Capcom's beloved cult classic action game, Okami will be on the Switch, as revealed in the Direct. It'll launch later this summer. There will be touchscreen controls in tablet mode, or Joy-con motion controls with TV mode for the paintbrush.

Woah woah, i do poke fun of switch and its stuff from time to time, but that was a bit, harsh... let people buy and play what they want, at least, okami is pretty cheap on the other platforms, if the $19.99 price tag applies to the switch version then i see nothing wrong with people wanting it.

Interesting point you've made. I REALLY want to see how much Capcom priced this game compared to the other platforms they gave.

I never played okami, and since this looks like an e-shop only title I won't be able to grab it so easily

why not? wouldnt it be easier on eshop than looking for a physical copy? am sure it's also cheaper.

I don't have any easy way to purchase things online
I believe I have a friend who has the DS port, maybe I will ask her if I can have the game for a while to try it

Hope this is better than the ps3 port. Great in terms of both action and puzzles.
Also slightly offended a pagan religion is called cult, but I am not Japanese.

i believe the DS port was a completely different game? i could be wrong since i haven't played any from the series before.

It is.
PC, PS3, PS2, Wii, Xbone and PS4 are the same game tho.

eShop ? I will pass. I prefer to have a physical copy instead. No digital for me, man.

Yeah, all the people that will get triggered here are just a bunch of mindless sheep that lazy corperations can have their way with. Amazing how nothing new, with a little marketing will compel people to throw their money at nothing new. Oh well... They say a fool parts with his money every second of every day...

Valid point, however, there are a whole generation of people who haven’t owned any game systems prior to Switch...kids born in 2008 would experience every single Switch game as “new”.

I like to think of the ports as bonus while they work on the blockbuster new games coming.

I'm going to cry if it will be priced at 60 dollars.
It should be below that amount.

considering there is no phisical release i bet it will not be switch taxed since that is for the prices of cartriges, and nintendo forces the phisical price to be the same as digital, thats why devs do the switch tax or add stuff to the phisical release like soundtracks and such.

the ds one is a sequel to this ones, the okami was released on ps2 originaly, remastered for wii,xbox360,ps3 latter and now remastered again for ps4,xb1 and switch. the ds release is a sequel to the original okami not the same game,

Sheep.. Hm... Originality is dead. So, I have to wonder what imaginary world you're living in.

Originality is dead precisely because of the sheep that keep buying the same old rehashed stuff, over, and over. What incentive is there to innovate, and make anything original when you can get all the sheep to make you wealthy by buying the same thing again and again. Much easier for a company to put money into marketing the same old as being new, than to put that money into actually making something new and original. Too much risk with investing into new and original when you know the sheep will keep filling your coffers by purchasing the same old.

They're gonna have to go pretty low on price to want to pick this up again.
