The very thought of this absolutely makes my blood boil. That such a beautiful, spectacular work of art like Okami could sell so poorly, while something like the latest Madden release will go on to sell a million copies, even though it has remained basically unchanged for more than a decade.
What does this say about our society? That something so wonderful could be held in such disregard... Bah... it seems like a recurring trend... nearly all of the absolute best games end up selling very poorly and are completely unappreciated.

You know its kind of funny you bring up that point. I didn't even think the game did that poorly when it came to sales. It practically scored high with a lot of video game critics, but oh well I guess you can't force a good game onto somebody who doesn't want to play it.
In terms of your madden comment, that is entirely true especially up here where I'm working. Sport games practically sell out faster than anything else, I have found so many rpg's and other rare games up in this area that its unimagineable.
Basically whats going to happen don't be surprised in Okami ends up being one of those $75-$100 rarity games, that it takes a long time for fans to discover how great the game is and then out of nowhere the demand for the game starts to go up.
I will probably not get this game for the Wii when it comes since i have the ps2 version. I would probably get it if they added some extra features, but just using the Wiimote as celestial brush is not enough of a sell for me.
I might get it if the price of it actually drops and nothing else is out that peeks my interest.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
