“The distinctive feature of the Celestial Brush is just screaming out to be realised on the DS touch screen. I think it’s only natural that Okamiden was designed for DS. …Showing such diverse, sensitive colours that were seen in the original Okami was one tough task indeed. However, it was rather fortuitous for Capcom to have plenty of talented programmers and graphic designers that they have put everything into this title and recreated that very experience on the DS.” – Motohide Eshiro, the producer of Okamiden
Even though Okamiden takes place a few months after the original, Eshiro has said that this game is more of a sidestory than it is a true sequel. So I wonder if it would be possible to continue the “Okamiden series” on handhelds (3DS, anyone?) while Okami continues on consoles. I have to admit – As cute as Chibiterasu is, I will miss Ammy quite a bit!
