Suda said he was a fan of underdog consoles when talking about the Wii and also liked the console ans iirc was against the NMH portI think he said it's Switch exclusive because he wants Travis in Smash. Probably the facts that NMH on other console sold a lot less than on Wii and that they are a super small development team are important too.
Suda 51 loves to go crazy on gimmicks for NMH (bless him for that). The only reason NMH was on PS3 was because of the Move.
I wouldn't say that's weird at all. Personally I was left exasperated by No More Heroes 2 being such a "conventional" follow-up to the original game that I wasn't really looking forward to a NMH3 unless Suda retooled the entire premise or returned to direct the game. While this isn't NMH3 in name it most definitely fills the previous two quotas and has me actually interested in the franchise again.Honestly I am all for Multiplat release, but I suspect that aside from being developed and published by Grasshopper, Nintendo is putting forth a massive advertising push for this game, and in exchange for like 2 years worth of hype and press, it is very likely they have an exclusivity ( or at least times exclusive) contract.
On the topic of no More Heroes 3, is it odd that Travis Strikes Again is something I am looking forward to far more than a numbered sequel. As I mentioned in another thread, I feel these spinoff titles take more risks and end up being better, like Metal Gear: Ghost Babel, Metal Gear Acid 1-2, and Resident Evil Revelations....they take a lot more freedom and stray away from what is expected, and that makes the games feel more creative and more interesting.
And honestly I feel like Suda 51 is at his finest when he is taking risks and doing what he wants.
If Travis Strikes Again has even half the magic and creative love of a game like Metal Gear Acid...I will be thrilled. And knowing suda - San, this game will be magical AF.
Yeah, I do feel like if there was a No More Heroes 3, it would be amazing if they just tossed the last two games away, and had this new one follow Travis, Badman and Badgirl in some crazy grindhouse inspired road trip game...that had nothing to do with the UAA, but maybe was actually about being assassins.I wouldn't say that's weird at all.

If Suda does get to make a true blue No More Heroes 3, for the love of god; get rid of the UAA ranked assassins crap. It's a dead end and existed to satirize Travis' manchild fantasy of fighting to be the best, and ended itself on a note that highlighted how played he was to think there was a reward in it for him.
I wouldn't mind a remaster of the first 2 before Travis Strikes Again releases....heck I wouldn't mind a remaster of a lot of Grashopper games. I am over the moon that we got Sine Mora EX on Switch. Akira Yamaoka really knocked the soundtrack for that game out of the friggin park and it was an excellent port.Give the masses remasters of the first 2. The Switch is ripe for those 2. I imagine this game will do well. Would set everything up perfectly.
Their games look so good at high resolutions. They deserve more than standard definition.I wouldn't mind a remaster of the first 2 before Travis Strikes Again releases....heck I wouldn't mind a remaster of a lot of Grashopper games.

I want No More Heroes 3. No way will I purchase a 60 dollar mini game to make that happen. Good luck Suda.
Maybe people wanting that should have bought NMH when it was on PS360.Maybe he should ensure to release this game on PS4 and Xbox same day as well if he wants the best chance of the project being successfully.
Was already planning on it.
What is it about third party exclusives that seems to baffle people so much?Maybe he should ensure to release this game on PS4 and Xbox same day as well if he wants the best chance of the project being successfully.

Yes but it's not a hugely budgeted "No More Heroes 3". It's a side game called Travis Strikes Again and is more of a reintroductory spinoff that sees Suda directing for the first time in 10 years. It's a smaller and more intimate game calling back to his initial game dev roots of making crazier and more experimental stuff on the whim without dozens upon dozens of staffers to manage.Am I crazy? I thought there already was a new nmh game and we already saw a trailer for that.
Mini game? I really think Suda 51 needs to work on clarifying around this game and what it is, because I am honestly shocked at how many folks have zero concept of what will be releasing later this year. And I personally don't care enough to fully explain it a 5th time, so if someone else here wants to tell this joker why it isn't a mini game, be my guest.I want No More Heroes 3. No way will I purchase a 60 dollar mini game to make that happen. Good luck Suda.

Suda 51 just said in an interview that it was still on track for this year. And that he was very confident in that.There's no way Travis Strikes Back is coming out in 2018. Apparently there are certain scenarios that haven't even been written yet.
NMH3 2021?
