You're probably correct.

Like I said, Capcom likely doesn't see things like retro compilations and a Zelda-like experience to be viable on a Nintendo platform.

Brilliant. Keep 'em coming!

Oh dear it seems people are upset ITT about this topic of discussion. My bad.

 

[GhostTrick]

How were Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD Edition for PC, Dead Rising (PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One), DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen (PC)? Should be a decent remaster/port.

I take it that QLOC is behind it ?

This one in particular was great.

Eh, if anything, it's the less good one.

 

[Nanashrew]

I know. I have a Switch too but that is getting old. If this is true and they didn't make a Switch version it's because it wasn't planned. End of.

I love my Switch but people should stop begging or demanding... it’s ridiculous.

I believe it's mainly getting brought up in here is because it's a Zelda-like adventure game and the Wii version is still the best selling version of the game.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Weird no switch, you'd think that'd be right on Capcoms lazy money making scheme.

 

[Mediking]

I love my Switch but people should stop begging or demanding... it’s ridiculous.

Its easy to understand the frustration though.

PS4 is selling like crazy.

Alotta games are for it.

Switch is selling like crazy.

A good number of games are for it.

Switch owners just want that PS4 rush of nonstop games.

 

[KaoteK]

Oh hell yeah. In for PC version.

 

[Scrawnton]

It'd be the most Capcom movie ever to not bring this to Switch so I'm not even surprised.

 

[leng jai]

Hopefully they patch in an option to skip the entire first 20 minutes.

 

[PantsuJo]

Hopefully they patch in an option to skip the entire first 20 minutes.

Modders will do it for sure, on PC.

 

[Turrican3]

Not necessarily.
In this particular case, I just think it would make sense to bring a game like Okami to a somewhat proven audience. Switch absence feels a bit weird but hey, so does the whole Monster Hunter drama.

 

[Usobuko]

I'll buy it again.

I bought 2 physical Asian copy and one digital version on PS3 last time. Also owned the Wii version.

Will buy on PC this time and maybe PS 4 if I wanna platinum again.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Eh, if anything, it's the less good one.

I'm speaking mainly on the quality of the remaster itself.

 

[Scrawnton]

Not necessarily.

It's not even that. This game already had an HD port last gen. If Capcom wanted the easy cash grab that could sell the most, putting this game on a portable system would be the biggest reason for people to buy it. I already own this game on PS3, I'm not buying it again on PS4. But I'd sure as heck buy a portable version of it.

"Port begging" is a failure on the part of the publisher to recognise their game's proven and potential audiences. It's not like people are clamouring for a Switch version of Red Dead 2 or Destiny 2 or something like that, this is a PS2/Wii Zelda-like with a cartoony art-style that hasn't been released on a portable before; Capcom has to be blind to not see that.

 

[GhostTrick]

Me too. I think it had some issues with anisotropic filtering. And also because compared to it, Dragon's Dogma was a super release, with unlocked framerate, amazing controls, unlocked resolution, higher res textures.

It did on PS4, but was patched.

Eh...not really - its not like people expect every AAA game on Switch,
but for stuff like Megaman Lecacy Collection or now Okami you gotta wonder why Capcom i missing out on the Switch option.

If Rockstar can have LA Noire on Switch....you would hope Capcom could bring games to the system that have appeared on past Nintendo systems.

Okami isnt a PS4 exclusive but a standard multiplattform Remaster - people will ask why a viable plattform is being left out on these releases.

 

[Hero of Time]

Nice, so the rumor turned out to be true. And a PC version too!? that's a nice surprise, hopefully it's a good port.

 

[ChryZ]

Okami is such a good game. I'm glad it continues to be available. Clover Studio forever. I will finally double dip and pick up the PC version (if a good port).

Agreed. Games that make alotta sense on Switch should really be there because they will sell well.

I give Ubisoft applause for supporting Switch. I bought that MarioXRabbids game and I can't wait for Rayman on Switch.

