Okami creator Hideki Kamiya rants about Nintendo Switch 2 leakers

Hideki Kamiya, who is now working at his new studio Clovers on Okami 2, has gone on a lengthy rant regarding Nintendo Switch 2 leakers.

Nintendo finally unveiled its new system today. However, that wasn’t before tons of different leaks surfaced online over the past few months. Everything previously reported about the system was pretty much spot on, including the new Joy-Con. Even the actual announcement date of the reveal turned out to be correct.

Below is a rough translation of Kamiya’s comments:

“I hope that all of the people who leaked Switch 2 information/those who helped leak it will be cursed for the rest of their lives to always have poop on the soles of their shoes when they get home.

The shitty leaker only acts for his own pleasure and self-satisfaction, not only is he not contributing to anyone’s benefit, he is incurring all sorts of opportunity losses, and has done nothing to be proud of in front of others. He is the worst of scum, so he should be covered in shit from head to toe and thrown out of the atmosphere… and then stop thinking and wander forever.

These damn leakers are in a position of responsibility where they have access to information that only a very select few know, yet what they do is nothing more than an expression of a filthy desire for approval that lacks a shred of rationality; they are shameful people, so it is not the manufacturers whose secrets have been exposed who should be blamed, but these damn people, and they need to be crushed as soon as possible.”

In his comments, Kamiya also brought up the announcement of Okami 2 at The Game Awards in December. The game was not leaked and came as a massive surprise to fans.
