HandsomeDead Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Yeah, Suda didn't specify it was actually a No More Heroes game, but he didn't say it wasn't, either. He's said he's had ideas for a third game as far back as when MNH2 came out so I'd bet it is a No More Heroes 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Quote The No More Heroes game announced for Switch at Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 is a completely new game, not a port, according to Grasshopper Manufacture creative director Goichi Suda. Speaking to 4Gamer, Suda said, “Actually, when I was on stage, I was going to say that it isn’t a port and that it’s a new title, but I completely forgot…” Pressed if that means it is “No More Heroes 3,” Suda responded, “That, I still can’t say. However, the script will be completely written by me, and for the first time in 10 years, I’m also doing the direction.” 4Gamer asked if the artwork of No More Heroes protagonist Travis Touchdown that accompanied the announcement was illustrated by Yuusuke Kozaki, who did the character designs for the previous games. “Yes,” Suda said. “Kozaki will of course be involved. However, this time, I’m thinking about having various other people participate. When I go to overseas events, I’ll once in a while come across someone who says ‘When you create a new No More Heroes, let me do the character designs.’ And these are famous people. So I think it would be good if we could do a of collaboration of that sort.” Suda asked 4Gamer if they’d be interested in them making it a title that can collaborate well with indie games. “That’s something I’ve been also thinking about,” Suda said. When 4Gamer asked for specifics, Suda replied, “I still can’t say.” When asked about the development status of the game, Suda said, “Regarding the story, while I haven’t written it down to the plot, the overall picture and essential parts have been solidified. And since the direction of the game design has almost been decided, we’re about to begin development.” As for the release window, Suda said that while 2017 is the 10th anniversary of No More Heroes and that he would like to release it this year, “it won’t be this year.” http://gematsu.com/2017/01/no-heroes-switch-completely-new-not-launching-2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Quote Grasshopper Manufacture's cult classic lightsaber dueling punk fever dream No More Heroes is getting a spin-off on Switch. It's called No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again. As revealed in a new Nintendo livestream, NMH: Travis Strikes Again is set seven years after the events of the first game and the CG trailer shows returning antihero and ace assassin Travis Touchdown facing off against the vengeful father of one of his fallen combatants: Bat Girl (the penultimate boss of the first game).Weirdly, Travis Strikes Again teased a Hotline Miami crossover as the game is being played in the background of Travis' trailer and the plot seems to suggest that Travis and Bat Girl's Dad get sucked into a video game console, Tron-style. Hijinks ensue. No actual gameplay was shown of No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again, but it's confirmed to be developed in Unreal Engine 4. It's been over seven years since No More Heroes 2 launched in 2010, though that sequel wasn't directed by studio founder Suda Goichi (aka Suda 51). In fact, the first No More Heroes, way back in 2007, was the last game Suda actually directed, with the exception of the recent remake of Grasshopper's 1999 sci-fi visual novel The Silver Case. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-08-30-no-more-heroes-travis-strikes-again-revealed-for-switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiofloyd Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 “Key visual” for the game, very stylish. This might be a nice palette cleanser to start 2019. https://gematsu.com/2018/11/travis-strikes-again-no-more-heroes-key-visual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGERMAN Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I was saying to someone that I might not buy any new games this month, Travis Strikes Back looks terrible and that's one I thought might tempt me. I still might pick it up one day as a novelty when it's really cheap, but it looks so basic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandsomeDead Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 A messy game like this is a hard sell on Switch since games for it are pretty expensive. This isn't the Wii anymore. And all the games referenced on t-shirts are likely a lot better and also a better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
