Some of you here know about my ongoing love for Okami. I’ve been pretty vocal in the forums about how much the game impressed me. It does have its faults, but the title is just such an engrossing an charming adventure that I became hooked almost from the beginning.

So, of course I can’t help but hope that Okamiden, a new trademark discovered in the Japanese database, is some sort of new Okami title. Even though Capcom has never really expressed interest in a sequel in the past, the company does own the rights to the IP. Unfortunately, you can never be too sure how these trademark findings will turn out. I, however, would be incredibly happy to see Amaterasu in another Okami title.

If there’s one thing that Sonic’s known for, it is his insane speed. However, it was decided that the character should drive a car in Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing. When it comes down to it, it does make sense that the blue hedgehog would be much too fast for the competition. Although, that’s just one of the reasons why Sonic drives a car in SEGA’s new racing title. Will Tarratt, Sumo Digital Senior Designer, provided a full explanation in a recent interview.

“The quick answer is that we did try it to start with. We knew that people would want to see that…However, he’s really quite different to all of the other vehicles and we wanted a bit of continuity…And it’s quite strange to control something quite small running around a track with cars. And then you get the problem of what happens when they hit each other. He can’t be run over by a monster truck. So what it came down is that it was more fun, it was a racing game, fundamentally everyone is in vehicles, stick Sonic in a car and it’s as much fun for the player so they don’t get confused or disoriented when they’re driving. And also, it wouldn’t be fair, the guy was way too fast when he was on his own…We’ve gone through a number of iterations…He should please with his speed in the speedster.”

“No, it will not [release on Wii]. The hardware of the Nintendo is less than that of the other next-gen game consoles and the gameplay is very different.” – Katsuhiro Harada, producer of Tekken 6

Mr. Harada’s statement about the Wii hardware is true, but I don’t see any reason why the gameplay wouldn’t work on Wii. On the other hand, we have seen some disappointing results when developers have attempted to port over a 360/PS3 title for Nintendo’s console. What do you guys think?
