Now this is how you fix a mistake.
Okami is one of the prettiest games available, but the Wii version shipped with a blemish right on the front cover. By Amaterasu's mouth you can plainly see an IGN watermark, complete with compass and logo. Even worse, a quick scan at my local Gamestop the other day showed that the preview box art had it on there too, meaning there was plenty of time to catch and fix this error. Oops!
It was a silly error, and Capcom is manning up to it with free replacement covers for all. Head on over to Capcom's website to snag one of three different covers for your game, free for the asking and no receipt necessary. One is the original art and back cover copy without that pesky watermark or unsightly Play Magazine score, but the other two are full wraparound art without even a Wii logo to mar them. Prettify your Wii copy or replace the original PS2 cover, they're system agnostic.
While you're indulging in appreciation for Okami's amazing style, it's worth dropping in to Okami Art for a look around. The art book they're promoting is pretty tempting.
