Suda 51 thought about No More Heroes on 360

In an interview with Eurogamer, Goichi Suda (AKA Suda 51), the main man over at Grasshopper Manufacture, has revealed that he put some serious thought into developing No More Heroes on the 360 instead of Wii. However, he goes on to say that it was the uniqueness of the Wii’s motion controls that won out over the 360’s processing muscle in the end.

“I was really considering making it on Xbox 360. I was actually thinking about it,” comments Suda 51 in the interview. “But one of the really good points of this game was the way we used the remote control. We were really good in that respect. I was really confident that this control scheme would be a hit. If we took the Wii out of the equation, we’d have lost that, so the answer was that we had to make it on the Wii.”

In the same interview Suda 51 went onto say that the recently announced sequel – No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle – would be a much darker game.

“I think it’s time for No More Heroes to become serious,” he remarks. However he then assures fans of the original that “It won’t be too serious” and it is still “going to have humour“
