for taking Oswald away from Walt in the first place
I used to be an horrible epic mickey fan boy I even got an Oswald and Mickey plush, I'd really love to see the third game come out so bad but, life is life
a game that makes a point about how important forgotten characters are, and how they are effected by being forgotten, ends up getting forgotten by Disney. irony :/
Even more ironic is that they tried to bring oswald back, even getting the rights to him just so he would be forgotten again
Cruel irony.
Isn't it?!
Not anymore
@@IronBrandon22 well of course, but I bet that it's to combat the mouse being copyright free anyways
If the game had performed to their expectations, then they wouldn't have forgotten about them. Blame it on the games performance, not the makers...
With the way Mickey Mouse is currently being portrayed, Epic Mickey 3 is EXACTLY what we need right now
I agree, but they would need to bring back Warren Spector and almost every other member who was involved in the first two games. Plus, with how Disney is nowadays, chances are Epic Mickey 3, if it were revived, would fall under the same problem of Disney meddling to push Warren and company or whoever they get to make the threequel to add ethnicity and many more content that has caused people to hate Disney's current films, there is a chance Epic Mickey 3 will end up bombing if Disney interferred.
Plus, we would need HD remasters of the first two games, which would be pretty much impossible due to the first Epic Mickey being done with Nintendo's involvement.
You know I hope Warren spector and disney interactive will make epic mickey 3 happen
I have epic Mickey 3

Well do you have it the epic mickey 3 game
Disney has so much money and content now that they could bring back epic mickey and Disney infinity. But they won't do it such a shame
i feel like disney treated infinity so much better than epic mickey just because it was a cross over even though it wasnt even selling that well due to skylanders and lego dimensions
Disney Infinity can’t come back the way it was, Skylanders either, because Toys To Life died out
Now that doesn’t mean they can’t do it, but there’s a better way now. Still make physical stuff, but also an option to buy it digitally, this will make it so rare figures are still rare, but the experience is open to more people
My thoughts are that using that method would allow for so much more, especially digital content, like if you have Disney+ you could get one play set for free, or maybe some exclusive versions of characters (like a black and white version of Wanda and Vision)
Honestly I don’t know why they aren’t thinking of this, this would work so well for Disney Infinity, and it could save Skylanders which was a fun franchise

So Disney threw money at Junction Point and forced them to double their size (just to work faster). They had about 110 people for Epic Mickey 1. For Epic Mickey 2 they ramped up to 200 normal employes + 100 in external studios around the world. All those people just had the job to finish Epic Mickey 2 as fast as they can and Warren had to fire them right after. He knew that for month but wasn't leagaly allowed to tell them. Disney/Playdom never had plans for Epic Mickey 3. The only reason for the Epic Mickey 3 artwork and design plans were the two month spare time Disney gave Warren to shut down the studio.
With epic mickey getting a remake I'm curious about the future
they should make epic mickey 3 with julius the cat being jealous of oswald for the same reason oswald was jealous of mickey
Well we are getting a remake of the first game. There might be hope for 3
Coders around the world (not me) should join together and make this game and show it to Disney to prove how awesome this game could be
Disney epic Mickey has a special place in my heart as it was the first game I had played when I was in 2nd grade
Hey now that Epic Mickey Rebrushed is happening, maybe they'll do that for the 2nd game and maybe...consider releasing that 3rd installment
Epic Mickey was a great game to play and after finishing the second game I started to hunt down the third game but only to realize it was not made. I am very displeased and disappointed with Disney shutting down the studio and causing this great game series to come to a cliff hanger. I thought that the cliff hanger at the end was leading to part two of the second game but there was nothing to be found. I would gladly pay for Epic Mickey 3 so that I could get a proper story and see the cartoon world and not just mickeys house. The detail and work put into this Trilogy was a work of magic with the music. Bringing in Fantasia 2000 for the second game really hooked me since Fantasia 2000, as a personal opinion, had some of the best music I have heard.
we are back everybody, the hype train has begun, EPIC MICKEY LIVES!
Epic mickey was such a fantastic game, its God tier.
Funny how the remake was JUST ANNOUNCED !!!
Hopefully with the new remakes they release a new one
I love this channel. this is the kind of content I dig through RUclips for and here it is all on one channel :) could you make an updated video about Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 ? there's been SO many ups and downs recently during the development.
