Comment on Kamiya Critiques Wii Version of Okami | Retro Gaming News 24/7

For example the filter that makes everything kinda blurry and dream-like, and a whole ending sequence video with a song, artworks and animations.
Worst part is that video was not removed for a lack of time or anything, but just because it included credits and a logo from studio Clover. You know, the people who made the game to begin with.

Oh, that sucks. Surely they could have added the Wii-specific credits afterwards and kept the original video. I’ve seen that sort of thing done many times.

That would have been a correct way to do this, yeah. I’ve seen it done like that too, for example Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Hyrule Warriors Définitive Edition has both port and original teams in credits.
Going so far as removing a cool little ending song just because the video clip happened to reference the old studio is petty.

Nintendo has a bad track record on this though, the recent Donkey Kong release has this issue.

I think I’ve heard about this, yeah. That sucks. It could be as simple as one or two splash screens with the original studio in credits, and it’d be okay really.
