![]() Put all that together and you have the best possible interface the lupine goddess could ask for. With the Switch, not only do we have a massive advancement over the Wii’s iffy motion sensors, but also the ability to draw on the touch screen when in tabletop or handheld mode. With a lot of the action and story progression coming from the player drawing, any system with motion controls would be a match made in heaven (or the Celestial Plane, as it were). The controls have, thankfully, improved after all these years. The graphical limitations of the Switch, a divisive point of some other ports, are null and void here and at no point does the visuals a disservice. I have no shame in saying I put off writing this review after an extended play of the game just so I could see the Dragon Palace in HD before my very eyes. Just the idea of seeing a game so beautiful on something roughly the size of the original GameBoy is something I genuinely can’t get my head around, but just makes the gorgeous visuals even more appealing. The sumi-e style the game is drawn in, based on old Japanese brushwork and watercolors, truly comes to life, especially in handheld mode. I originally played the much maligned Wii port and it was gorgeous even then but this HD port is absolutely breathtaking. Okami is, point blank, the single most beautiful and aesthetically pleasing game I’ve ever played. Best described as Legend of Zelda infused with Japanese mythology and folklore, Okami was known for its “Celestial Brush” mechanic in which your godly powers are channeled through actually drawing on the world, and the gorgeous art style.įirst and foremost, we have to talk about the art. You must traverse across the land of Nippon (Ancient Japan) and cleanse the land of demons that have overrun and corrupted the world since the awakening of the dreaded beast Orochi. Originally released on the PlayStation 2 way back in 2006 and then getting a Wii port in 2008, Okami is a game in which you play as Okami Amaterasu, the Japanese goddess of the sun revived in the form of a white wolf. If I may be bold to say, it may be the most perfect port of anything I’ve ever played. The latest of these re-releases is the beloved Okami title. ![]() Besides, the simple fact that now you can play some of the greatest games, namely RPGs, of all time on the go is really the only selling point you need. While that may be true to a certain extent, this isn’t to say that some of those remakes and re-releases aren’t bloody amazing. The Nintendo Switch seems to have obtained a bit of a reputation for itself as a rectangle that just plays games other systems have had for years.
