No More Heroes Likely Expanding Beyond Wii

No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle will most likely be the last No More Heroes game exclusively for Wii owners, according to an Edge interview with creator Suda 51. In order for the series to become the big franchise Suda 51 desires, it needs to expand.

“I think this is the last NMH [No More Heroes] that is going to be developed on Wii,” said Suda 51. “To expand NMH to new possibilities, we need a new platform. Wii is a great platform, but we’ve done everything we can with it now.”

I still haven't gotten around to playing No More Heroes. Friends have told me it's a tough game to go back to, but at the time, it worked. What say you, TheFeed readers?

    This Feed reader says that NMH is one of a very small handful of titles actually worth buying on the wii...and IMO it is the best. If you don't go back and play it you are missing out on something amazing. Simple as that...so do it...leave work right now and go do it....I'll wait here for you.

    it was fun when it first came out. neat that when the phone rang you heard it in the wii remote but this game is more a button masher and would fit perfectly on the DS, xbox, or Playstation platforms.

    it would be awesome on the ps3 and 360. all that blood on the screen would look freaking sweet.

    Thank the Heavens if this is true, since I will be selling my WiiK.

    No More Heroes is awesome. If you have a Wii (and you are of age), you really need to play this game. But don't take my word for it:

    ps3 already could have most of the motion controls down with the sixaxis. With the new Natal stuff on the 360 and the unnamed controls coming out on ps3, it makes perfect sense to send them over. The game looked great on the wii, I cant imagine how crisp they could make it on the 360 and ps3.


    And anyone with 30 bucks and access to a wii should have already played this game. I bought it brand new on the day it came out, It was my favorite game of 08.

    Its pretty fun, the in between missions you have to do get enough money to move on to the next big battle get pretty tedious at times. But getting to the boss fights makes it all worth it. The most cussing and blood Ive ever seen on the Wii in the first 5 minutes of gameplay hahaha. Travis Touchdown is my hero! Grab a bargain bin copy and enjoy!

    What do you mean "tough game to go back to"? Isn't it only a year old or so?

    Gotta go with EKG on this one. I picked NMH back up during a bout with the flu, and it was just as easy to jump back into after a year as it was to play the first time.

    Of course, mileage may vary on how much you love Suda 51's weird approach to game design. The comparisons to Jodorowsky's 70s-era "acid Westerns" apply here.

    Last time I checked, Suda said that the Wii was the best console he saw fit for the franchise. Is he eating his own words? Will Desperate Struggle be the LAST NMH on Wii?

    I guess I'm alone, but i didn't like this one. It was just like every other Wii game were i feel like a blindfolded kid swiping at a very small pinata, and the minigame side missions in between the kills were excruciatingly terrible. It reminded me of a low-res Assassin's Creed (and thats not a compliment).

    If this is true I can stop bitching and finally sell my Wii
    No More Heroes was the only reason I kept it and when 2 got announced I said I might keep it but now the Wii might not have a home now

    It's a killer game that is overflowing with creativity. However, the open-world segments... not too great.

    NMH is my favorite game of all time and it's the reason why I'm keeping my Wii. NMH in the PS3 = WIN.
