    Capcom just won the Okamiden arms race. Whereas GameStop offers a pretty cute paintbrush stylus with pre-orders of the celestial DS adventure game, Capcom's own online store is offering ... this. A tiny plush Chibiterasu keychain, small enough for you to bring with you everywhere, forever, like the most convenient best friend ever. We'll offer some free advice to other retailers: if you want any chance of attracting us away from this irresistible offer, you're going to have to take the loss and bundle a bigger Chibiterasu plush. It's a burden, we know, but if you want to succeed in this world, you have to give us really cute toys of baby Japanese wolf-gods.

    No matter how you feel about the prospect of a DS Okami sequel made without the participation of Clover Studio staff, there's one thing that absolutely everyone is agreed upon: Okamiden's protagonist, Chibiterasu, looks extremely huggable. And now Capcom has made a Chibiterasu that can actually be hugged: a 45 cm (17.7 inch) plush version. Here's the bad news (yes, there is somehow bad news related to something so wonderful): the doll is only available through Capcom's Japanese online store, and is expected to ship October 31. If you happen to have a friend in Japan, they can order it for you for 5,040 yen ($58). [Via Siliconera]
