Upon its original release in 2006, the title won several awards, and was positioned not only as the video game of the year, but as one one of the best of all time. Because of this, the announcement of the sequel caused a sensation and it seems that now everyone needs a physical copy, which causes the title to raise its price.

About Okami
The official synopsis available on the Nintendo Switch page is as follows:
“Become Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess, who takes the form of a legendary white wolf (Shiranui). Use magical abilities, attacks, and celestial brush techniques to return the land of Nippon to its former splendor, full of life and color.”
Let’s remember that something very special about the video game is the artistic style of cel shading, a type of Japanese watercolor.
Additionally, Nintendo Switch added a way to use the paintbrush with the joy-cons. You can buy it here. At the time of writing this note, the price of the game in digital format dropped by 75%, and is around 99 MXN.
