Steve! Mac princesses could use your help
This morning on Yahoo! Finance I noticed a press release for a multi-platform video game – Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey -- due out this fall. Knowing my daughter would be interested, I scanned the list of systems on which the game will run. I’m seeing PlayStation 2, Wii and Windows PC. As usual, there is no mention of a Mac version.
The game sounds promising, too. From the press release:
In Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey for Wii, PlayStation 2 system and PC, girls play as their own customized heroine, taking part in a fantastic adventure and helping the Disney Princesses restore order in their kingdoms. Girls exercise their creativity by choosing their character's name as well as customizing her look - selecting hair color, skin tone, dresses and more. As they meet and interact with their favorite Disney Princesses, girls discover that each Disney Princess has a unique story and magical world. These stories inspire players as they ascertain the attributes of being a true princess -- courage, friendship, trust and discovery. The game's two-player mode allows girls and their moms or friends to work together to fix the princess worlds.True, Mac gamers should be accustomed to being ignored. But after last week’s WWDC keynote, during which Steve Jobs trotted out two top gaming company heads to announce a slew of titles moving to the Mac platform, I’m a little disappointed. After all, Jobs sits on Disney’s board of directors and is its largest single shareholder. If he can convince EA Games and iD Software to include the Mac on its list of supported platforms, surely he can twist a few arms at Disney Interactive Studios.
What about it, Steve? My daughter is counting on you.

My daughter too is counting on you, Steve. It's downright nuts that Disney would produce anything NON-mac compatible that's computer related. Can't you just send an email or something?
