Katamari Damacy is possibly the most Japanese game ever to be fully embraced by North America. I'm surprised I haven't seen an artist re-imagine the game's art style in the one popularized during feudal Japan already.

The King of the Cosmos' concerned look over the Prince's progress is really what sells the piece.

You can buy a print of the art signed by the artist by heading here.
