The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of No More Heroes due in Japan this February won’t feature the same control scheme as the Wii version, despite both consoles boasting an upcoming motion control device. Marvelous Entertainment boss Yasuhiro Wada has said that Travis Touchdown will be played with analog sticks gome his high-definition arrival.
“Since the concept for the remake is to bring the game to a wider audience,” Wada told Edge Online, “we aren’t currently considering to use uncommon new technology. Basically everything will be controlled using the analog controller. We are reworking the control scheme to improve the sense of being in the game.”
Wada also touched on Ubisoft’s statement that they wouldn’t be publishing the game overseas.
“I think what Ubi announced was that it intends to focus on promoting No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. No More Heroes is currently our only HD title, but Ubi has a number of strong titles, so I don’t think it was a foregone conclusion. Thinking about the game’s vision, I would say that even though we have confidence in the game, I’ll leave it up to the end users to decide what they think the vision is.”
