No More Heroes Designer Keen On Project Natal
While originally rumored for the Xbox 360, No More Heroes is a Wii title. Though, Microsoft's Project Natal announcement at E3 might be enough to lure Suda's upcoming motion controlled games to the Xbox 360. More » -

Why Goichi Suda Brought Beer To The Interview...
Several nights ago at some party here, I asked Grasshopper Manufacture president Goichi Suda if No More Heroes 2 was going to be announced at TGS. He said, "No", that he didn't know about NMH2, no, no, no. Told Suda he was lying, and he promised he was not — promised a beer that if he was lying. And low and behold, yesterday Marvelous Entertainment announced No More Heroes 2, and Suda brought a beer to our interview today. Suda was lying.

Goichi Suda Has Not Given Up On You Nintendo Wii
When asked how No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle was different from No More Heroes, Grasshopper Manufacture's Goichi Suda jokingly pointed out that the titles were not the same and that in-game outfits had changed as well. M'kay! "We wanted to do it for the Xbox 360," Suda said, "but the Wii's motion controlled interface feels the best." For Suda, that interface is exactly what No More Heroes is. More » -
The Silver Case
Old Suda Game Coming To PSN
Waaaay back when he first started designing games, Goichi Suda and his Grasshopper team put out a game called Silver Case. Was a kooky murder investigation game. Well, as part of Grasshopper's ongoing tenth anniversary celebrations, it's been announced the game will be re-released. Well, re-released again, since a DS version's already on the way. That's the good news! The bad news is that, as a PS1 game, it'll probably be Japan-only again, leaving it available only to the more enterprising digital importers amongst you. More » -

No More Heroes Does OK In America (Probably Better In Europe)
Marvellous Interactive have published some worldwide shipping/sales figures for Suda's No More Heroes. In Japan, homeland of all parties involved? It's done terribly. Only 40,000 copies have shipped since launch. Ouch. How about America, then? Little better: they've shipped around 200,000 copies, and have sold just over 100,000 since launch. Not bad! Finally, however, they announce some European numbers. And while the game's not even out there yet (it's shipping late Feb/early March across all PAL territories), they're expecting to sell 160,000 units across the continent at launch. Could something finally be coming up roses for Suda? Let's hope so! More » -

Watch No More Heroes Lose Gallons Of Blood
Want to see what Wii owners in Europe and Japan are missing out on, in terms of flowing rivers of blood, decapitations and amputations? Then watch xserothx's No More Heroes Death Scene Comparison clips for a study in regional censorship. This is grisly stuff, folks, and not for the faint of heart of virtual murder. Anyone wary of spoilers should skip 'em, as they're essentially every boss fight in the game. More » -

3rd Party Titles Not Selling Comment "Misinterpreted"
Remember when No More Heroes creator Goichi Suda said third party Wii games weren't selling? And then we looked at the sales chart and saw that, save Mario Party and Sonic and Mario at the Olympic Games, Suda was right. But no, no, no. Suda says that quote was taken out of context, misinterpreted. On his company's website, Suda tries to clear the air: More » -

No More Heroes Censorship Explained...Kinda
No More Heroes was supposed to be a gorefest in Europe and the US. But to every Australian Kotaku writer's surprise, the game will have the blood censored for its Europe release. In the theme of pretending we care about markets outside the US, we thought that we should let you know that Grasshopper CEO 'Suda 51' and Marvelous's Yashiro Wada made a joint statement today on the matter that should clear things up a bit:First, let me say how honoured I am that everyone in Europe is expecting No More Heroes....The sales point of this game is action. Both I and Wada san have concentrated on making the best possible action game for the Nintendo Wii. We have chosen to release in Europe the same version as has shipped in Japan considering the broadly growing Wii market.
In other words, everyone thinks this will be a more lucrative plan. I prefer the subtlety of ash fountains to spurting blood anyway. More » -

Ubisoft Picks Up No More Heroes For U.S. Release
Grasshopper Manufacture's No More Heroes may not have Halo 3 or Grand Theft Auto IV hype behind it, but we're certainly looking forward to Goichi Suda's next. Fortunately, for us English speakers, IGN reveals that the game finally has a Western publisher who's brave enough to take on the Wii follow up to Killer 7. Ubisoft have stepped up to the plate to bring No More Heroes stateside. The even better news? Travis Touchdown and his cel-shaded mates will be coming to the West in February of 2008. More » -

Bathroom saves, nothing new! Dead Rising has 'em. Silent Hill has 'em. And now it looks like No More Heroes has water closet saves as well — with hot sitting on the throne action. Once again, leave it to game creator Goichi Suda to push the envelope further. Toilet saves are so the new black. More » -

Suda51 Announcing Something Soon to Somebody
Vague, I realize. Goichi Suda, Killer7 creator, tells SEGA brownman Toshihiro Nagoshi that he'll be announcing something in the next few weeks. No More Heroes is a while off, and Suda's got his fingers in several pies, so I'm curious: What is he announcing? Info about his Snatcher project with Kojima? His proposed PS3 game? His unannounced Xbox 360? What? Like I said, I'm curious. -

Suda on Western, Japanese Gamers
Some Japanese game developers and publishers really don't care about the international market. As long as the domestic customers are happy, then that's all that matters! And hey, if foreign players buy the games, that's just an added bonus. So old fashioned! But some devs are open minded, forward thinking even. Take No More Heroes creator and Grasshopper Manufacturer bossman Goichi Suda. He wears cowboy boots! Here's his two cents on reaching an international market: More » -

Suda Is A Punk
Critics darling and Killer 7 producer Goichi Suda talked about artistry and business at last week's GDC. He explained that there are two types of creators: Business-oriented and art-oriented. For business devs, the client's wishes and expectations are priority numero uno. But the arty-types, it's their vision. (Though, Suda does admit that basically all game developers must be business-oriented, because, well, it is a business!) But at the end of the day, he says that he and his company Grasshopper Manufacture hold art in the highest regard thanks to, and we quote, "punk spirit." Not so much anti-authority, but rather, he's talking about doing something different from others. Take Killer 7, which he made with Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami. Suda explains: More »
