Disney's Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse

Oh dear, I do believe I have the vapors. This page contains content that is not safe for work or other locations with the potential for personal embarrassment. Such as: A robot shooting projectiles out of its questionably-placed crotch-launcher.

To do: Regional Differences. Add native uploads of unused videos (if possible). Document the Gekkan Nintendo demo of the game. Find more unused content. Find what the binary files (models) can be opened with or what they were compressed with.

Disney's Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse is a point-and-click adventure game starring everyone's favorite mouse. It was originally announced at Nintendo SpaceWorld 2001 as a platformer before it ultimately became a point-and-click adventure.

One night, a mischievous ghost traps Mickey's spirit in a trippy mansion/castle, complete with magic portals and a dungeon! Only by gathering mirror shards will Mickey be able to return to the Twilight Realm of his world.

Download zzz.fst File: Disney_Magical_Mirror_Starring_MickeyMouse_Zzz_fst.RAR (Compressed: 12,9k Uncompressed: 37,9k) (info)

Also located in the system folder, this file contains a lot of sourcecode/function related text.

Unused Graphics#

Font#

To do: Are there any leftover debugging features that might use this font?

A font that may have been used for debugging, as it isn't used anywhere in the game. It is stored in the system folder.

Cursor#

A cursor. It is completely different from the final version.

title.tpl#

An early version of the title screen, found in the system folder, possibly from a point in development before the game's title was finalized. The graphics are very different from the final version.

Unused Videos#

This page or section needs more videos. There's a whole lotta words or pictures here, but not enough videos. Please fix this.

Several unused video files appear under the "movie" directory in .h4m format; these files possibly lack sound data.

• "mic_mov1" is a short compilation of gameplay demos.
• "pik" is a small fragment of gameplay from Pikmin.
• "sample1" is a 3D-animated demo of a girl punching and kicking away obstacles. Variants of this video (of unclear source) are known to exist with audio.¹
• "sen_hi" is easily the most questionable inclusion. It is a conversion of a 3D-animated parody video depicting the Chinese robot Xianxingzhe (先行者) - a then-recent meme at the time of the game's development - shooting lasers out of its protruding "crotch cannon".²

E3 Leftovers#

A few leftovers from the E3 demo remain in the final version's files, inside the /Mickey/e3 folder.

thanks.tpl#

This would show up when the player had reached the play time limit.

e3_title.tpl#

E3	Final

The title graphic used at E3. Differences from the final version:

• Mickey is in a different pose.
• Mickey is inside the mirror instead of standing in front of it.
• The toy train seen in the final version's background is missing.

Also, the background for E3 is different. The plane and rainbows seen in the E3 title were removed and replaced with a night sky in the final version. The plane also has an unused 3 frame animation.

Unused Textures#

Candy Hiphop Minigame#

な ゆ
ま た

One of the texture sheets has an unused texture with Japanese text on it. The text doesn't appear to mean anything.

Library Room#

This sheet, like the Candy Hiphop one, has an unused texture with writing on it. The text doesn't appear to mean anything.
===Small Guitar Model===

This one, compared to the normal sized one used in the minigame, has writing on it. The text says miniature.
