I really enjoyed Epic Mickey. I really loved the idea of all these lighthearted characters merged in a dark/tragic atmosphere.
And who can forget that touching ending.
This was really cool, its great to see a guy that sees the human value of his work rather than material things
He’s so humble about it. What a guy.
I want an Epic Mickey 3
Bumblemus Prime so do I
Bumblemus Prime so do i
If they can't do a 3rd game they could remaster it.
I'd love if Epic Mickey got another sequel, because I played the heck out of one and two, and since I'm a Disney fanboy it was right up my alley.
Agreed! Epic Mickey 3 would be a day 1 buy for me!
I remember playing the first epic Mickey on wii 😭 good memory!
yeah,honestley i wish the series could continue........maybeas a crossover with mario. It would have elements of epic mickey 1 and mario oddyssey! a crossover between mario and mickey is something disney has expressed interust in before.
The camera in Epic Mickey was fine, the IGN reviewer was exaggerating
This was so heart touching.
Seems according to some research online, that Ortensia did make an appearance in a 1927 cartoon with a different name possibly. But she is actually part of the history it seems...
phantomliger2012 He basically means that his team named the character Ortensia and created their own personality for her.
@@BrerOswald Film critic and historian Charles Solomon once took the opportunity in his review of the 1988 television special "Totally Minnie" to gripe about how for decades Minnie had no personality and that "female animated characters have so often been ciphers". One of Webster's Dictionary's definitions of cipher is "one that has no weight, worth, or influence". This could be seen as a reflection of the overall sexism in animation.
This is a great segment. I want more content like this from more developers. We should be looking at the human impact of video games much more in the games media.
When you hear him speak of his work, can you call him and his team anything other than artists?
Remaster 1 and 2 for switch, all while secretly making the 3rd entry? Pls?
Wailmerboy for all consoles
Wailmerboy
I hope part 3 wouldn't be on a console that I don't have :(
If only Disney can sell the license for this..
Maybe 1, 2 isn’t worthy of a remaster
1 is getting a remake
I like the game, especially the first one on Wii.
Oswald the lucky rabbit is awesome
"Because of YOUR video game"
-IGN host to Warren Specter after Specter had already stated that there's often a tendency among the press to attribute the creation of a game to a single person to IGN
Great job IGN you done did it again
Warren Specter said the same thing years ago. I like his humbleness.
He deserves to be proud. He made a game that delighted many. It made me even more passionate about Classic Disney than I was before, and for that, I have to thank Mr. Spector and his team.
I feel so bad for Warren. I wish Epic Mickey 2 had taken off. There was so much potential with that series. Also such great fan mail. I loved the first epic mickey. And even the one on 3DS had so much potential. Maybe someday it'll come back.
This game still has a big place in my heart even if i dont have the game anymore i still have the special nunchuck that came with game
Epic Mickey was good. People didn't like it?
Tobey Peters part 2
+Tobey Peters Most people bitched it out due to the camera. Others were upset that most of the leaked concept art regarding the game was ignored. I'll say this, it's certainly not anywhere near as bad as its sequel.
the sequel was good............but only the wii version
the Wii version Is great
it was on the Wii.
Epic mickey was indeed magical, and it captured that nostalgia of early Disney that seems lost now a day
I don't care what anyone says, I love Epic Mickey, and I even really enjoyed Epic Mickey 2 and the 3DS game. I want a third one so bad-and I want more Oswald!!
I always remember watching the E3 2010 Epic Mickey reveal as an early teen and thinking the game and this guy were really cool. Don't know why I never got it.
A switch remaster might just turn our heads
But I don't have a Switch
The 2 Epic Mickey games were and are AMAZING and you can see all the love that went into them both PLUS they were a breathe of fresh air during a time where FPS games were the norm. Thank you Mr. Spector for having the courage and vision to lead the team that created the incredible worlds realized in these 2 Epic Mickey games and thank you for putting such strong support behind the Wii especially with the first Epic Mickey game during a time many developers said the Wii was underpowered and could not produce amazing graphics. You proved them wrong with these games and proved them to just be lazy! These games are 2 more reasons I will not be selling my Nintendo Wii anytime soon. BTW they look amazing via component cables. Would love to see an Epic Mickey 3!
