Talk about a mistranslation! Awhile back, we heard that Suda51 was calling it quits for the No More Heroes franchise on Wii. That interview went on to say that the franchise was going to continue on 360 or PS3. A sad day for Nitnendo fans, it was.
Well I have great news...that interview was mistranslated! Suda has full intentions of continuing the franchise...but he'll do so on Nintendo's next platform! Check out this portion of a 1up interview with Suda...
1UP: You mentioned once that No More Heroes 2 would be the last game in the series on Wii. Have you done any experiments on what it might be like on another platform, especially with the new motion controllers that have been announced for other systems?
GS: Actually, I answered differently, and it may have been misinterpreted. What I wanted to say was, looking at the Wii, I think No More Heroes 2 will probably be the last iteration for this current platform. But there's probably going to be a "Wii 2" or other next-gen system from Nintendo at some point, so I was saying that I would want to do another game in the series on the next Nintendo platform.
I want to continue the No More Heroes series, but I've finished the story for Travis. It's completely finished in No More Heroes 2. So I want to think of a different story -- a different character, or something like that within the series -- starting on the next Nintendo platform.
Well, that's much better! I have a huge smile on my face after reading that. I also got a smile when I read Suda's impressions of Miyamoto...1UP: Yeah, I don't think Mr. Endo became very recognized in America, because of bad timing, I guess, which was kind of a shame.
GS: Oh, is that so? Yeah, he's a videogame god.
1UP: Even higher than Erik Chahi? [Laughs]
GS: Well, Erik is still human. Endo, Miyamoto... they're the gods
