While not in the hands of original Okami developer Clover Studios, Capcom's upcoming Okamiden for Nintendo DS looks like it's going to be a worthy successor.
The game picks up as a sequel to the original, following the offspring of the characters found in Clover's original tale. Okamiden will have players revisiting familiar areas, as well as discovering some new, marrying the game's brush-stroke gameplay with the Nintendo DS touch screen.
Okamiden is out in Japan at the end of September, with a North American and European release set for 2011. Here's a three-minute tease of what to expect, and if you're anything like me, the anticipation is burning your soul.

Every time I see a trailer for this game it looks better and better. I cannot express adequately how much I am looking forward to this game!
No thanks, put it on a real console, please.
Where the best game is a weekly firmware update.
The "cel-shaded" graphics don't do a damn fucking thing..it still looks like shit!
Makes me so mad!
THE ENDING OF THE GAME SHOUTED, WAIT FOR THE SEQUEL. I can't replay the gam eot the end because its depressing to know that that story will not be finished.