I love this. He says, "there is still no confirmation about the remake to my knowledge" its awesome, that guy found out epic mickey rebrushed
Technically Disney lost copyright over Mickey, so they could work on a epic Mickey 3 out of Disney cover, and not get copyright stricken
3 years later and the first game got remastered lol.
Maybe there’s still hope they updated Epic Mickey 2 recently on steam?
What! Anything new! I have it but didn't notice.
@@hectormanuel8360 sadly not but they just did some fixes after several years
but hey maybe they are gonna do something eventually.
@@Switchkid1 they brought the game in 2013.
@@hectormanuel8360 they updated it again today
I really love epic mickey because it introduced me to my now favourite Disney character Oswald I just love his character so much and I’m glad this game showed me his great character
2 more years and I’m sure someone will release a fan epic Mickey 3
12:16 Hello. I think you meant Snow-White. Other than that, great video.
Hello neddyTom 🐱🐈👍🏻👍🏻😇💛
A sequel hopefully may be possible. Let's hope the remake of the 1st sells well enough.
Technically we did get a 3 with power of illusion
WELL GUESS WHAT GAME IS GETTING A REVAMPPPPP
My favourite Wii game. Second place is Mario Galaxy for me.
Both games are definitely my favorite Wii Games, I can’t make up my mind between either games.
Now we are getting the remake
We are getting a remake of epic Mickey
They’re remaking Epic Mickey, so there is a chance for 3 to be made.
Congratulations 2 years later and the remake of Epic Mickey is finally coming
The fact that both Deus Ex and Epic Mickey were planned as a trilogy and neither became one is hilariously sad.
Holy shit someone made a video on my fav game in 2021 someone other then knows it exist?! Is there still hope?! Answer definitely not. Guess Disney cannot count to 3 either
Well now that were getting rebrushed maybe epic mickey 2 rebrushed will happen and maybe we will get epic mickey 3
He was right about the remake, Epic Mickey 1 Rebrushed
10:33 yup, you never know but now we do
Epic Mickey 3 The Return Of The 2 Heros
The first Epic Mickey needs to be remade.
Anyone think there's hope now?
I think given the news of the remake of the first one, I would have Warren Spector gain a second chance in finishing the Epic Mickey story. However, the biggest change in this would be have Epic Mickey 2 merge story elements with its handheld Spinoff story and give Oswald a slight chance to meet the Disney Family trapped in Wasteland through the Castle of Illusion. Then go into the third game and giving Warren Spector full control in wrapping the story up the way he intended.
The first Disney epic mickey is just not forgotten the musics them selves is okay besides of clock tower but i love going through the old projectiles like good memories
DISNEY EPIC MICKEY 2 WAS MY CHILDHOOD GAME I WAS 6 THE FIRST TIME I PLAYD IT NOW IM 15 AND STILL PLAY IT😊😊❤❤
An Epic Donald and an Epic Goofy. They could’ve been huge successors.
The Epic Mickey series was my childhood, and when I tried to get Epic Mickey 2 for the Wii again, I could never find it, so I had to get it on Steam for my pc
remember those mini things that looked like disney characters? they had a show on disney junior, and oswald was in 1, so he did leave waste land technically lel.
What was the show called??
@@robihood it was named after th mini things
but i think
tsum tsums?
something like that
The remake part aged well lol
I still hope that mickey epic 3 comes out😭Me and my cousins love this gameee
We missed out on brawler Ortensia? WE COULD HAVE HAD BRAWLER ORTENSIA???
it's identical to the case of ladyfiszi with the alternative universe of fnaf in the books where the crying child and elizabeth afton michael afton,phone guy,cassidy,gabriel,susie,jeremy,fritz,charlotte emily,don't exist in the books
So i guess this upcoming disney game was the Epic Mickey Rebrushed? Looks like everyone was correct!
