Yeah well at least he hasn't earned himself the title of WarryS by insulting an entire collection of people.
I'd like to get a Wii eventually anyway so no big deal.

Maybe I'm blind, but where does it say exclusive?
There are a couple of responses indicate as such but those seem to be based on rumors (based on the concept artist that wasn't supposed to publicize his work but did so anyway and mentioned it as "Epic Mickey (Wii game)").
Exclusivity is of course a possibility, but are there any serious sources stating such?

(
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/first-epic-mickey-details-spilled) Story and gameplay details:
Quote:
This forgotten world is run by Oswald the Rabbit. He was Disney's first creation, made long before Mickey Mouse, and his jealousy of the newcomer has fermented for years. Now, finally, Oswald is ready for revenge.
He unleashes The Phantom Blot to wipe out Mickey and his cartoon world. The Blot pollutes the Disney universe with sticky black ink that makes colours run and fade (as seen on the Game Informer cover), so it's up to Mickey to restore peace and order. And this is where his tools come in.
Mickey has to draw and scribble his way through levels, mending broken bridges by applying the right colour paint or peering through walls after applying thinner. He can even clear rubble from his path by erasing parts of the world.
Our source told us Epic Mickey is a game about thinking and artwork - laterally considering your environment in order to overcome puzzles.

I was hoping against the odds.. :(
I do understand the gushing, I had a similar Disney infused childhood. Though I have to say I grew out of 'Mickey' quite soon, much more a fan of Carl Barks' Duckburg and its less-than-perfect characters.
So I won't be buying a Wii just yet. But if Epic Mickey ever comes to PC, I might be temped.

Well, good for Warren that he can work on his dream project, bad for me as I'll never play it. Not gonna buy a fucking Wii.

I'd like a Wii eventually, but PS3 takes priority.

As a consummate gamer, it behooves me to (eventually) have every modern gaming platform, as they all have good stuff on them. Worse comes to worse, I can pick them up cheap when they become old and discontinued (as I did with my $50 Dreamcast back in the day).
But, yeah, PS3 takes priority for me (already have a 360) - the Wii doesn't have that many appealing games to me, and two of the few (No More Heroes and Super Smash Bros. Brawl) I've already completed/played extensively.
But, hey, awesome news for Wii gamers - that console needs some third-party love really bad.
