Eurogamer has done some digging (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/spector-making-epic-mickey-for-wii) and discovered some concept art (http://www.fredgambino.co.uk/film_tv_thmbs.html) for Warren Spector's long rumored Epic Mickey title.

Evidence has emerged that Warren Spector's Junction Point Studios is working on a game codenamed "Epic Mickey" for the Wii, offering a dark, steampunk-style take on Mickey Mouse and the Magic Kingdom.

Most of the evidence comes from the rumour-hunter's faithful friend - concept artists' websites - and appears to corroborate a Gamasutra report from late last year that first identified the "Epic Mickey" codename.

If this thing can be as good as the old Ducktales games by Capcom, I'll gladly buy in.

Looks awesome.

Which means nobody on the Wii will buy it. Well, perhaps the same 50,000 people who buy the conduit and mad world.

The crumbly Goofy looks like a nightmare for kids.

Prediction: will not ship.

Also, since when were they making a "Star Beast" movie? One of my favorite books as a kid...

I'd be up for some dark Mickey action. Wait, that came out wrong.

Competely agreed. Top of my NES stack when I'm feeling nostalgic. <tries to get moon level music out of head>
