Forums - Gaming - Did Okami flop because Capcom failed to capitalize on racism?

It flopped because anything Hideki Kamiya is involved with these days flops.

2006 is "these days"? :p

I'm an old man, these days are 10 year periods for me :P

Bought the game, never finished it. I'm with everyone that the game in general wasn't that interesting.

Fair enough, I spoke from the perspective of a young whippersnapper. ;)



If only that wolf would have shot the other wolf with a machine gun, then this game would have become an instant classic.

He's Australian, cut him some slack.

Actually, he's Austrian. 

I'm Australian.

It's only the other side of the world. :p

It's an old joke. I thought it would be funny since this is a racism thread, and since he also always used that phrase towards toastboy, I thought I was being whitty by fitting 3 jokes in a 7 word sentence.

My bad, that one flew straight over my head... XD

Since when is a good, immaculate white hero fighting the evil, twisted black enemies racist? Maybe it flopped cause it made the game too realistic? ;P



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

That type of art-style turns off a lot of people sadly. Kamiya was also the director. He's a genius, but he's bad luck.
