It is. Epic Mickey 2, last year's sequel to the Warren Spector headed Epic Mickey, is coming to Sony's latest handheld.
This comes as a bit of a surprise, as the game performed poorly. For reference, the first Epic Mickey (for the Wii exclusively) sold 1.3 million copies, a decent amount to say the least. This game sold half that across 4 different platforms (Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii, and Wii U). The game also garnered a Metascore of 56-64 (depending on platform).
Well, regardless, the game will be hitting Sony's struggling (but recently more upbeat) Vita later this year. Hurray?

Personally I enjoyed the first game quite a bit, nice universe, nice mechanics, and it did feel like a sorta-late 90's platformer. I wouldn't mind trying the sequel but it definitely didn't look as good as the first.
