Consumers will be able to purchase Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion through two different options. Disney Interactive officially confirmed at a recent event that the game will see a dual release at retail and on the 3DS eShop when it becomes available next month.

This news only applies to North America at the moment. Although it would certainly make sense, Disney hasn’t said if Power of Illusion will also be released on the European and Japanese eShops.

Crashmo

– Mallo and Papa Blox are back
– Poppy, Papa’s grand-niece, is in the game as well

– Game is structured like Pushmo
– There are levels comprised of big, colorful blocks

– Blocks that don’t have anything under them will fall

– New to Crashmo: Mallo can grab and move blocks forward and backward as well as side to side
– He can also pull out blocks onto the surface he’s standing on
– Additionally, Mallo can balance the Tetris-esque blocks on his head
– Movement is limited in these instances
– Without a solid support wall, players must find ways of keeping blocks suspended by moving other blocks into place
– Can view puzzles from multiple angles
– Level editor included
– Can use QR codes to share levels
– Later levels will feature doors and other mechanics

Fluidity: Spin Cycle

– Action takes place within the wizard’s magical storybook
– One chapter features a prehistoric landscape willed with dinosaurs
– Dinosaurs move in response to the tilting of the 3DS
– Water usually doesn’t fall to the top if you turn the 3DS upside-down
– Your rank is determined based on how much water you retain and how long it takes you to complete a stage
– Drops in the game are alive
– When you reach the rainbow drop, your puddle transforms into a smiling anthropomorphic water drop who dances with the rescued rainbow drop
– Collect puzzle pieces to unlock mini-games
– One mini-game for each chapter
– Mini-games: Gather Control, Ice Climb, Cloud Run, and Ice Cannon

There are a bunch of classic Mega Man games already up on the Japanese 3DS eShop. At this time, the same can’t be said for the North American and European stores.

There’s no need to fret, though. Capcom has indicated that there will be news for the west soon.

When asked about the lack of overseas Mega Man releases, Capcom’s Christian Svensson said:

“Patience… we’ll have things to discuss on this topic in the future.”
