Oh dear. In a listing for the upcoming Wii port of Okami on their company store, Capcom have posted a bunch of screenshots (the button prompts show it is indeed the Wii version). Tiny, tiny screenshots. Which are very, very concerning. With extra content out of the question, there were only two things that would set the Wii version apart from the PS2 one: Wii Remote brush control and 16:9. These screens look 4:3. A 4:3 game in 2008? Disappointing. So let's keep things optimistic and hope they're a cropping error, or are from an early build, shall we?

[UPDATE - Ah, blessed optimism. A product update on the very same page now shows that the game's been confirmed to support 16:9, 480p widescreen. I've never owned the same game twice before, but then, I'm not really one for tradition, either]
