Why not Okami?

[Qballony]

For anyone who has actually played Okami, it seems like Amaterasu would have a natural fighting style that would transition well to SSBB. However, there are 2 major counterpoints. One is that almost no one played Okami and so despite the excellence of the game, there is a lack of a fan base. Second is that the right to use Amaterasu would have to be acquired from Capcom in place of the closed Clover Studios (but hey, people are asking for mega man so why not). Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

I'll get in here before the fanatics tear you apart...

A requirement for a character's Brawl inclusion is that they MUST have appeared on a Nintendo console...



Add in that Midna/Wolf Link and our local space animal of the same name have the "Wolfish Characters" category filled and Okami just doesn't stand a chance.

Ahhh ****...forgot about the whole NES/SNES connection on Snake. Its a shame that Clover studios got shut down, because Okami 2 would have been great on the Wii with the paintbrush and then Amaterasu could have been in the following Super Smash game.

Okami was a good game shame about clover though i don't think we've seen the end of Okami...

I'd still rether have Megaman. Wasn't Okami only on the PlayStation2? Illegible character then.
