Uh-oh, the rumour is back with avengence!

For those who can't read French, it' basically two French sources claiming the game is in development. Sounds like a leak of something to me, the fact two sources have it seems pretty legit (unless one copied the other) :P.

 

With all this Capcom gamer day and big announcements lately, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd told the press and put an embargo on it.

 

*Hopes*

You know the drill, as long as Okami was launched, rumours were all around the web saying that there might be a port coming for Wii. Now it seems very likely that this is true.

 

Today, Capcom held a special event and the portuguese magazine MaxiConsolas, responsible for the worldwide revealing of Nights for Wii is reporting that an Okami remake for Wii was announced at the show. The magazine is very credible, but we await further confirmation.

Now that the Wii is the success it is, I feel we shouldn't be begging for old, Playstation remakes...Why do we do that though? Why want PS2 Okami? Why not ask for it's sequel? No reason it can't happen now.
Because Capcom's team who did it is gone and it was too hard to get a port (if this gets confirmed) let alone the resources for a sequel; since the first flopped... and ultimately because a port will act as a test for the Nintendo userbase.

 

That and the fact that the game is beutiful regardless of graphical power, even for PS2, meaning it won't look "aging" on the Wii (despite it's roots)

 

All in all... it's a port, but it's one of the best we could get.

I think it deserves a port just because it was a beautiful, original game, that because of this deserved to sell well but didn't. I think this will give it another chance to sell, and with the Wii's hardcore fanbase I think it should. Well I hope it does at leat.

I hear what you're saying, but Okami is a very different thing altogether. Nobody bought it on PS2 for one thing, and the nature of the game (and the gameplay) is perfect for the Wii setup. There's really nothing like it on any of the other consoles (PS3/360) adding further to the Wii's already wonderfully eclectic line-up. I'd like to see the original, and a sequel for the Wii. Yes please!

Yeah, if Okami Wii could ever somehow give the potential for a sequel, I'd like to see it.

 

Once I heard about the game on Ps2, I specifically chose not to buy it in the hope of a Wii version. The visuals are incredible, and gameplay mechanics are ingenious, now I've just got to hope this game won't interfere with Smash Bros Brawl :/.
