Itagaki wants to know...does No More Heroes tire you out?

A portion of a Games interview with Tomonobu Itagaki…

Games.Net: What are your thoughts on the action genre thus far this generation? Have you played games like Heavenly Sword, Devil May Cry 4 or No More Heroes?

Itagaki: I played the demo for Heavenly Sword. One thing I thought it did well was showing the weight of the weapon and how the main character swung such a heavy weapon with a relatively light frame. You kinda felt the fragility of the main character as she tried to swing it. I thought it was really good animation.

However I think the overall sum of the all the game design parts left a little to be desired, so I’m looking forward to seeing a sequel in that franchise. I haven’t played no more heroes.

Games.Net: It’s the only game that I think has done sword fighting right on the Wii.

Itagaki: Is it tiring?

Games.Net: No, it only has you do finishing strikes.

Itagaki needs to play No More Heroes. It might inspire him with ideas for a Wii project!
