This is a game that I've wanted to replay, because it has a ton of charm and some great ideas. But man the controls are rough. If this can fix those, I'd love to replay it, for the right price. Maybe it will even lead to Epic Mickey 3, although that's doubtful.

I’ve been curious to try it but the stories of the awkward controls always put me off. Also hoping it’s addressed in the remaster.

If you're a big Disney fan , I think it's worth putting up with the controls. Otherwise, there are just better games, even within the somewhat small genre of 3D platformers. I'd wait to see if the remaster fixes the issues, and if not, I'd just skip it entirely.

I gave up on this game after a few hours on Wii shortly after it launched. Improve the controls and fix the camera and I'll probably buy it.
