Want to know more about Marvelous Interactive's No More Heroes and its legendary creator, Goichi Suda (or Suda 51)? Then you're in luck as you'll see in this interview with the man himself how he explains the the rather tedious minigames in No More Heroes, his love of wrestling, and what titles he's currently working on. Sit back as we pick apart the crazy brain that is Suda 51's.
Let's move on first to just how he decided on making No More Heroes on the Nintendo Wii console. In fact, if the publishers had their way, No More Heroes would have been an Xbox 360 game - but Suda 51 admitted that because he was so excited about the Wii's then-newly-unveiled controller, he had to convince them that No More Heroes had to be a Wii game. And this, without spilling the controller's secrets. Tough.
What about the tedious, more-fun-than-they-should-really-be minigames in No More Heroes? Suda 51 explained that their existence in the game was due to the fact that most if not all of those who worked in the game had held quite their share of odd jobs, so it was a consensus that they should be put in. Also, Suda 51 and his team wanted to put across the message that while some jobs may not be important and you hate them, but you still do them to the best of your ability, it'll turn out well. That better times will come, after you've fastidiously cleaned graffiti off walls or collected every scorpion there is in an abandoned field.
As for wrestling, Suda 51 declared that he was quite a big fan. Evidently, since a large part of Travis' killing repertoire consisted of nothing but wrestling moves. This, he explained, was because he believed wrestling games would not turn out enough of a profit to justify it - so it seemed the easier route to include it in a game instead, rather than just make an entirely new title with it.
And about the sequel - it seems that Suda 51definitely wants to continue the story of Travis Touchdown, what with the cliffhanger ending and all. Here's his statement: "I'd love to make No More Heroes 2 for the Wii. But only if the original sells enough to convince the publishers. That's out of my hands now."
