There, his “nemesis” of sorts is Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, an actual forgotten Disney character. In the game, he represents envy of Mickey and Mickey’s success, and he has created his own kingdom in this dystopian, pseudo-post-apocalyptic world. He attempts to recreate familiars like Donald and Goofy (in the form of creepy looking Mecha) and overall wants Mickey’s life. The character of Oswald was one of Walt’s first creations, prior to Mickey, but when he was fired from his initial animation studio, the design was left behind, and he moved on to creating Mickey. It adds a kind of cool twist to the story as this simple cartoon character antagonist and his motivations are grounded in real history.

Mickey himself has access to a paintbrush and paint thinner to artistically sweep his way through stages. As you make decisions, Mickey’s appearance will slightly change along a spectrum between real-good-guy hero and somewhat-darker scrapper (check the gallery in the link — the golden gloved mouse is Hero Mickey, the white gloved version is Scrapper Mickey).

Depending on how this shapes up, it could be a solid title for the Wii next year.

SUPER Street Fighter IV — just the fact that a “super” version is coming out is nostalgic of the SNES days. Hopefully it’s not crappy like SFIII Second Impact was.
