I have to say that i believe that in kingdom hearts all the games are important to the main story since (even chain of memories) all of them contain clues to the the plot.
I completely agree with that. I mean, we have 358's explanation of Roxas and Axel's motives in KH2, the importance of the data worlds created during Re:Coded, and especially the Mark of Mastery exam inside 3D. So, Kingdom Hearts actually uses its games in handhelds to further its story. You might miss things if you don't at least familiarize yourself with the plots of these games.
Woah woah WOAH!!! Hold your horses, because they recently announced a remake of the first game for modern consoles and PC!!! Maybe check it out when it comes out?
Maybe they were planning some DLC to add those things that you mentioned, but then Junction Point closed down so they couldn't add anything else. Just a theory!
@Dylan Lawrence Well i woudnt give it up that high. This game, while not that bad,is far from perfect. To point out the elephant in the room, this was suppose to be an Epic Mickey spin off yet they decided to add power of illusion elements for some reason. The box art is misleading, by looking at it you will think that like its predecesors is going to be a 3d platformer,but in reality its just a side scroll 2d platformer (i dont mind if they wanted to make a 2d platformer but cmon,dont put misleading). The game took away the ability to befriend or destroying enemies with paint or thinner (Bonus:the Spatters;who are Blots that can be befreinded or destroyed with either paint or thinner,appear in the game yet you cannot befriend or kill them with thinner,you can only jump on them and their dead). Adding well recognized Disney characters while deleting the forgotten characters destroys the plot of the original games, which was being able to interact with the forgotten characters. There is not much you can do with you brush in Wasteland compared to the original games. Like ED505 stated, the Little Mermaid level is hard and the game is even shorter than Epic Mickey 2. The blots are almost nowhere to be seen, the only ones that appear are the Spatters,which dont show up that much. The story,while really good, doesnt really work well with the Epic Mickey franchise.Mickey's paintbrush attacks got nerfed for some reason. The idea of mixing Castle of illusion( which was a colorful adventure game) with Epic Mickey(which is a dark and twisted Disney game) just doesnt work. Conclusion: 5/10. While the the story is really interesting and the gameplay is fun, it just doesnt work with a dark and twisted Disney game like Epic Mickey. Epic Mickey 3 would of been a much better title.
Tigger: And the sad part is they didn't bother to include us. I mean, okay the 100 Acre Wood itself isn't that exiting, but you'd thing a Heffalump or Woozle would sneak its way into the game. Heck that's what I was hoping for in Kingdom Hearts.
Do you want to know what I hate about this game? Why they didn't use the engine for the first Epic Mickey game. The 3DS is about as powerful as the GameCube, and so is the Wii. There's no reason for this game to not be like the first Epic Mickey game.
Nostalgia Works that's not entirely true, the Wii is about twice as powerful as the GameCube. But honestly... that's not saying much, twice as powerful is a pretty small upgrade from one console to the next.
My cousin has this game, she's 9 years old, and she likes this game, and I asked her: "What rating would you give this game?", and she said in her own words "A 9.5/10". That's the same rating Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon was given by IGN, GameSpot, GameXplain, etc.!
wait a minute, on the game case at the wonderland room, there's the red queen, and on the one I have it shows the mad hatter, and it made me think that I'll battle him as a boss level. Defective much?
Great review Animat i do have do say i got both Games on Release date Power of Illusion is a lot better then Power of TWO basically i have your same opinion with your review of the game also what HeavyLight17 said are you going do Epic Mickey Files on the charters of this game
Aright, Foodfight comes out on Video-On-Demand tomorrow, review it. It's not a CINEMATIC film (but you reviewed non-cinematic film stuff like both Epic Mickey video games before) and it came out in 2012 (but you reviewed Arriety, which came out in 2010), but you just HAVE to review it. It needs to be seen to be believed, apparently.
Honestly, when he said "many games do spinoffs" The first thing that came into mind was "Chain of Memories,358/2 Days,Birth by Sleep,Coded" Although, i really liked all the KH Spinoffs (except that trainwreck CoM, and i will never know why it got remade)
Hey Animat, did you check out Ducktales remastered yet. Awesome remake of the NES classic, plus, they're remaking Mickey Mouse Castle of Illusion, the classic Sega Megadrive game. check them out, liked to see your opinion on those.
If not, they should be! If Epic Mickey 3 debuts, They need their own level in a BIG way! I'm still angry at Square Enix for constantly skipping over my other favorite Disney movie, The Jungle Book for the Kingdom hearts games!
I'm still thinking about buying at retail or downloading it from the Nintendo eShop, but if this game gets ported to the Wii U and the story and gameplay gets extended, just shut up and take my money/eShop money!
The game is good though. However I only played it on the demo version. Still they could put more into the game. Good review Mat. I hope you'll make more video game review's.
Only that the plot in almost every "side game" (especially Birth by Sleep) is at least partially crucial to the overal story of Kingdom Hearts...... I seriously think Birth by Sleep is worth of being known of as an equal to Kingdom Hearts II in quality and substance. Sure it is a prequel but its like Crisis Core was as a prequel. Really stands out on its own yet is also extremely relevant and important to the overall story.
I got all the epic mickey games and this has to be the one I've died the most on. Like my god Also, it is really cheap now, I got my copy on amazon for eight bucks. Not only that, I also managed to get epic mickey 2, and an oswald plush!
Please don't kill me *hides behind hulk* but I have only played epic Mickey 2... so I hope that investing money in the other games will be worth it considering my experience with reviews and the 2nd game....
I still haven’t finished this game, I’m stuck on the last level This was the main reason I got a 3DS and... I was a little disappointed.. It’s been a long time since i played it last, and I’ve grown a lot in that amount of time, so I’ll probably have a different opinion of it, but I guess I just don’t like 2D games, or I haven’t played many good ones Epic Mickey means a lot to me, it’s what got me into gaming AND Disney!! I got it when I was like 5, and it really has greatly effected me! So I really want to like this game, but it was pretty boring, thankfully other games like Tomodachi life and Kid Icarus uprising made buying the 3DS worth it!
Unfortunately, Junction Point closed down and the chance of an Epic Mickey 3 is extremely low.
There never will be one
This aged well
Epic Mickey
Rebrushed
9 days later, Junction Point Studios closed...
Oof
try more video games
cause there are a lot who are half-Disney
like
-Disney universe
-kingdom hearts
-spectrobes

