Oh shit, I hadn't heard about this yet! Okami was one of those games from the early 2000's that felt really experimental and cool, a common theme at the time, especially for PS2 games. I feel like big game companies have largely moved away from that, which is really disappointing. Even this is just another sequel, but it's still one I'm really excited about!

If the game even looks slightly like the teaser I will be in love

I'm so mad that I heard about it second hand instead of watching the teaser firsthand during the event. Either way the hype is killing me

Wasn't Okamiden for the DS a sequel?

Not according to the original producer. He considers it a spiritual successor. (Link)

Okamiden was not made by Hideki Kamiya, and Kamiya himself considers Okamiden to be a spiritual successor, not a sequel.

So, to put it simply, Okamiden is not canon.
