I wish I could see the scans.

Let me tell you about a website called Google

Let me tell you about a website called Google

Is that one of those new things on the ... euh ... "winter net", or what was it called?

 

[electroplankton]

Saw the other screenshots, there's also Captain Hook! It looks great btw! Aesthetically, it really is the follow-up of Illusion series.

You must work for Nintendo!

 

[BHK3]

Found the scans, maybe I shouldn't ignore the spanish links.

 

[Altazor]

finally saw the other screenshots (scans).

OH MY.

 

[Shiggy]

You must work for Nintendo!

I was in charge of the network system technology for the Nintendo Wii at NTD. Perhaps I'll do it once again for Wii U, but there are no real plans for that right now. After all, there are still almost 6 months left until that platform launches. The network system doesn't need to be ready at launch.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

This game looks great, and it makes me hope that we get some more big-name 3Ds games that utilize sprites.

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Wow. I can't wait to see this in 3D. My daughter is in a Peter Pan/Captain Hook faze. If I showed her a game like this right now, she wouldn't let me play my 3DS again!

DAY 1!

 

[PixyJunket]

As odd as it may be (and it may not be), but 2D has been my favorite use of the 3D on the system.

Metroid V in the style of Zero Mission with 3D depth. These are the things I dream of.

 

[Worthintendo]

Darn having no luck finding the scans, really want to see what it looks like

 

[Maedhros]

It looks really nice.

 

[weeaboo]

Looks glorious, día uno!

 

[BruiserBear]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!

Nostalgia overload confirms my purchase alone.

I think that was the main reason they made the Genesis reference.

 

[Nemo]

Looks really good! I think I prefer Mickey Mania as the best looking, but it still looks great. Maybe direct feed screens might make me think otherwise tho!

Try Nintendo!

 

[Seven Force]

Saw the scans, looks pretty awesome.

 

[WillyFive]

The visuals are very retro. Hopefully the animation is good so that they look somewhat modern and not so much like a GBA game.

 

[iavi]

Saw all the scans. Looking fantastic.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

One of those shots can't be in-game, right?

 

[FoneBone]

One of those shots can't be in-game, right?

One of them is definitely concept art, yes

 

[jump_button]

One of them is definitely concept art, yes

I think you miss the point of hand draw

 

[Salvadora]

Looking fantastic. Need to see it in motion though.

 

[PixyJunket]

Holy carp. The pixel art (and the concept art) for Power of Illusion FAR beats out the Wii games for capturing that retro Mickey look.

I am STUNNED.

 

[Herbspiceguy]

I think Hook's ship looks outstanding, but I don't see what's so special about the sprites and other levels.

 

[Dicer]

Saw the scan, messed my pants, can NOT wait.

 

[FoneBone]

Are you blind?

 

[jump_button]

Are you blind?

maybe not game play but on other hand the hook one looks close so and got heart so

Agreed, the look is more suited to the pixel art than a 3D model.

Also liking how the game looks like a total callback to SNES/Genesis days.

 

[nordique]

Wow, very impressed it uses sprites


This is stronger-than-PS2 level hardware we're talking about; how many ps2 games used sprites?


Great to see, hope this isn't the end of sprite games. 3D on this will look fabulous.

 

[DarkYabu]

WOW just saw the screens for the 3DS version! This is the most inspired decision Disney could have made. I had no interest in Epic Mickey until now. This game looks amazing. It would be awesome if they also released this on the home consoles. I'm so excited.

 

[TreIII]

Scrooge McDuck!

This. The only that's wrong with that picture? NO POGO CANE. :lol

 

[vagabondarts]

Saw the screen. Day one for great justice

Spoiler

will probably skip the console version(s) this time around and get the superior handheld version

Hope it sells like crazy along with mario 6 and leads to the inevitable 3DS ducktales revival.

 

[fernoca]

Wonder how they approached development of this.
The obvious was a scaled down port of the Wii version with touch controls.

Yet, not only a 2D game is made akin to the Genesis game, but they get a good developer to do it too.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK ALL THOSE SCREENS!
We only need confirmation of remixes from the original songs in those movies and we are set.

The backgrounds are AMAZING
The one that looks more like concept art (and its probably only concept art) doesnt go too far from some of the screens like the hook one.

 

[mugurumakensei]

Yea saw the other screens. Um, this will definitely be a purchase.

 

[shira]

This. The only that's wrong with that picture? NO POGO CANE. :lol

If I see a 2D Scrooge he automatically has a pogo cane.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

i need them to add a remix of the castle of illusion boss music

 

[stalker]

So I never played the Illusion games but I played the SNES Capcom games. The enemies in the screenshots look like something from Magical Quest. Do those enemies appear in the Illusion games also or are the designers picking ideas here and there?

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Im the only one who thinks that the music of castle of illusion is pretty forgetable? At least the megadrive one (never heard the master systme one). Because of the hype I just heard all the soundtrack today in youtube and it was not as good as I remember it.

The blobs with helmets that appear in the screens dont look like anything from the castle of illusion game.
The most repeated enemy from that game was the mushrooms. Then there were toy soldiers in the its a small world look a like stage, the spiders in the leafs part, the planes, and the fucking bats in the mines (worst enemy in the game)...

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

its got some catchy themes the boss music and stage cleared music has stayed with me and will randomly pop into my head at times

 

[Shiggie]

Scrooge Mc.Duck gave me a hard-on... wow.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

its got some catchy themes the boss music and stage cleared music has stayed with me and will randomly pop into my head at times

Hearing it today the castle was the best one, but it was not something to write home about. I think the loop for the boss theme is too short for its own good, and thats even worse because its used for all the bosses (and you are going to be killed repeated times by that godamn punching clown)

 

[stalker]

......
The blobs with helmets that appear in the screens dont look like anything from the castle of illusion game.

Yes, those helmet creatures. I am quite sure they were in Magical Quest. Or something very similar at least.

 

[liger05]

Amazing screens

 

[The Hermit]

saw the scans!

 

[Platy]

IT IS ..... BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!

edit : I think we should ask the mods to open an exception to these scans ... because THEY ARE GODLIKE and it is a SIN not to share this to THE WORLD !!!
IT CAN BRING WORLD PEACE !!!!

Epic Mickey: The GOOD Edition

I can see it now. Epic Mickey 2 |OT| The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.
I'll leave it to everyone's tastes as to decide which is which.