And Capcom IS supporting Switch but just in their own bizarre way. Lol

 

[Asd202]

Not necessarily.

Yeah right in every new game announcement you see people port begging.

 

[Turrican3]

I see where you're coming from.
I guess both are valid criticism/reasons to feel baffled about Capcom behaviour.

To be fair to them though I would add that a currentgen HD port makes sense considering Okami HD was PS3 exclusive.

Yeah right in every new game announcement you see people port begging.

And you point is?

 

[mrmickfran]

If they can finally license the credits, instant double dip.

No credits, then I stick with my PS2 copy.

 

[Mediking]

Its also just Capcom beijg Capcom.

They're just reaching back in their vast catalog and is determined to port anything worthwile or not.

 

[BGBW]

Switch will get an Okami Den port instead.

 

[offshore]

Good news, though are we/should we really expect substantial improvements over the PS3 version? PS3 version was a masterpiece; beyond gaining 60fps, it's hard to imagine many more improvements. Though they should really look at changing the sound of the voices to something more... aurally pleasant.

 

[n128]

SWITCH is not on sale in Korea,
not sure if any of you know this before asking the absence of SWITCH version.

 

[matrix-cat]

I just played (and Platinum'd) this recently on PS4, but I'll probably buy anyway in the hopes of more Clover remasters. Viewtiful Joe in HD, God Hand with an unlocked framerate...

 

[Lonely1]

I wonder is PS4's will support Move.

 

[BasilZero]

Time to double dip on PC!

 

[Bluth54]

They could add more scenes that trick you into thinking the game is about to end.

 

[Surface of Me]

Capcom is rereleasing everything theyve ever released this gen. I anticipate the release if Viewtiful Joe on X1.

 

[Anteater]

neat, i hope they at least get it to run at 60fps

 

[WadiumArcadium]

I missed it when it originally launched so I'd definitely pick it up on PS4.

 

[Drunkbag]

I hope more PS2 games will be remastered and released on PC
Then I won't regret selling my PS2

 

[Jawmuncher]

Guessing this'll be announced at TGS

 

[MrCarter]

Weird no switch, you'd think that'd be right on Capcoms lazy money making scheme.

Capcom is the only company (which is a running business) doing HD ports of their older titles? News at 10!

 

[Lime]

You can just use PCSX2 for most titles. There's even widescreen patches and whatnot by some amazing people

 

[Neff]

Oh boy, PC means that even if they cut Reset again some intrepid modder can just add the song back in. Alright, I'll.... quadruple dip?

The Japanese PS3 version had it, so it's reasonable to assume the Japanese Remastered versions might too.

 

[OneLessIcon]

I'll double-dip on 1X. I've had the PS3 version sitting in the backlog for a long time so it's time to finally play!

 

[Unreal Champ]

And you point is?

Because it ruins the damn topic.

 

[Naliem]

Gimme those sweet 60 fps.

 

[denpanosekai]

Physical PS4 please... not digital only like PS3!

 

[black070]

Capcom's ports have been great so far - reasonably priced and at 60fps (excluding Dragons Dogma I think). Will definitely be in for this.

 

[BigEmil]

Capcom likely determined there isn't much of a market for a Zelda-like experience on that platform.

Not every game is 'Zelda-like'

 

[Byvar]

I'll double dip. Already got the PS2 version, but never owned a PS3 so I have yet to see Amaterasu in all her HD glory. I'm hoping for 60fps.

Physical PS4 please... not digital only like PS3!

PS4 and XB1 versions were already leaked through an Intertoys (a shop in the Netherlands) listing so I guess those two are getting physical releases. PC will probably be Steam only.

 

[Capra]

Nice. I've always considered it a sin that I only ever played the less-than-stellar Wii port... Granted I loved it even with the spotty controls and neutered presentation, but still.

 

[∀ Narayan]

Was hoping for a PC version! Cool.

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Just let me use the touchpad on PS4 to brush.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Just announce it already! And please release the disc. They didn't when it came out on PS3.
