Topic: Capcom Offering Replacement Okami Box Art

[LuigiHann]

How did Capcom explain this in their press statement? Did they actually admit to it?

They did admit it, on the blog.

I can honestly say that my worst day at Capcom was this Monday. After releasing Okami for the Wii last week to some great reviews (Metacritic Average: 88), one of our Okami diehard fans discovered that the folks who work here at Capcom are, in fact, human and can make mistakes.

I’m speaking of the watermark that appeared on the cover of Okami. It’s sadly one of those things that’s hard to spot if you don’t know what your looking for, but the moment you see it, it becomes obvious and stares you in the face.

Still no real sign of why or how.

So this is how they spun it..

To better reflect the artistic nature of the game, we're proud to offer you new art for the outside of the box.

Fine with me, I love this idea.

They didn't really spin anything. Colin said they screwed up and people make mistakes like the watermark in the Okami box art.

The fact that Capcom reacted so quickly to the matter is a tad suspicious, though... =)
