Mickey Mouse is no rat. In Nintendo’s upcoming “Epic Mickey” Wii video game, the beloved Disney mouse will not morph into a snarling rat as originally planned when players make mischievous choices. Warren Spector, creative director of Disney Interactive Studios’ Junction Point, said Mickey will instead just take on a “smudgy” look if he’s naughty. “Epic Mickey” is set in a virtual world of Disney locales such as Adventureland and Skull Rock. Players face moral dilemmas about whether to help other characters. But after “Epic Mickey” appeared on the cover of Game Informer magazine last fall, several fans were outraged over Mickey’s makeover.
