Seriously. This would be the most capcom move ever. Port a port in the hopes that most people will buy it again, which a handheld version would incentivize people to do so, and then decide to not port it to the system that it would probably do best on. I can 100% see capcom doing this.lemme know if you've heard this one guys:
q: how can you tell if a capcom leak is true?
a: you see if there's a switch version mentioned.

Kotaku UK: Okami HD coming to PS4 and Xbox One this December [Rumor]
- Thread starter BY2K
- Start date

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Heh, wow. I was just thinking about this yesterday. I rermember the whole "4k internal resolution thing" from back when the PS3 version came out, so I guess this makes sense. I'd gladly buy it again.

Probably in my top 3 games of all time. It's visually timeles I think, so they might as well keep re-releasing it each console generation on into forever. But of course what I really want is a real (or in spirit) sequel.

Will buy if true.
Okami was 1080P with 4xMSAA on PS3, nowhere even close to 4K.
It was a translation error, what they meant was it was running rotated grid sub-samples at 4x the resolution of 1080P, which is an odd way to say 4xMSAA at 1080P. Someone mistranslated that to "It runs at 4 times super sampling i.e. 4K".

I'll be amazed if this come to the XBone. Yes they have an install base but do they have a potential audience for this type of game there?

I hope so too but lol no way in hell
That's a mis-translation. It wasn't supersampled from 4k.

Guess I'll be importing this again for the vocal credits track.
Unless it's there with system-level language switch. Again.

If you still can't skip the cutscenes it doesn't matter.

Never got to around to picking it up for the PS3. Now that I only have a PS4 and an interest in playing it, I think this is wonderful.
Remasters are a win-win. Developers get to double dip without spending the same amount of cash as brand new development, and old fans/newcomers get something they liked or havent played. They aren't for everyone, but what is?

I hope these versions have "Reset" but I'm sure Capcom USA will cheap out on licensing again

I only played Omani for the first time in January on the PS3 and was very impressed with the port as well as game overall. I doubt I would buy it again but good news if true. Wonderful game.

Man I'm so tired of this game not getting a PC release.
Still stunned that happened.
it'll be a PC digital release I'm sure.
SunDimension24

It will most likely get a PC release, but a retail chain wouldn't have it listed since it would be digital only.
Crazy Diamond

I hope so but I thought the same about the Code Veronica re-release, so not getting my hopes up.

4K version would be nice if they can make it happen otherwise I don't see the point considering the PS3 version is 1080p.
Imagine a similar jump like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEFa9Ek2SPc , would be ace!

I'm guessing Okami isn't old enough to warrant a Switch port, huh? But seriously, only a company like Capcom could somehow convince themselves an XBO port makes more sense. Oh well

Wasn't that just the PS2 version?

I imagine DVD, blu-ray and album release calendars must really fill you with rage. "What's with all these new transfers and re-releases??"
This medium and community need to value game preservation more, not less.

Love to get the disc this time. I have it on PS3, but they only released it digitally in America.

Damn man. I knew the Switch was doing well but I didn't think the install base was higher than the Xbox One already.

There are much much worse things being milked and you're complaining about Okami?
I'm pretty sure the amount of people who'd buy a Zelda-inspired cartoony game about a Japanese god wolf is a tad bit higher on the Switch than it is on Xbox. Install base isn't everything; if it were every Switch game would be selling like shit compared to PS4/X1 games of equal caliber when that's nowhere near the case.
Okami Haundo

I understand that for sure, but I still think the smart business decision is the platform with the higher install base. At least in the fictional scenario where Capcom had to choose between Xbox One or Switch that is. That most likely wasn't the case, but it's the silly sounding scenario that the person I replied to seemed to suggest.

This is the one sore spot for me personally. Though I might bite if this somehow made its way to PC, I've already played through the PS3 remaster when it was released as well... so I'm probably satisfied with that for the time being.

the switch is roughly 20 million units behind the xbox one.
Okami Haundo

I'm not here to argue with 20 different people about where the Switch install base is right now or will be in the future. I just replied to a silly comment that seemed to suggest Capcom had the choice to do Xbox One OR Switch and chose Xbox One instead. It's a joke correction, chill.

I was hoping her first game leak would be more exciting than this
