Port

A great game is a great game no matter what platform it comes from.

Zelda Twilight Princess is a port yet it's a great game.

How about both. I never had the chance to play on the PS2 version and many here didn't have the chance as well.

Sequel, the Wii gets bashed too much for having so many ports.

Port. Okami was an awesome concept with gorgeous graphics that ended up being way too easy with short dungeons and a little helper who didn't give you a chance to think, simply told you what to do. Hopefully they can redeem what should have been a great game.

Makes incredible sense.

Instead of a port on the Wii people could buy a PS2 and Okami for it also.

Good thing Okami is down to 29.99

I mean heck the whole thing would only cost people 160 dollars (US)

Many people didn't get to play it on the PS2. It's an awesome game, so why not pick it up? I don't mind ports when they are ports of good games like RE4 and Okami.

I don't mind that it's a port since I never played the original. But I wouldn't mind a sequel to it as well.

I rather have a sequel because I bought this and beat it already. I probably wont buy the wii version unless they add new stuff (not the wii controls) and the give it a 29.99 price like they did with RE4.

Oh and when I say sequel I mean in terms of Sotc and Ico, so maybe a prequel to the game I dont see how a sequel would work. But they should do a prequel/sequel like how Ico and Shadow of the colossus were.

He's saying that if Zelda was built from the ground up for the Wii, it would be better, and I agree 100%.

considering both versions came out nearly at the same time, no. IF TP came out for the wii a year later, i sure as hell wouldn't buy it again when it would be the same thing.

Okami's a what, a 2 year old game? what sense is there playing an old game with waggle control

bingo

what makes you think that's gonna change when it's ported to wii? Considering how third parties are selling on it, this won't change much.

Okami desereved to sell a LOT more than it did. So this is a good second chance for it.

I want a port, and I want it to sell well enough to justify a wii exclusive sequal.

Exactly Okami, Zack and Wiki and No More Heroes are all destined to flop. I mean sure a couple more people will play it but it wont be mainstream. Anyway if they add something new to the story which they wont, I would buy it but 40 dollars turns me off.

Game Software (in units sold) 1) Call of Duty 4: Modern Combat (360, Activision) - 1.47 million 2) Super Mario Galaxy (Wii, Nintendo) - 1.40 million 3) Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (PS2, Activision) - 1.25 million 4) Wii Play with Wii Remote (Wii, Nintendo) - 1.08 million 5) Assassin's Creed (360, Ubisoft) - 893,700 6) Halo 3 (360, Microsoft) - 742,700 7) Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day (DS, Nintendo) - 659,500 8) Madden NFL 08 (PS2, Electronic Arts) - 655,200 9) Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (360, Activision) - 624,600 10) Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii, Sega) - 613,000

this is december's 2007 software sales.

other than mario and sonic at the olympics (a mini game collection no doubt), i don't see any other third party wii title there.

okami was a sales flop on the ps2 despite it being an AAA game. What woud the wii do to make it sell all of a sudden?

like i said, if it had a tough time selling on ps2, it's gonna be harder for it on wii

I totally agree with you. I want a good PS2 port and a full-fledged sequel to go along with it.

Maybe I have absolutely no idea what I am talking about, but could it be because it came out in 2006 on the God system that is known as the PS2? Really, people had way more choices during that time, especially since it was on the PS2. Wii doesn't have as big as a selection, so I think it might do better this time around. The cel shaded graphics are going to turn a lot of people off, though.

And sequel, definitely. I never played the original one, but I would rather buy it for the PS2, and then buy the sequel for the Wii. It's a win-win situation for me. I get to play two superb games.

AND I'd rather have a $29.99 version, so I actually buy it this time. It looks great.

I loved the PS2 one, and I would love to see something new coming from the "Okami" world.

Clover Studios was disbanded after creating the masterpiece in question. No true sequal can ever be created now, and I'm not sure if any publisher would want to take on the financial investment. Okami's sales weren't terrible but it was a very expensive game to make. I'm just happy the original is getting ported to the Wii. Okami might have made waves had it been created just for the Wii (as the controls seem custom built for the Wiimote) but hopefully this port will generate some buzz and extra sales. I'm also hoping the dev team can get rid of some of the slowdown from the PS2 version.
