Talking How Does Pal Mickey Update?

Today I bought (even though i know WDW off by heart) Pal Mickey and he is so COOOOOOOOOL!! But I was just wandering if he can update himself to accomodate the new rides? If so, how? Thanks!

Pal Mickey is basically a stuffed animal that is your own "personal tour guide" while you're in Walt Disney World...

He works while you're in the park... Telling you what attractions there are, what attractions are open, when parades/fire works are, and much, much more!

He is also said to work when you arrive home from your vacation...

I have only seen this in the gift shops in Walt Disney World... the 50$+ price tag has turned me off from buying it for my family...

When you walk into the park, have Mickey's nose (where the sensor is) facing forward and tilted up a little. Make sure it's not blocked. That's how it updates itself. I hope you enjoy it. Have fun in the parks and don't forget to complete the quests. If you plan to buy anything such as a hat or candy ASK for the cards. As long as you are shopping on main street, you should get the Gold ears or a penny press with the purchase. Have fun.

Sorry, but I don't think Pal Mickey can be updated. I got mine a few years ago when it first came out, so when I walk through the parks, he still talks about old attractions like Alien Encounter and stuff. When we went this year, we tried to see if he could be updated. Though we pretty much got a different answer out of everyone we asked (one guy said it couldn't be done, another said it could, and another CM said it would do id automatically) the answer we recieved most was no.

P.S. The guy who said it would update automatically was wrong.

I know that it should update itself as long as the sensor is working. That is why it doesn't tell you about the attractions at home. If your Pal Mickey is not working correctly, please bring it to the store which currently houses VMK Central (the main store in Magic Kingdom for the Pal Mickey). Since guest satisfaction is a major part of what keeps the Disney magic strong, I am sure they will be able to assist you with your Pal Mickey.

I have a Pal mickey 1.0.... it is updated every time it passes through the park gates... It talks about Mount Never Rest.. lol (which mountain in Asia never sleeps? Mount Never Rest..) and talks about Stitch's not so great escape...

Maybe yours is malfunctioning.. next time your at WDW and it does that take it to guest services and ask about it.. you might get lucky and get a Pal mickey 1.5.... (2.0 coming next year i hear..)
