Sequels are a tough nut to crack. There’s always the question of what elements should be added, which ones to be removed, and which ones to iterate on. Sometimes developers try to change the core ideas of the original, and other times – they create sequels to spin-offs that didn’t garner much fan-interest in the first place. Either way, this can lead to these sequels being ignored by the fanbase – and to that end, here are 15 sequels that you probably didn’t know existed.

Metal Gear Acid 2

While the mainline Metal Gear Solid series has a lot of entries to its name, the Metal Gear property is also home to a couple of spin-off series – including but not limited to Metal Gear Acid. It’s possible that some fans may have tried out this hidden gem, but it’s very unlikely that you knew about its sequel, Metal Gear Acid 2 which was released in 2005. This follow-up to the card-based RPG is everything that fans would desire from a sequel, improving on the elements found in the original while introducing a few new ideas of its own.

Okamiden Special Collector Edition Detailed

There are games that achieve the status they deserve only years after they have been released. One such game was Okami, Capcom’s classic title for the PS2 and the Wii, which had a subdued launch, matched only by its lacklustre sales.

However, over time, word spread, and Okami today is one of the stand out titles of the past decade. A sequel was inevitable, and for Okamiden, the DS exclusive sequel to the original, Capcom is looking to give it a launch that only befits its legendary status.

Okamiden will have a special edition in Japan at release, which is loaded enough to put several console releases’ paltry collector’s editions to shame. The limited edition will ship with the game (obviously), a storybook illustrated with the same artstyle which has made the game series so remarkable in the firstplace, a soundtrack, a DVD detailing on the making of the game, a plush and adorable wolf keychain, and specially themed Okami headphones. Oh, and a giant wooden box to hold it all as well.

And the entire thing is priced quite reasonable (as collecotr’s editions go) at ¥8000, which is around USD$90.

Okamiden is the sequel to Okami, a game developed originally by Clover Studios for the PS2, and then later ported by Ready At Dawn to the Wii. Okamiden will release 30th September exclusively on the DS in Japan. The release date for the rest of the world is TBA 2011.

Thanks Kotaku!
