Suda 51 Discusses 'No More Heroes 2' on the Xbox 360
December 23, 2008 | 4:38 AM PST

by: Blake Grundman

The original No More Heroes was a Wii exclusive game that in true Suda 51 fashion, brought some interesting ideas to the table. Unfortunately, the game didn't sell like some expected, which put even a sequel in question. When the sequel was eventually announced, this led some to wonder if it would be making its way to the Xbox 360.

When speaking with GameSetWatch Suda discussed this very topic.
"One of the main reasons why we're back on Wii is because of the controller. When we released the first one on Wii, you had this feeling just finished with moving the controller; it was really good.

So, if we released it on Xbox 360, for example, we'd have to rethink this feeling. I wanted to keep the game's controller gimmick, so that's why the fighting was more fitting on Wii, rather than on other platforms." -- Suda 51 via GameSetWatch
That sounds like an effective enough denial to me, at least for the time being. It looks as if those on the Xbox 360 won't be getting their chance to kill some heroes anytime soon.

Interesting enough, the PlayStation 3 was left out of this discussion. Might sixaxis controls lend itself to the games unique control scheme? I know it seems like a stretch, but I have seen weirder things happen when Suda 51 is involved...
