Vignocchi: Darkwing Duck Lost to Olaf In Disney Infinity 3.0 Lineup Due To Fan Polls

Disney Infinity asks for information from its fan base many times throughout the last year’s development cycle. You may remember many times Disney requesting for your character feedback on their facebook or twitter profiles, well they had another direct effect on the game.

Olaf beat out Darking Duck.

You may remember, John Vignocchi has stated that Mulan is in Disney Infinity 3.0 because of the fans. She was near the top in fan requests.

Well John Vignocchi said in a recent interview with Polygon that also thanks to the fan polls, another Disney Infinity character made it in… in front of a character that he’s pushed hard to make it in.

“We’re listening to the fans,” he said. “We do the Facebook fan stuff all the time. We do these informal polls, and they wind up in the senior executive meetings with guys throwing stuff around and yelling at each other. ‘OK, this is what the fan poll said we should be doing, these characters.’ That’s how I lost Darkwing Duck to Olaf this year.

If you’ve listened me rant on the Toys For Games ‘Cast each week, you know I’ve wanted two characters from the get go: Mulan, and Darkwing Duck.

So while I’m bummed Darkwing Duck didn’t make it in 3.0, this only bolsters his chance for 4.0 and beyond.

Also, let it be know, I’m not upset that Olaf is in Disney Infinity 3.0. He needs to be in the game after his exclusion in Disney Infinity 1.0.

Plus, he’s going to sell a lot of figures, and that’s good for business.
