Well then, you're not "passsionate" enough. &P

But seriously, Nintendo fans should have no bearing at all on what Nintendo decides to do with the Zelda franchise. We can judge them, we can not buy their games, but they don't really owe Zelda fans anything. It just happens that they make great Zelda games, and it just happens that we buy them. The relationship should go no further than that.

You're just afriad to go ALL THE WAY with nintendo. admit it

PH's numbers are encouraging.

I think Nintendo should make Zelda Wii a massive event and make it truly special, with our without Wii controls.

They should take a cue from Mario Galaxy. Even if the game had somewhat minimal use of the Wiimote it sparkled thanks to how smoothly it played, the captivating galaxies, the great ORCHESTRATED music and wild graphics.

A Zelda game for the Wii along with the high quality productions of Galaxy would be out of this world...

Game Informer gave Okami a 9.25 and 8.5 why do you think Okami got different scores than NP?I don't subscribe to GI so I don't know the specifics. Will try to find the review.

I'm getting pretty tired of the orchestra vs high quality midi stuff.. I don't want to be the one to start the debate but did you really have to make it all in bold like that? I will say this, i do agree with you that it is appropriate for zelda but for Mario Galaxy it didnt really feel right. That is all

It felt right. Thread over.

Get this "Zelda" garbage out of my Okami thread...

Didn't we have to extract this debate once before?

Stevey, insert Girl Wolf Link, pronto.

Ign gave this game a 9. Some gripes about the game was that the nunchuk dodging didn't work to well so you will have to be more Offence minded. And some Framerate drops and some loading annoyances.

Well to be fair the framerate and the loading (I believe) were in the PS2 version as well. Still sounds like Ready at Dawn did a great job with the game.

I'm glad to have a game to keep me busy while I wait the painful extra week for Mario Kart...

Same here although I will get Mario Kart at the end of the month.

With the 1up, Nintendo Power and Bash-tastic NWR impressions, my prediction of the game being crapped upon is slowly coming true.

Its the late port curse, sadly. RE 4 survived it thankfully as it was a magnificent port, but I doubt Okami will avoid it.

You don't know until you play it.

Not saying the game sucks, just saying that reviewers will likely trash it because of a couple of issues, something common with reviews of ports of old games.

Ok, Tomorrow is the release of the game. Who is getting it?

Whenever it makes it here to the boonies of West Virginia (where I'm at school)...Which hopefully won't be any later than Thursday, but who knows? =(

I'm all in for the game, more so then any other 3rd party title. Can't wait to finally play it.

I've barely started Twilight Princess and I don't want to buy another similar game when I have that, so I'll be waiting until later on to buy this. I'd love to be able to buy it now to help the sales totals on what sounds like an excellent, core gamer focused third-party Wii game, but I don't buy games just to have them sit there unplayed (at least intentionally, I've had Front Mission on the DS for months and haven't touched it) and I already spent all my NCAA Bracket winnings so I don't have the money for it even if I wanted to.

ReverendNoahWhateley · « **Reply #171 on:** April 15, 2008, 03:54:19 AM »

If it's half as polished as Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, I'll pick it up for sure. Best $30.00 I ever spent on a video game I'd already beaten twice on a last-generation system.

Capcom and Deviant Art are running a contest to promote the release of the game.
Here is the link. http://Http://news.deviantart/article/46598/?offset=0

Glad to see Capcom doing something to advertise the game. I really hope it does well, Ready at Dawn and Okami both deserve it.

Totally grabbing this today if I can find it.
