now that's just F'ed up. I know it didn't really seel all that well on both sides, but man that was an incredible game and it deserved more. I just Wiki'd the game and a couple of Capcom games art style were inspired by Okami.
I think a sequel could do better if they advertise it well enough. Capcom releases a lot of new IPs. If they didn't have the money for it then I don't see how they would for other ones they released or are going to release.
