They weren’t nearly so patient with Okami around that time. They barely communicated around it, killed the studio, then commissioned a port they…barely communicated around again, and then they complained the game was doomed to be a commercial failure because… I don’t know.
It’s basically like one of the better classic Legend of Zelda games, only with a unique universe and charm and about twice the size of those.
It was criminally overlooked on PS2, but they have zero excuse for not turning it into a major hit for the Wii. One of the best game on a console with an absurd install base and that had almost no competition for it at that point.
Okami is good but frankly overrated. Dialogue is so slow huge portions of the game, particularly the intro, are a slog to get though. That plus a weird setting doesn’t translate well to mainstream adoption (read: sales).

Hope so, but Mon Hun wilds story and walking sections give me pause for concern
