Desperate Struggle To Be Last Wii No More Heroes, Suda51 Says

 
Looks like the Wii will soon be saying goodbye to one of its "hardcore" franchises. In a new interview, Grasshopper CEO Goichi Suda said he wants No More Heroes to continue to grow, but that he feels it needs to go beyond Nintendo's platform to do so. "I really want to make NMH a big franchise, and with this second episode have bigger success. I'm putting a lot of care into developing this IP, as I feel there's a lot of potential," he told Edge . However, "I think this is the last NMH that is going to be developed on Wii." (link)