Awww I'm getting teary eyed just from listening to his stories!
some really great moments in this interview. well done
"Ortensia appeared in the Oswald shorts starting with The Banker's Daughter, replacing Oswald's former love interest, a much more feminine and sultry rabbit named Fanny in production materials. Ortensia's original name during the production of the Oswald shorts was Sadie (as referenced in the title of the animated short: Sagebrush Sadie). However, the names for Oswald's love interests were never widely publicized, which is likely the reason she was given a new name in Epic Mickey, following the illiteration pattern of Mickey and Minnie's mirrored relationship."
[According to: disney.wikia]
i want remake epic mickey 1 in ps4, or your hd version. i played in the wii this game and i love it
and pls, FIX THE CAMERA! i hate the camera...
VMST same
And the dialogue. It would be much more powerful to hear these words instead of just seeing them, especially since most of these characters haven't talked in a while. Actually, Oswald and the Gremlins never talked at all!
I'm so happy to be working on a fan game of Epic Mickey! Warren created great games, but Epic Mickey is a gem!
Thank you for Epic Mickey, one of my childhood games and my favorite game of all time.
I love both of the Epic Mickeys.
I remember playing the first one and thought how cool it was. I just loved all of it. The squeal, to me, was great too. I was able to play with someone else (one of my sisters for example) and just bond over that game. This doesn't mean I don't remember the flaws of both games. The camera took me a little bit to get used to, especially the parts you can't really move it at all. (Honestly I had a harder time jumping on some platforms more than anything). I also know that the plot for EM2 wasn't as strong as the first one was. But that's was you have to do. Overlook the flaws to see the true beauty and those games were a masterpiece to me.
I honestly do hope that there'll be an Epic Mickey 3 (mostly because of the ending scene in 2) also I want to see how the graphics of today might change it and maybe fix some of the maneuvering flaws it had.
In short, I still love Epic Mickey to this day and I hope that the ones who have played it kept it close in their hearts.
This makes my day.
: )
We want epic Mickey 3
Please please give us Epic Mickey 3!!! It’s too cool of a series not to be continued.
Somebody remaster this game. I don't know how they do it, just do it so it will be good. This game is too wonderful to die.
I remember being a teenager in a middle class family that couldn't afford the luxury of current consoles. I remember watching a in depth trailer for this on G4 (which was a gaming channel on tv, idk if it's still around) and how you could decide which path you went on by painting or erasing blew my mind in the best of ways.
mr. spector seems like such a nice man. and for sure, who cares about the camera or whatever, if the game meant something to you it will always be with you no matter the flaws you will have a special connection with it
bought a Wii specifically for epic mickey because I loved the nostalgia feel of the old cartoons with the levels
Epic Mickey is my favourite game of all time. I would love to see a remaster of the first game.
Epic Mickey
Nice!!! I just bought epic Mickey for my nieces yesterday on Xbox 360 and they LOVED IT!!!! It's not the type of game that I would play but I did and do see how people could enjoy it plus kids love cartoon adventures...cheers
PC-The Unicorn part 2 yeah.
Epic Mickey 2...
If only the game was Re released on Switch
I'm actually playing through Epic Mickey again now. No other game has as much heart or a better story than Epic Mickey, and I'd be surprised if anything ever does match it. Plus, as a huge fan of the Disney parks, playing the game in a way allows me to visit some of my favorite places in the Magic Kingdom.
Hell yeah this is real, epic Mickey was a unique lovely experience, and the story he tells is truly amazing
The ambient feeling tat I got from Epic Mickey was amazing! Dark, magical and fun.
Every game has its problems, they created a wonderful thing with epic mickey. It was one of the many reasons i got a wii.
That game is a masterpiece of game design and a love letter to Disney fans.
I want an HD remaster for Epic Mickey on PS4.
