Pehaps, but I just watched the 1up show and they said the game actually uses the accelerometer to determine how fast you are throwing the balls at targets and such. It's a great use of the Wiimote. Nick Sutner, who did not like the Wii controls in Okami (despite really loving the game on PS2), said the controls were more accurate than most games. Now, PS3 controller buttons are pressure sensitive, so pressing harder could substitude throwing harder...but it would seem if the pointing is accurate that it would be more fun on the Wii. Perhaps there will be a DS version, but I don't know if the touch screen is sensitive to different amounts of pressure.
