GameStop is offering an Oswald Ears Hat with pre-orders of Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. The bonus is also eligible for the 3DS title Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion.

You can pre-order Epic Mickey 2 on Wii here and Power of Illusion here.

Strangely, the hat isn’t listed on the Wii U page. Hopefully that’ll change soon…

Thanks to Streety for the tip.