Given how those two games came out (especially the second one), high point is sort of generous
His last few lines are directed to you then
Ah I remember getting the first game for Christmas for the Wii, it was amazing! This guy is awesome btw
They may have given her her canonical name, but the character was a part of Disney history for decades.
The camera has some problems, but the game is still awesome. I absolutely love and always will. One of my favorite Mickey game. I also love the 3DS one.
Epic Mickey was my childhood.
I want an Epic Mickey 3 with online co-op.
I think we need a epic Mickey 3 cuz the ending of the second game
Epic Mickey is one of the best games I've ever played
Can we get more stuff like this IGN
1st one was amazing
Please bring Epic Mickey 3 not as a movie but as a stand-alone film sequel
Epic Mickey was actually a really good game. Needs to come back.
I honestly never beat the first epic mickey (I got stuck in the haunted mansion organ thing in 4th grade)and I only played the beginning of the 2nd game but I loved what I played and I have to replay everything at some point to actually finish it(now Ive played more games and have lots more experience so I can probably beat it now)
We want epic mickey 3 or at least an HD remake of the first one
Epic Mickey is one of the most memorable games I've ever played. It's possibly the best game Disney has made without help from Capcom or Square Enix.
Epic Mickey was a f$&king masterpiece!!!!
I'm sorry, did you just try to say Ortensia was something you made up? Because you're lying. Her name was originally Sadie, but she was in the Oswald cartoons and continued to appear as "Kitty" after Walt lost the rights to them. You just gave her a better name and a personality. I think you need to rewatch the cartoons.
PyroGothNerd still, the fact that they use Ortensia, rather than an earlier incarnation, makes the difference.
One copyright synopsis for The Banker's Daughter actually labels her as "Fanny". That was also the name for the female rabbit (who had the surname Cottontail) that appeared in "Oh Teacher!", "The Mechanical Cow," "Great Guns," and "All Wet".
More important, however, is that Disney did _not_ lose the rights to Oswald. The copyright was owned by Universal from the start. In a 1953 article for The Portsmouth Times, Disney himself said that he didn't own the copyright to Oswald.
I just bought Epic Mickey today, what a great coincidence
what a nice guy
I've got the mug he was talking about. they are available on Disney store.com
same here but remaster and add 1 and 2 as a bouns
I thought Epic Mickey was a great game and honestly the only flaw I had with it was the camera. It would have been great if they borrowed the mechanics from Tomb Raider on Wii for the camera controls. Other then that I loved the game!
Well, the first one was good. Not sure about 2 but I doubt it was bad.
Did everyone else thought that it's called Micki Epic?
Took Ryan a little while to get the question out, huh?
Loved that game
Please make Epic Mickey 3 game.
I bought the collector’s edition 10/10
Hey she's kinda not made up she was in the cartoon "Rival Romeo" 🐰🍀💙😻
But I'm guessing you were inspired by those cartoons
Either way, I LOVE Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Ortensia the Cat 🍀🐰💙😻
I have epic mickey 1 and 2 and 3
I got the second one never played the first one
what the hell is recoil!?
Always wanted to play this but... the Wii was never a compelling console.
Really? Twilight Princess, Xenoblade Chronicles, The Last Story, Pandora's Tower, Monster Hunter Tri, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, and of course Epic Mickey are some great games on Wii. Not to mention the backwards compatibility with Gamecube.
The above games mentioned, plus Red Steel 2, Madworld, Okami, the De Blob duology, Prince of Persia, Monster Hunter Tri, Zack and Wiki, Battalion Wars 2, A Boy and his Blob, Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Strikers Charged, Donkey Kong Country Returns, Spectrobes, Mushroom Men, Mini Ninjas, Sonic Colors and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom are not compelling games? You're missing out on classics.
i thought i saw ortensia in some of the old cartoons...?
GamingDan You did. She just didn't have an official name back then. I have no idea what he's talking about.
@@BobsCookie4 He's probably being Machiavellian.
Great game.
this needs needs to remastered in HD
search on TH-cam the big father
beautiful👌
I bought epic mickey 4 times
I played and loved the first one. Is Epic Mickey 2 worth buying? I've heard that 2 is worse than the first game
2 is a 8/10
