Capcom Classic Okami HD Stalks Its Way To Switch This Summer

Can't wait for this one! Never played it on Wii and I really enjoyed the DS version so to me, finally getting this on Switch was a huge highlight of the Direct.

Along with many more ported games. Disappointing.

Physical or bust.

Of course Capcom would screw this up.

Buying for the 5th time.. I don't have a problem...really.

Say nothing @NEStalgia... The statue means nothing.

Like @sillygostly I would love to get this game, but it does have to be a physical release.

Great game. Every gamer need to try it. Happy to have it on portable.

@zool When a port is this good bring lots of them. Video games are not fruits in your fridge with an expiry date. Get over it.

I mean the “original” on Wii was still a port of a PS2 game, so it’s not like it was that weird that Switch wasn’t announced for this. That being said, I was gonna odd on Okami HD but having it on a portable system is possibly gonna change my mind.

Though I agree the ports are getting out of hand.

I gasped at this reveal, my highlight of the Direct. A shame if it’s e shop only, but that’s Capcom.

Yes please. $40?

Deleted from PS4 wish list, added to Switch wish list.

Heck, yes.

Yay it's about time! Soon I'll be able to cherry bomb Rao anywhere!
... she's suprised every single time

never played this one, had my eye on it but glad I didn't get it on pc.

Yes. Yes I will

The original was in ps2, the wii version was a later port.

Still getting this, played a bit of it on ps2.

I haven’t bought the PS4 version yet, even though it was on sale for like $13 last week. Glad I waited. Switch version, woohoo.

The highlight of a very bland Direct. Offered nothing new I personally care about. Oh, well.

I'm very interested but I really hope they do a physical release.

@Cosats - Superbly put.

Glad I waited. This will be best on Switch.

@zool go see a doctor. Cool avatar btw.

Capcom righting the wrongs. With both touch and motion support?

Well played.

I'll get it on sale. I have the Wii version but I never finished it.

Day 1. I was literally bouncing in my seat when I saw this pop up in the Direct! Hell yes!

Yeah I'm buying this again even though I have it on PS4

Capcom is growing a brain as of late.

I was considering double-dipping since I already have the Wii version, but if it's eshop-only, it'll probably be a no-buy for now.

Should have released on Switch alongside the other version, but better late than never, I guess.

Now I can play this game with the Queen's peach cleavage on my face undocked

Hell yeah!

I sent my PS4 copy back on release day as was hoping for switch release.

Day 1 for me no doubt

@Prof_Yoshtonics Oh cool, so.. Are you going to state your opinion now on every article?

Europe might not be getting a physical release but hopefully other regions will. Might have to import this from North America.

Yes. I definitely will be getting this one.

@Saego Sure. That's what the site's for. I probably need a day or so and I'll find a silver lining in the Direct but for now, I'm genuinely disappointed.

Okami HD with touchscreen/ motion controls = day one buy.

Definitely excited to play one of my favorite games of all time on the go! Perfect fit for this game

Woohoo I was looking to play this again! Sure!

@zool

yeah. COD 1000 would be much cooler.

I have never played the wii version. I have a copy but its a Japanese import and I don't have a Japanese wii.

It's a solid game with a lot of Stuff to do.

I'm good with playing it the one time I did, I don't feel the need to double dip.

Easy money, glad it’s finally true.

Awesome! I've always wanted to give this game a go, looking forward to its release!

Did they fix the "fight the same boss 6 times problem?" If not, then i wouod have to pass.

Seriously, this is the best news this year for me.

I dunno what they changed but this is the first time the graphics/visuals in Okami have actually appealed to me.

Yes, Capcom finally moved their butts! And it has motion controls, so definitive improvement. We need a physical release for this, don't screw it up Capcom, please!

Hell yes, day one.

Why is this not available physically?!

Never finished it on the Wii...motion controls were too finicky. I'll definitely give it another go.

Never heard of this game at all. But, it looks really fantastic. Not too sure about motion controls, but the touch screen idea should be good.

MAKE SURE THERE WILL BE A RETAIL OPTION CAPCOM!! 😡

Physical or no sale. Everyone make sure you email Capcom re: physical and on Twitter

Please be physical, that's my only wish for this.

Cool. I already have The best version (PC) but glad To see it on another platform.

Reason I got it on PC is so that I will never loose it again.

I own this on Wii, it got great reviews but I couldn’t really get into it despite its appeal to me. I would’ve considered giving it another go, but only on a cartridge.

I don't care how much they want for it.... TAKE MY MONEY!
Seriously, this announcement was overdue. I need this game in my life... on my Switch.

No interest in this game what so ever! I'd rather they released an English patch for monster hunter xx

@sillygostly Wasn't HD a download-only on PS4 as well, initially? Japan aside, if I'm not mistaken. I'm holding off until the Switch gets the same treatment. In Europe, that is.

played a good chunk of it on ps2, afa bonny and charming as hell game. if the price is right I could double dip, if you have never played it, get it, well worth it, very zelda gameplay...

Physical or nothing, c'mon Capcom!

I was admittedly kind of tired with all the ports and remakes in the Direct yesterday, but I think I might pick this up anyway. I have it on Wii as well but I never really did play it all that much... hope to fix that here.

@Ryu_Niiyama i said nothing of your weaboo's leg lamp

(I'm buying this too . )

Damien McFerran, the original was on PS2 in 2006. The Wii version was another version with wiimotion in 2008.
Why no retail again?

Bugger, just bought this recently on PS4, would totally have held out for the Switch version if I'd known. Bah.

@NEStalgia That's...that's cold man.

The other versions of Okami HD are only 19.99. I'll definitely double dip, but only if there's no Switch tax for this version.

Still one of the greatest gaming masterpieces of all time.

@sinalefa

Well, half a brain at any rate.

I missed Okami on the Wii and I never bought the HD port on Playstation. I'm very much looking forward to trying this game out on the Switch. Just wish it was getting a physical release, since the game is beautiful and would benefit from the artwork on the case!

@Ryu_Niiyama I didn't say I'm not jealous....but....it's a valid description all the same.....

@NEStalgia I didn't even buy the one that lights up! I have some restraint.

@Ryu_Niiyama Ohh, I thought you had the leg lamp model. My mistake. In that case it's merely swag.

The lamp one....that's a bit much muchness.

@NEStalgia I couldn't justify paying over 700 dollars for a statue. ....Nearly 700 is much better..

eShop only when retail version on PS4 and Xbox One is 20€? No, thanks.

Full price, only half of the game on the card, not the real HD version, I can see it all happen!

But seriously, if it doesn't look bad and it comes complete on the card you guys should try it (if you haven't played it before). I have the Wii version, its great!

Capcom should make a sequel on Switch. That definitely needs to happen!

Played the original on the ps2 back in the day but never beat it, definitely getting it this time around and beating it

Anyone who hasn't played this, really must. It's an incredible experience. Not sure I'll buy this again, as did play the Wii version to death.

I never got around to playing it on the WII, so will probably pick this up at some point either here or PS4, would rather pick it up on Switch but like others above, would like a physical release. But if it sells well on e-shop i think a physical release will also be coming.