Sammy B Couldn't have said it better myself
One thing that I didn't like about Epic Mickey 2 and power of illusion is there both not as dark and magical as the first game.
Woah woah WOAH!!! Hold your horses, because they recently announced a remake of the first game for modern consoles and PC!!! Maybe check it out when it comes out?

A Game Theory!... that joke was not only bad, but this comment is 7 years old
@@knatred1489 damn
So the reason it's bad is because it's the shortest of them all and the little mermaid level?....ouch.
He didn't say it's bad at all

At least Power of Illusion gives us more characters for the Epic Mickey Files than Epic Mickey 2.
Well, both Power of Illusion and Henry Hatsworth are made by developer Dreamrift Studios.
The Kingdom Hearts side games are pretty much always very importand for the complete story :/
I'm a big fan of king Mickey from Disney's Kingdom hearts
Tigger: And the sad part is they didn't bother to include us. I mean, okay the 100 Acre Wood itself isn't that exiting, but you'd thing a Heffalump or Woozle would sneak its way into the game. Heck that's what I was hoping for in Kingdom Hearts.
0:43 that's what I said when holding How to Train your Dragon and it's sequel.
Maybe this will say to Disney Infinity 2.0 and Disney Infinity. Only if ElectricDragon505 review Disney Infinity 2.0!!!
Do you want to know what I hate about this game? Why they didn't use the engine for the first Epic Mickey game. The 3DS is about as powerful as the GameCube, and so is the Wii. There's no reason for this game to not be like the first Epic Mickey game.

You forgot to say that no Gremlins in this game and no paint or thinner path
Love that Die song. In fact you can use that song to describe 10% or 15% of Dragon Ball Z.
9:07 this part makes me sad now that the studio is gone.....and it doesent help that they were making epic mickey kart
You see some of the stuff on the case, it’s actually false advertising!
No Epic Mickey 3. In fact, you'll never hear the name "Epic Mickey" from Disney again. They shut down Junction Point.
6:29 It's called false advertising, Animat
This was my first 3ds game.
There's another Epic Mickey Game!? How did I not here?
This game is why people hate water levels
I thought for a moment he didn't like Power of Illusion in the intro.
RIP EM3
I agree with you with the Little Mermaid stage, it is tough! I spent more time in that stage than the final boss! Even the final boss was challenge!
Epic Mickey 2 is underrated and overhated,power of illusion is ok at best and you need to stop hating it,
Hey animat since u reviewed the epic mickey games and since u like games could u review the kingdom hearts games?
I personally like Disney Epic Mickey 2 better than Power of Illusion.
It's a shame that we never got Epic Mickey 3, due to Junction Point Studios being closed down........................
I know 😭😭😭😭😭😭
The Masked Mewtwo man that sucks
Dude you should do a reiview of what forgotten characters you think should be epic mickey 3, it's worth a shot
Can you do a countdown on the saddest Disney moments or greatest Disney villains?
Any news on the Pixar lookback? I'd love to see part 2 :)
My cousin has this game, she's 9 years old, and she likes this game, and I asked her: "What rating would you give this game?", and she said in her own words "A 9.5/10". That's the same rating Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon was given by IGN, GameSpot, GameXplain, etc.!
There should be a three because at the end it talks about pete or petes planning to to take over wasteland
Unfortunately, there is no Epic Mickey 3😭😭😭😭😭
wait a minute, on the game case at the wonderland room, there's the red queen, and on the one I have it shows the mad hatter, and it made me think that I'll battle him as a boss level. Defective much?
You said exactly what I thought about the game.
Yes, Yes it does
@luigimarioman1 Allegiant. Nuff said, and don't wanna go back to the nightmares.
wheres your next video? it's been a week.
Isn't just Mizrabel just Maleficent?
calebxcuyugan She disguises as many different villains. She mostly would be Maleficent.
Animat! Can you please make an entire series where you review video games? Just like movies!
background music?
Sort of. They technically are forgotten (unless you count the Pooh's Adventures series) due to the controversy over the Song of the South's content.
I need to go buy this game. Is it for the DS or the 3DS
Great review Animat i do have do say i got both Games on Release date Power of Illusion is a lot better then Power of TWO basically i have your same opinion with your review of the game also what HeavyLight17 said are you going do Epic Mickey Files on the charters of this game

