Disney is making a big, awesome change to its $1 billion 'Disney Infinity' video game business
The way "Disney Infinity" works, across video game consoles, smartphones, PCs, and even the Apple TV, is both simple and amazing.
Buy an actual plastic action figure, at an MSRP of $14 a pop, and place it on the USB-connected "Infinity Base" that comes with the game's starter sets, and use that character in the game. Place Darth Vader on the base, and Darth Vader appears in the game.
