Okami was one of the most cruelly overlooked awesome games on the last gen because of this reason.
You have to get it on Wi seriously, you have to.

Yes, it is. It has a very unique graphic style. I posted a link to a video of the gameplay on the PS2 earlier in the thread. You should check it out. I'm so excited about this game!!!

Is it a remake of the first one or a sequel? I always thought Okami looked awesome, though, I've never played it yet. Making the brush marks with a wiimote would be awesome =]

Okami news...

Information coming from Christian Svensson, Capcom’s Vice-President of Strategic Planning & Business

- media to be shown soon
- paintbrush with the wiimote takes about 10 minutes to get used
- precision of strokes isn’t super important, gameplay based around ease of use for quick strokes
- no TV commercials, no special edition, but there will be an “appropriately sized [marketing]push for the game.â€Â
- hitting Europe later than America, but not a significant delay
- Dialogue can be skipped
- no new content, but still 40-60 hours of content, and there will be incentive for owners of the PS2 version to check out Wii version
- “is even more beautiful than it was on the PS2.â€Â
- “all of you Wii fanatics better have Okami preordered by now because that’s the next test (and it’s waaay better with Wii controls, than it was on PS2… it’s very different, in a good way).â€Â

He also has a say about a sequel...

(regarding an Okami sequel) Technically, yes but I think that’s an outside chance. We have reasonable but modest expectations for the title. I’ll be very disappointed if we can’t hit those. If it happens to “destroy†said expectations, I’d definitely think hard about new content (though admittedly, that’s even quite difficult without Kimea’s and Inaba’s brilliant input on the project).

"The first, tiny, tiny screenshots of the actual Wii version! Unfortunately, this confirms that 16:9 mode = 4:3 Mode with black bars. I guess it is kind of nice that I don't have to mess with the aspect ratio button on my tv, but I don't consider this real 16:9 support."