Who got a 3ds game ad before this vid
im turning 0:41 into a meme
5:18. So it's like The world ends with you?
Honestly, when he said "many games do spinoffs" The first thing that came into mind was "Chain of Memories,358/2 Days,Birth by Sleep,Coded" Although, i really liked all the KH Spinoffs (except that trainwreck CoM, and i will never know why it got remade)
Where's the music come from at the credits?

9:06
Sadly, that will never happen. Since Junction Point closed today due to the commercial failure of Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two.
How are you able to have the "Electric Dragon Productions" banner on your channel page when it isn't your channel name or Google+ name?
Mat does the Hatbox ghost count as forgotten?
My power of illusions game case has the mad hatter in place of the queen. Odd.
0:46 How I felt when holding Allegiant and MockingJay
But which are you talking to when you say "WHY AREN'T YOU AS GOOD AS THIS?!"?
I'm still thinking about buying at retail or downloading it from the Nintendo eShop, but if this game gets ported to the Wii U and the story and gameplay gets extended, just shut up and take my money/eShop money!
The game is good though. However I only played it on the demo version. Still they could put more into the game. Good review Mat. I hope you'll make more video game review's.
man your so hilarious xD !!!
Damn. False advertising on the game cover.....
No it had to be rushed to meet a deadline wich explains why those charcters are in there
How did you record the 3ds footage?
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! epic files next
A lot of those Kingdom Hearts 'side' games actually were integral to the plot... And that made people complain too.
This game is similar to Kingdom Hearts for some reason.😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 Did you guys know that?
i'm starting to question G4's ratings.
wait...mizrabel is different from malificent?
It better be good!!!!
8:48
Good video.
This is Epic Mickey 4: The Power Of Illusions
Only that the plot in almost every "side game" (especially Birth by Sleep) is at least partially crucial to the overal story of Kingdom Hearts...... I seriously think Birth by Sleep is worth of being known of as an equal to Kingdom Hearts II in quality and substance. Sure it is a prequel but its like Crisis Core was as a prequel. Really stands out on its own yet is also extremely relevant and important to the overall story.
mines too
Please give me the 3ds power of illusion game and deliver it to my house? Please???
you know they should of put the hatbox ghost in the game and if there IS a third game that is coming in 2014 then the hatbox ghost should be in it
you forgot path painter
Oswald on hid Knees: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo
Hi.
Disney Epic Mickey 3 The Power Of Illsousions
lol!
I got all the epic mickey games and this has to be the one I've died the most on. Like my god
Also, it is really cheap now, I got my copy on amazon for eight bucks. Not only that, I also managed to get epic mickey 2, and an oswald plush!
I just wish the game had more bosses
Next Game, New member of the Wasteland: Jar Jar Binks.
What unit 8:01
If your reading this animat u r the best
Take that yeaaaa
there are no Epic Mickey 3 at all.
*is
Cool video man
Yeah, it's sad to go back and watch these reviews and hear him talk about it knowing that the likelihood of the 3rd game is basically nonexistent now
8:37 I got it for $15
3DS
Please don't kill me *hides behind hulk* but I have only played epic Mickey 2... so I hope that investing money in the other games will be worth it considering my experience with reviews and the 2nd game....
Look at the thwomps they're phwomps lol
because i dont own a 3DS
awwwww....
I still haven’t finished this game, I’m stuck on the last level
This was the main reason I got a 3DS and... I was a little disappointed..
It’s been a long time since i played it last, and I’ve grown a lot in that amount of time, so I’ll probably have a different opinion of it, but I guess I just don’t like 2D games, or I haven’t played many good ones
Epic Mickey means a lot to me, it’s what got me into gaming AND Disney!! I got it when I was like 5, and it really has greatly effected me! So I really want to like this game, but it was pretty boring, thankfully other games like Tomodachi life and Kid Icarus uprising made buying the 3DS worth it!
Might be due to the game being released on the Wii U. Since the game's controlled for the Wii U was terrible.
hey just like sonic boom 3ds is better then the wiiu
:0 u Riview games?! Do SpyroTheDragon
