Digital Trends – Disney Interactive Studios has launched Disney Epic Mickey exclusively for the Nintendo Wii, a new video game that casts the iconic Mickey Mouse as an action hero. In the game, Mickey is set loose in in a Wasteland (which he inadvertently created, in a nod to Fantasia) with only paint and paint thinner to try to save the world and its cartoon characters.
