    Okami for Wii!

    http://wii.ign.com/objects/884/884970.html


    One of the best rated PS2 games is being ported to the Wii. I loved this game back on Ps2, and plan on picking this up when I get the chance.

    I got about 1/4 through the PS2 version and then stopped I am going to have to replay it someday when I get the chance. The game didn't do too well in sales though did it? Ashame, hopefully the Wii will boost it, seemed like a really good game

    It was being hailed by anyone who rated it and actually played through it. It was a great game, but sales weren't great. Clover studio's the company that produced it went bankrupt a while back as a result. Its a shame, given a chance this game could have been a new zelda.

    This game was pretty fun, got distracted and started other stuff. The talking in the game is so annoying though, its just garbally guck and gets annoying in like 2.2 seconds.

    So? Makes localization easier/cheaper if they don't have to get new voice actors.

    Not to mention Zelda games do the same exact thing. It's not a bad strategy, really.

    I'd rather hear nothing than hear that random noise, it just gets annoying after a while.

    Zelda can get annoying too (hi2u OoT and LISTENNNNNNNNNNN.)

    Re: Okami for Wii!

    If you have a Wii and don't have this game yet stop what you are doing and go buy it, NOW!!!! If you have a PS2 and don't have a Wii then try your damnest to find a copy of this game. It is an amazing game that makes Zelda: Twilight Princess seem shallow and with out storyline. My greatest hope is that people buy enough copies of this game to warrant them doing the sequel like they were planning.

    Clover deserved awards and recognition for Okami, and God Hand instead they got sacked. Capcom needs to pull there head outta their asses and beg Seeds to do an Okami sequel.

    Clover studio's was dissolved. I doubt there will be a sequel. This game was underrated and underappreciated. Those that played it, loved it. Those that didn't over looked it. Its a shame.

    Ya they're an independent group called Seeds but I think if Capcom offered them the chance to make a sequel they would. As unlikely as it is I have to hope that game is easily in my all time top 10 maybe even in the top 5.

    online release date = released from vendor, isnt in stores till the following day, or evening if they get night shipments.

    most games come out in wednesdays these days, so it arrives the 16th.

    Yea I saw that... also heard it was a shitty port and freezes or something? I don't have a Wii but if this is a good port just more of a reason for me to buy one since I missed the ps2 version =/

    Re: Okami for Wii!

    I just picked up the game yesterday, played about 2 hours and it's pretty fun. The graphics are not terrible for a ps2 port and I haven't had any framerate or freezing issues as of yet. I love the zelda-style gameplay and the characters have pretty good personalities. So far I'd say this is certainly a good buy, its the most time I've put into my Wii in a long time (outside of smash matches with friends)
