===Video games=== In 1995, Oswald briefly appeared in ''[[Férias Frustradas do Pica-Pau]]'', a Woody Woodpecker video game released for the [[Master System]] and the [[Mega Drive]] in Brazil only.<ref>{{cite news |title=Disney Epic Mickey Primer |work=PCWorld |date=December 1, 2010 |language=en |url=https://www.pcworld.com/article/212109/Disney_Epic_Mickey_Primer.html |access-date=October 30, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200815015851/https://www.pcworld.com/article/212109/Disney_Epic_Mickey_Primer.html |archive-date=August 15, 2020}}</ref> In 2006, Oswald made a cameo in the Intro of a Panchiko Machine game called ''[[Woody Woodpecker CR 2]]''. Oswald is one of the main characters in the 2010 video game ''Epic Mickey'' and its 2024 remake, ''Epic Mickey: Rebrushed''. The world of ''Epic Mickey'' takes place in "Wasteland", a setting that mirrors elements of [[Disneyland]] but as a home for "forgotten" Disney characters, including Oswald,<ref name="Go">{{cite news |title=Game Informer reveals the first information on Epic Mickey |work=GoNintendo |date=May 30, 2011 |url=https://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=100611 |access-date=2011-05-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711110926/http://www.gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=100611 |archive-date=July 11, 2011}}</ref> who rules over the environment.<ref name="Informer">{{cite web |last=Miller |first=Matt |website=Gameinformer |title=Epic Mickey keeps looking better |date=2010 |url=https://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/06/18/epic-mickey-keeps-looking-better-and-better.asx |access-date=May 30, 2011}}{{dead link|date=April 2025|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> Oswald fashioned Wasteland after Disneyland, although it is darker and distorted.
