dazzybee Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Oh, I thought there was an official confirmation. Great news though, one game I never got to play but really wanted to, and the fact that it sounds perfect for Wii! Hope they add a ton of content too! An ultimate edition!

Dante Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Capcom has finally confirmed persistent rumours that Okami is coming to Nintendo Wii, telling a London audience this week that the game will arrive on our screens in spring 2008. Celebrated on PS2 for its absorbing puzzle and action adventure mechanics, gripping narrative inspired by Japanese folklore and beautiful watercolour visuals, its rebirth on Wii has been much hyped. The game also lends itself rather well to the potential of Nintendo's Wiimote for control. Amaterasu's Celestial Brush - a paintbrush used in combat and for solving puzzles - is a perfect fit for the Wiimote, and so it proves, while combat will also include various "motion-controlled physical attacks". www.eurogamer.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Bah I went and bought the PS2 version earlier this year as well. I still haven't played it though Yeah same here. I could just sell my PS2 and buy it on Wii, cus it's the only reason I bought it. I'm not really into PS2, but I like the look of Okami. Might as well get it for a console I actually want to play.

Dante Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Ready for Dawn? After yesterday's leak gaping hole from the Capcom press event in London, it seemed like all the nifty surprises had been ruined. But wait, one more! As reported by Eurogamer, Capcom announced at their London media briefing that their critical darling Okami would be making its way onto Wii in Spring 2008. Also worth noting: Quartermann totally called it. For those uninitiated to the game, the former PlayStation 2-exclusive title was often compared to Zelda for its combination of action, platforming and puzzles, and saw the hero Amaterasu painting brush strokes on the screen for combat and puzzles. Seems like an obvious fit for Wii, doesn't it? There will also be motion-controlled attacks. We have a man on the floor of the London event, so as soon as the embargo lifts, you'll hear all the details from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCK Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Yes, yes, yes, fucking ACE!!! This should be so awesome my mind can't quite realise it. This game is second on my list, only to Mario Galaxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraser Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Awesome news! Not to say: "awesome Shi-!!!" Anyway, maybe this game will have now the true credit that deserves, but i'm still kind of sad.... it's a port. I'd prefer a sequel a lot more. Although... there's no more Clover Studios for Capcom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khilafah Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 not gonna bother if it is the same as PS2 version. I can get that for like £15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraser Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 It's the same, but will make use of motion controlles... not a think that will make the game better... only if it make a good use of it. Since is Capcom... maybe it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aalborg Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Hmmm I have it for the PS2 and it is brilliant.. Ill pick it up for the Wii also.. love the humor in it.. som old geezer is making a long long speech and when he is finished Okami is sleeping on the ground.. ha ha.. a little stab at "long winded speeches in games perhaps"? And the art in the game is simply amazing.. i think its the most beautifull game i ever played.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon_BlizZACK Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Okami is a great game...But two ports/remakes in two years by the same company...Is that a good thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Okami is a great game...But two ports/remakes in two years by the same company...Is that a good thing? well hopefully the logic is that it will fund new exciting projects...this starts to fall down and become a problem if they instead pump the money into other consoles projects...
