Capcom Files New Trademark for Okami Sequel? on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Japanese Powerhouse Capcom has been caught filing a new trademark; could it be a sequel to Clover Studio's Masterpiece?

Although talk of a sequel has occurred before, namely that the original would have to sell enough to warrant a continuation of Amaterasu's adventures, and considering that the Wii version has reached over 300,000 without even being released in Japan yet, there was chance of a sequel, but still not very likely with Clover's disbandment. Okamiden might change that;

Could the October 15th release of Okami Wii in Japan be drumming up interest for a potential sequel, or could Okamiden be something else entirely? Either way, few could question the best format of choice for any potential Amaterasu return.

Damn I sure hope so. To this day nothing has dethroned Okami as my favourite Wii game.

Considering that some of Clover's staff were absorbed into Capcom's internal teams (and the rest as we know went on to Platinum Games), I reckon a potential sequel would be in good hands.

Oh hell yes. I would so dearly love to see a sequel, if they could iron it out a few small minor annoyances from the first, they could deliver something even more spectacular.

Oh yeah, bring it on!

That game is truly brilliant.

Too good to be true.
I expect a remake/release/remix or something of it.
Maybe a PSP version.

Okami2 is too much to hope for.

I can't imagine what else it would be if not at the very least something related to Okami. I still haven't played the original, though, so this doesn't excite me too much... yet.

What is this thing I feel?

Hope?

You have missed something truly amazing. The first set of enemies are quite original and the painting system is fun to play with. Also has some good replay value since I'm still collecting stray beads. If you can find it buy it. Especially if your into Japanese folktales.

Indifferent, Okami was wonderful but maybe better as a stand alone thing.

I kinda doubt it's an Okami sequel or even related. Capcom has said, not too long ago even, that they have no interest in reviving Clover IPs.

Okami also didn't do too well sales wise in USA or Japan. So I kinda don't think they'd make a sequel this soon.

And, the world Okami is not unique and can mean different things.Yeah, It could be weird to use the word Okami in a Capcom game and not be related to Okami itself, but it can be.

Perhaps it can be even a subtitle to another game.
If the Wii version is coming out in Japan soon, then it could be related to that.

Guess we will have to just wait and see.

I want it, but it will be at the bottom of my list. I have sooooooooooooooo many games to get this fall, it's beyond not being funny and is now funny again!
