Wow, I'm surprised they would come out with the sequel on the DS, instead of a console... mainly so they could use the strength of the larger consoles to create the immersive cel shaded graphics Okami is known for and the large overworld... I guess this will be a smaller game.
Graphics aside, the DS will be good for the touch screen, of course, and I'm excited to see how it turns out. Looks like the overworld is still going to be fairly large, especially for a DS game. It just looks like the frame rate is a bit slow right now... :x
