Nintendo Epic Mickey Wii :
A heroic tale of redemption and discovery, Epic Mickey is an action-platforming game featuring the iconic Mickey Mouse in a fantastical adventure inspired by the cartoons of the 1930s and 1940s. Pulled into a warped Disney universe called the Cartoon Wasteland by an evil villain, Mickey finds himself in a world inhabited by the retired and forgotten cartoon characters and attractions from Disney's past. Mickey must use the very elements of himself and the world, paint and paint thinner, to explore the Cartoon Wasteland, find the source of evil that is destroying the land, and redeem his fellow cartoon characters including Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Walt Disney's first cartoon star and Mickey's resentful half-brother. With visionary game designer Warren Spector behind the title, players choose their own path to defeat supreme evil, face the consequences of those decisions and ultimately free the Cartoon Wasteland.

- Play as a retro inspired Mickey Mouse, who adapts to the player's gaming style as a Hero or a Scrapper.
- Explore the warped Disney Cartoon Wasteland and along the way change the world using magic paint and paint thinner.
- Paint, thin, platform and explore. The Cartoon Wasteland has many twists, turns, puzzles and platforms. Choose the best way to accomplish missions.
- Encounter forgotten cartoon friends - and enemies. Some of Mickey's old forgotten friends live in the Cartoon Wasteland. Get to know them, and choose to help them or leave them to live in the Cartoon Wasteland.

Looks awesome, has a neat paint and thinner mechanic, your actions affect the world and people in the Wasteland, great soundtrack, animated story segments have a unique feel, story is well written, there are secret areas hidden, auto-saves, can unlock extra features and art, quite a few sidequests are available, items carry over in subsequent playthroughs and there are lots of character cameos. M...
In-game camera is a fearsome foe and side-scrolling levels feel pretty pointless. Sometime paint/thinner doesn’t go where you want it to. Quests can expire if you leave an area where they were in. You can’t chose when to save. Only one “main” ending, regardless of your actions with paint or thinner.
