Like with Killer 7, Grasshopper Manufacture CEO Goichi Suda--known as Suda 51--is the director on No More Heroes, which isn't a sequel but brings the former psycho rails shooter's stylized aesthetic to the Wii title. As hardcore otaku Travis Touchdown, players will explore the open-world environment of fictional city Santa Destroy, California, and use the Wii remote to to become the world's deadliest assassin by dismembering competition.

"No More Heroes is unique in its gameplay--allowing players to combine cool weapons with advanced wrestling moves in their quest to become the world's number one assassin," Suda said. "We've already seen a great deal of anticipation and enthusiasm surrounding No More Heroes and when the Wii owners get their hands on this game in February, they won't be disappointed."

Grasshopper is also currently working on Nintendo DS ports of Suda 51 and Grasshopper's first game, an adventure title called The Silver Case, and the game's sequel--both confirmed for a worldwide release. Suda 51 has also confirmed work on two secret titles for the Wii, as well as a collaboration with Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima on a platform-ambiguous game only known as Project S.

Grasshopper and Suda 51's last U.S. release was 2006's Atlus-published adventure title Contact (NDS).
