Details recently wrote about Disney’s experimentation with updating Mickey Mouse. What do you think? Should they change Mickey or leave him alone? (Details says keep him the same.)
its just a videogame trying to win back male consumers. same reason for Carsland at California Adventure, cars 2, toy story 3, and prince of persia. They have plenty of girl consumers with the princesses and costumes. They aren't "changing" Mickey Mouse anywhere else.
