This proves my point that this game wouldn't sell better in any HD console due to the watered down controls, despite of the graphical treatment.

From now on, sales for each platform shall differ even more since it is a known fact that Wii software usually has more legs than the HD consoles.

This should be enough to stop the wrong discussion that went a few weeks ago about PS3 or 360 being more appropriate to sell a franchise like no more heroes, which they aren't.

 

 

If they were released at the same time you'd probably be able to make that conclusion, but since this port is incredibly late and a sequel for it actually came out before this port there are other mitigating factors that make it so you cannot in good faith make that conclusion.

Well the sequel NMH2 hasn't actually been released in Japan yet. Last I heard there was no release date for it announced in Japan, so who knows if/when it will be released.
