As much as I loved this game on Wii, i'm not paying more than it originally cost for a remake.

That may be the case if you are just watching animations and visiting Disneyland.

What you really should do is to read the classic Mickey Mouse comics. Mickey is a very witty crime solver in many of those.

I would recommend reading Floyd Gottfredson's stories.
"Editor-in-Grief" is one of the best comic stories I have ever read. It has some ridiculously funny situations, it has some politically incorrect stuff like violence and Mickey drugging the antagonist to gain information, but it also has some very serious topics like corruption and the power of media as important elements of the story.

Paul Murry is worth checking out too.
He was the one who invented Goofy's... eh... goofy style of holding his hand in front of his mouth. In his stories Mickey is usually wearing a shirt and long pants, so Mickey is not... eh... goofy... if that makes sense.

Romano Scarpa's work is a good choice as well, although Italian Disney comics have a completely different feeling, not necessarily better or worse, but different.
