We’re going to get Epic Mickey 2 news sooner rather than later, and it now seems as though the first information will be revealed in one week.
GameTrailers TV is teasing “a blowout of rather large proportions” for Warren Spector’s new project. The show will be debuting the first trailer and gameplay of the game which, based on previous clues, has to be some sort of sequel to Epic Mickey.
“A Blowout of Rather Large Proportions
GTTV will have the world exclusive reveal trailer and first gameplay anywhere of Warren Spector’s next yet-to-be-announced game. It’s going to be …notably significant.”
We should be getting followup reports at the end of the month. Nintendo Power’s next issue will likely focus on Epic Mickey 2, and Disney will be holding a conference to make an official announcement.

Dynasty Warriors Vs. Nintendo costume details, Mii inclusion revealed
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Tecmo Koei has sent out an update about Dynasty Warriors Vs., explaining the game’s inclusion of Nintendo costumes and use of Miis.
The previously reported Link (Zelda: Skyward Sword) and Zero Suit Samus (Metroid: Other M) costumes will be included in the card itself rather than through DLC. Both can be accessed once the tutorial mode has been completed. Dynasty Warriors Vs.’s official site states that players will be able to use the costumes in the “My General” character creation mode.
Here’s a bit of additional news: Miis can be found in the game as well. They’ll provide you with a variety of items during battle when you’re experiencing trouble.

EB Games destroying Donkey Kong 3D displays
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
EB Games really, really wants to quell the Donkey Kong 3D rumors. The retailer has asked all stores to destroy the displays for the non-existent game, as well as boxes for Kirby 3D and Luigi’s Mansion 2 for Wii.
When you think about it, it doesn’t make much sense as to why these displays were added to the stores in the first place. At least EB Games/GameStop is looking to move past the situation…
