Okami cover replacements heading to homes soon

We’ve got an update for those who’re still looking forward to getting their Okami box art cover replacements. It seems you’ll be getting your confirmation email by next week and the actual replacements soon after. More on this after the jump!

Remember those Okami cover replacements you were supposed to get as a result of a watermark slip-up? Well, we’ve got an update on that situation, courtesy of Capcom‘s Colin Ferris.

Apparently, response was overwhelming, as a “flood of requests” came in for the new covers, though some people did try to multi-mail their way to getting all three covers (sneaky, sneaky!). That being said, Capcom managed to reduce the entries submitted multiple times to one entry, and removed all those entries that didn’t come from the United States and Canada.

Ferris does note one special thing about the covers Capcom will be sending out:

Our hard-working staff is almost done and we’ll be sending out the confirmation emails next week with art arriving in your mail shortly after. As a special bonus, the art will actually be double sided with the original Wii cover artwork on one side and the new piece of art on the other. Two for one is how we like to do things at Capcom.

If you happened to sign up for the free cover replacement, expect yours very soon.
