In a recent interview Disney Interactive Studios executive VP and general manager Graham Hopper expressed his view that the reason behind Nintendo's games success is that it gives them the time and care they need to reach the "Nintendo level" of quality.

The Disney executive then explained that they aspire follow suit with their upcoming Wii exclusive, Epic Mickey.

"I think we've tried to learn from the things Nintendo does well," he said. "One of the things that Nintendo does on their own platforms is they give their projects the time and appropriate resources to be successful, and they iterate until they get there. And I think we're doing the same with Epic Mickey, giving it the time and resources to be successful."

"I'll tell you that I don't think all other third parties are approaching the Wii in the same way," hopper added. "If there's a third-party game that I think has potential to be as successful on the Wii to Nintendo levels, I'd like to think it's Disney Epic Mickey. We're following the same playbook."