I got a story that I came up with within epic mickey 3
Mickey and Oswald had just got to Ortensia's house to stay for a bit before Mickey went back to his world. Meanwhile, the Mad Doctor (or "Doc") was at Blot Alley speaking to Ian about the spatters and sweepers. Doc wanted to bring back something mischievous that could destroy wasteland and destroy Mickey's world. It so happens that he needs all the Blotlings to make the big monster. Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia, and Gus haven't heard what Doc was bound to do. Resurrecting the Blot would take years to do so. Just as Gremlin Prescott got his memory back, he was bailed out of Big Bad Pete's Prison. Prescott was going to check out what Doc was doing. Just as he heard what he was doing, he headed to OsTown to tell Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia, and Gus about the news. A couple of years of attempting to stop Doc but failing, doc was starting to become more of an animatronic than a toon. He was still working until finally, the Phantom Blot was resurrected. It was bound to turn the 4 heros to stone and grab Mickey's heart and head up to Mickey's World. Mickey, Oswald, Ortensia and Gus were watching DNN about the resurrected blot. They had to act fast. The blot was now made of other Blotlings from spatters to sweepers to slobbers. Mickey had to thin out the Blotlings making the blot. Oswald, and Gus had to distract the blot. Ortensia had to watch the DNN to get more info about the blot and Doc's plan. Yen Sid also heard the news just watching the world. He needed a new brush, just like Mickey's brush. He started using alchemy. Over down at Wasteland, the blot was still growing, more higher to reach Yen Sid's Lab. When the blot entered, Yen Sid was trying his best to cool it down and turn it into a Blotling that Ian can babysit. When the blot had shrunk, things went back to normal. The people in wasteland were happy and relieved. No one were hurt, just some toons almost turning to a blotling.
i Hope Epic Mickey 3 Gets Made!!!
Wait, there was gonna be a Epic Mickey 3?
You didn’t know???
That’s even why Epic Mickey 2’s ending did a cliffhanger of the Pete’s saying “Look at them so happy, they’ll never know what hit ‘em! Hahaha!” Before throwing Prescott through the Ventureland projector before the Pete’s jump through the projector as well...
Wish some studio remasters the first 2 games and launches the 3rd 😔
Epic mickey could have been a paradise for a lot of forgotten characters and with epic donald we could hope for more epic characters ending up with a giant crossover epic disney as title
I love epic mickey 2 I don’t understand why people don’t like it btw did you know from a lime said in the game of epic mickey 2 there is a hint to a concept at may have been brought back for epic mickey 3 this is it “but what mickey didn’t know was there was a bigger blot a storm blot” the storm blot was a unused concept for epic mickey 1 basically the concept was the blot fuses with oswald and creates the storm blot let’s just say the concept art is crazy I see why they did not do it but that line being in epic mickey 2 must mean at they thought of bring the storm blot back in epic mickey 3 maybe the petes would have brought back the blot and it would fuse with oswald so who knows if somewhere in Disney’s archives there might be a storm blot model even if unfinished probably could be made complete because modern day tech would probably make the model getting completed much faster so if epic Mickey comes back into existence then I hope they make a storm blot model
im still so sad about this game never making it past the second game. if disney just gave the game a lot more of a chance i think it wouldve went so much farther even though the second game didnt sell well. coporations are a bitch
And now here we are with an Epic Mickey remaster on the way ^w^
Disney games senior vice President Sean Shoptaw says that their willing to do more with Disney's classic characters and brands but they don't just want to do remasters they also want to make new games
Im happy that the 1st game is getting remade!
12:15 That's Snow White, actually. 🤓
This new game better get a epic mickey 3 idea in nintendo's mind at least!
Here I was hoping if they made a 3rd one Mickey and Oswald would team up with Yen Sid to fight Charles Mintz, you know, the guy responsible for taking Oswald away from Walt in the first place
Isn't the Third Game Epic Mickey: Power Of Illusion?
No, it’s a spin-off.
@@APlatypus oh
Wait some people remember This game
I never understood why all this stuff happened me and my dad would have loved a third one, would have been sweet
IT COULD HAPPEN NOW PEOPLE🎉🎉🎉
12:15 Did you seriously call Snow White sleeping beauty? Sleeping beauty isn't even the name of the other princess, it's Aurora.
If I ever get a job at the big bois at Disney I’m making sure this happens
I used to be an horrible epic mickey fan boy I even got an Oswald and Mickey plush, I'd really love to see the third game come out so bad but, life is life
epic micky rebrush was taking that long wow
Hey, ik this is 2 years old but did we ever get the game there trying to remake? 15:00
Yes.
Make a Disney Epic Mickey 3 on Nintendo Wii!
While I have only played power of illusion I n 3ds I have always been interested in the series since seeing the cover art in a store back in the day
Welp, Epic Mickey 3 and a remake of 2 are now possible since they currently working on a remake of the first game!! 🥳 🎉 🪅
that's a shame. i wanted to see an epic mickey 3, epic mickey race and epic donald
That was snow white not princess aurora
The real epic mickey enjoyers probably going nuts at the new news rn. I know i am
