If you look at a more recent post, you can print off any of the covers for free.

Hopefully this link takes you there:

Is there anything one can do if one recently bought a copy, but the box art is still watermarked? I got mine just a couple days ago but since the redemption period was kinda short…

…the watermark is rather off-putting…

I just picked up Okami (powered by IGN) today and found that I, too, missed the promotion that lasted what — three weeks? Seriously? Three weeks? Since I can’t have these printed at Kinkos due to copyright issues, what options do I have left besides staring at IGN’s watermark every time I pick up the case?

First of all - amazing support for your customers. Capcom are truly an awesome company…

I also live outside the US (in the UK), and was wondering how can I get hold of a copy of the new art work to replace the one ordered from DVDBoxOffice. Many thanks.

Awesome Capcom!
I’m totally getting the second one!

Also, people who are outside the region the game was released, you have not right to complain. Capcom didn’t mean to sell the game to you, in fact they even say it is not for sale out of the region.

The game is great but talk about damage control. If you hired the right ppl to quality check and know “the game” assets you wouldn’t have spent the company’s or should I say the worker’s bonus check to compensate for the loss. If you ask me, Capcom is still awesome, cool and great but after seeing this, it just made me realize how diminish quality control is there. Of course its everywhere, but cmon, why did you hire these ppl in charge in the first place. Please do some background checks and make sure everyone goes through the interview process, otherwise you guys and the art/design coming from there are just plain sloppy, period!

The box says “For sale, rental and use only in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Latin America” and yet the art redemption only cover US and Canada. They ARE leaving people out.

Think before you speak.

For people overseas, we won’t quite be able to fulfill this the same way, but if you have access to a color printer, we’re going to try to help in a different way soon by putting up PDFs for you.

You mean “the version that doesn’t even exist yet”? I’ll get right on that. Okami isn’t scheduled to come out in Europe until July, and Australia’s release date is still “TBA”. PAL gamers buy US Wiis and games because people in PAL territory get games months late and pay nearly twice as much for them as people in the US do. We are not pirating the game or doing anything illegal, we are legitimate paying customers who simply happen to be in a country where consumers get ripped off for entertainment media.

In fact I’ve bought Okami twice, once was the Australian PS2 version and now this version too.

Nonetheless, I appreciate that Capcom is doing this and I understand why they wouldn’t be shipping it internationally due to shipping costs. It would still be nice for them to do it since at the moment the only way I can get the replacement cover is to have it shipped to a friend in the US and then have them forward it onto me at my own expense, but I’ll live.

Capcom, thank you for the gesture even if I can’t benefit from it.
