No More Heroes: More Violent Than Manhunt!

A violent game for the Wii? Tell me it ain't true!

For those of you who care but don't know, Nintendo has a reputation of being the "kiddie" console maker. It stays away from violent games in general. Remember Mortal Kombat? It was an arcade game that was later ported to the Sega Genesis and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System for home gaming. MK was notorious for its vast amounts of blood and gory finishing moves, which included ripping heads off and pulling out vital organs. When it was ported, Sega retained the blood while Nintendo opted for "green sweat", literally changing the color from red to green.

Fast forward to today and we now have the Wii, Nintendo's latest console. Game developer Suda 51's Wii title No More Heroes is going to be "as violent, or even more violent than Manhunt 2!"

I'll believe it when I see it. Also, note that violent games doesn't necessarily mean good games.
