It's OK, Capcom. You weren't the only ones to leave an IGN watermark on your own Okami art. Bradygames left one on the cover of their Okami Wii strategy guide, too! What's even kookier is that the watermark appears in a different spot on the book's cover than on the game's cover, meaning it's not just a case of re-using the same art from Capcom's cover. Whoops. Wonder if they'll offer replacement dust covers?

So your parents, grandparents, or sugar daddies have gone out and purchased this hot new Wii they've been hearing so much about, only now they don't know what to do with it. Sure, it came with pretty clear instructions, but those instructions were free, and you can't trust anything free. Enter Prima Games' new book, You & Wii: Everything You Need to Know. Due out February 6th, it contains vital information on the menu system, setting up your console, connecting to the internet...even creating photo puzzles, the main reason I bought the Wii in the first place.

Also in the book is a comprehensive Wii Sports strategy guide, with strategies and secrets galore. It also features an amazing customizable cover, thanks to included Mii stickers...you know, in case you and your loved one both get a copy of the guide and don't want them getting mixed up.

Kidding aside, this sounds like an excellent book for retail sales clerks to try and get you to buy when purchasing and new Wii console. For an additional $5 you can get the extended book warranty that allows you to replace it should you attempt to read it in the shower, something I can completely see someone who spends $17 on this guide doing.
