This wasn't swinging, this was IR pointy at a level beneath Red Steel.

It's like pool in Wii Play.

So basically Killer7 level in regards to control competency? That is way too much of a low blow, you should take that back.

Hopefully Capcom will have released their control mistakes with the Wii port of Okami and will address them in this sequel.  The Celestial Brush shape recognition needs to be significantly tightened and for the love of all that is holy map attack to a button instead of shaking the remote!  Just about any button will do over having to use waggle!

I didn't have much of an issue with the waggle. The controls were not broken, they were just finicky. You have to work with them a bit, though I'd say there is plenty of room for improvement. Trying to get proper brush strokes in certain directions was tricky sometimes.

What is this Zelda game you hold in such high regard?

Is this a serious question?

The Celestial Brush worked fine.

However, I do agree with you that there needs to be less waggle.  Combat needs to be seriously improved in the sequel.  I used the Rosary Beads almost exclusively but fighting enemies with high HP meant I'd sometimes sit there shaking my remote for a solid 3 minutes per battle.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Okami's great and I welcome a sequel.

Agreed, it's my favourite game that I've played this gen.

Dunno, I was always using swords as my primary with beads as secondary before I got the ability to get extra power from dual swords.

Well it was just a port from the PS2 so yeah, the controls are a bit funky since it seemed like a rush port anyhow.

But if they make a sequel for the WII then they'll be able to fully embrace the controls and do a much better job.

I loved the odd-ball humor in the game most--Zelda WW had a few funny moments but that's about it and TP didn't even have that.

That carousel cannon thing was the weirdest, creepiest and one of the funniest things I've seen in quite awhile. TP had plenty of weird humor.

Scans were released of Okamiden and it is a 3D DS game. They managed to recreate the cell shaded style of Okami on Wii/PS2.

If you want to take a peek at how it looks.

Damn the handheld dominance in Japan, with all these long-anticipated console sequels going to handhelds.  First Valkyria Chronicles 2 and now this...

(yes, I didn't think much of the first game, but I too was looking forward to a retooled sequel.)

I like big handheld games.  Devs have to work harder to make their game stand out, and don't use visuals as a crutch as often.

AWESOME. This better come to America.

The brush mechanics are sure to work flawlessly with stylus input. SO EXCITED.

I'm sad. I play my Wii much more than my DS. I want a Wii game too.

Color me happy still.  DS is a wonderful thing, playing on the road, in the bed, even sneaking some time at work or in class when possible...  ;D

Damn, 3D games on the DS look like POO though--I wonder if it's not just going make the jump to DSi?


Still just happy it's getting a sequel and maybe this will spark more gamers into these gem.

That's an interesting thought. Maybe it will be a DSi exclusive game. That would sure make me buy a DSi. I agree that 3d games on DS look really bad, but at least the cel-shaded ones look alright. It's one of the big turn-offs I get from the FF remakes.
