Noooo not the DS! D:

I would rather a console sequel, with the original staff if possible (and we all know that it probably isn't). I don't want to buy a DS. :/

Also 1Up.com fails for saying that Ammy is male. XD

Unfortunately, as Clover (the original developers of Okami went belly up shortly after Okami's release, it's pretty much impossible, especially as I think as distributors, CAPCOM co-hold the copyright.

XD And yes, that is failure.

Actually, Clover didn't go belly up. It was disbanded as one of the Capcom teams, and quite a lot of its members still work with the company in its other teams.

Ah, right. I stand corrected. Now I fail. XD

In fact, now you mention it, a lot of the design staff (both visual and storywise) are now part of the Platinum label, aren't they?

Okay, have to admit that Chibiterasu is adorable, but that's not what will keep the game from failing.

But I shouldn't be so quick to judge. Maybe it'll be awesome.

It might be good but being on DS immediately kills my interest.

Do we know for certain that Chibi will be a girl? Just because Ammy is doesn't mean this new pup has to be.

Does everyone here hate the DS or something?

I personally welcome our new Nintendo overlords.

Well, I don't. Actually, the DS is the platform for my most favourite game of all time... The World Ends With You. But I've talked about that enough on these forums.

No idea if Chibiterasu is female or no. I don't even know if that info has been released.

No. They just prefer their favorite franchises on consoles that aren't portable weaksauce, especially when said franchises started on the PS2.

Yet, stuff on the PSP is fine... Mind you, given how often that needs recharging, you can't really call it portable, can you?

Anyway, it's hardly the first time this has happened: FFXII was on the PS2 exclusively (unlike Okami), while FFXII: Revenant Wings was on the DS.

Nope. Would have rather had Chains of Olympus and Dissidia on a home console. Even just the PS2.

No shit.

Hence:

Why does everyone insist on making these crap DS games :(.

Really though, it makes sense for Ookami when you consider the celestial brush. While it would be nice to get it on the PS3 or something, the idea of it on the PSP or something sounds unappealing and hard to use. (See the fail that was Me & My Katamari for how not to use the PSP correctly.)

Well Okami did fine on the PS2, but when they tried for the Wii, I've been told it hasn't faired so well... And my major dislike of the DS is that every company decides to make games for it, because it probably takes about a 12$ budget, and about a week to make the entire game, etc. Same thing with everyone using the UE3. They're all just being lazy, and I'd much rather see a full console game.

It sold well in America, but looked to do pretty badly in Japan on the PS2.

Also the Wii has sold about 10,000 more copies than the PS2 did, so :monster:

But how many Wii owners are doing more than just playing Wii fit? :monster:
I like to think some of them are playing Fatal Frame 4. ...(like I would...)

Ditto, same with Crisis Core. However, the only releases on the PS2 these days are multi-format tat, like film tie-ins and sports titles. Otherwise, developing for the PS2 isn't "commercially viable" - in other words, people being the sheep they are, are too busy distracted by the new shiny.

The Wii remake/port's failure can be linked (in my mind) to the fact that the original developers didn't work on it - it was allocated to another developer. Bad news - this same developer is working on Okamiden.

Still, let's reserve judgement until the game's been released, eh?
