Game Informercaused a bit of a stir recently when it removed the “Wii exclusive” label from itsEpic Mickeyteaser, leadingmany of us to wonderif there were plans for cross-platform releases.GIhasnow confirmedthat the game will be made for the Wii, andonlythe Wii. If you thought that the gorgeous concept art for Warren Spector’sEpic Mickeywould be realized in HD graphics on a PS3 or Xbox 360, then tough luck.
What happened was thatGame Informerattempted to hide the Wii exclusivity news so that it could save the big reveal for the next magazine issue. Unfortunately, this is the Internet, which meant everybody saw it beforeandafter it was taken down. As is often the case, things snowballed and nowGame Informerhas been forced to spoil its big reveal (that we had all guessed in the first place) and confirm the Disney title’s platform exclusivity.
That’s a shame, since I felt that with Sony’s Wiimote coming out, a PS3 release would have definitely been possible. Perhaps it could still happen one day, but for now you’re going to have to make do withEpic Mickeyin SD.
