Surprise! No More Heroes 1 and 2 are on Switch now. $19.99 each with a launch discount. - and remember "MY SPLEEN!"

Why not just cut the goat off at the legs then and just buy the LP instead of the game?

I wasn't arguing that the games were overall fantastic you pedant. Your original post was "no part of these games have held up" and my response was "I disagree, this aspect of the games continue to be recognized as excellent" which you couldn't even be bothered to properly respond to because you shifted the argument to it being about gameplay only.

Jesus fucking Christ, did Suda51 make you watch while he dry-humped your mom or something?
 
No More Heroes is just Scott Pilgrim for people who aren't faggots:

  • Protagonist is a colossal nerd, but Travis is modeled after Johnny Knoxville while Scott was played by Michael Cera
  • Travis bought a lightsaber on eBay and decided to climb the United Assassin's Association so he could become #1 to fuel his own ego
  • Scott's entirely motivated by a girl and roped into beating up her long line of ex boyfriends; Travis is led around by a girl, too, but she's not the main motivation
  • NMH had a terrific ensemble cast of assassins while SP was just a bunch of highschool tropes, making Ramona out to be something of a slut
  • Scott doesn't even kill a single person while Travis has a bodycount on par with dictators of banana republics
  • Travis has a cat while Scott has a gay roommate
  • Scott would be the kind of person to get a thread here, and Travis would be the kind of person to write Scott's thread
  • I want a leather jacket just like Travis'
  • Travis is regular because he takes good care of his bowels and you never see Scott pooping so Scott is probably not as healthy as Travis
 
Ports will have to do until the 2021 (!!!!) release, assuming Nintendo has done something with them that I couldn't just do on my own emulator settings.

They're Suda 51 games, you either know what that means and are already sold, or you don't and think "ew, janky weeb game." I don't even recommend his games anymore, if you're the type of person that will enjoy them you'll find them on your own.
"Taste my big boner" was the only worthwhile thing Suda 51 ever did. The gameplay is almost always mediocre and the scenarios are obtuse.

Which to some people equates to a sodeep/10. I do have complete respect for the team making Suda's vision as he sees it. That is always praiseworthy. But as video games I have to pause when the gameplay and controls are bad.

I wouldn't call any of his games "deep," with the exception of maybe Silver Case. There's honestly nothing obtuse about them, they're extremely straight forward and juvenile and that's basically the appeal. The reason I can't recommend these games is because most people these days are complete faggots. They want to play a "deep" game with secret messages and THEMES, so they can wank off over it later on reddit and impress everyone with their big analysis brain. When these people encounter something out of Grasshopper, they note the weirdness and think "Oh man, here come the themes, unf, META, unf unf, I'm gonna GAME THEEEEEORY!!" only to end up frustrated that there is actually very little going on beneath the surface. That luchador that you keep running into isn't a metaphor for the main character's secret homo thoughts, it's literally just a luchador and also he's cool. The "gigolo minigame" isn't an elaborate criticism of the male gaze, its a minigame where you give girls gifts and then peek at their tits and nothing more.

I agree the controls in the NMH series are jank due to being designed originally with waggle bullshit, but otherwise I've found every Suda 51 game responsive and very entertaining.

No you see the game with the hot cheerleader girl with a chainsaw in a school full of zombies represents adkjfgdsaljhgdfjsghfdkljshdfsilksdasd

Looking through the Lollipop Chainsaw wiki was painful as fuck, you could see some parallels yeah but they really think the entire game is just Deepest Lore Romeo and Juliet and not Suda51 back on crack.
All I wanted to do was get some concept art pics of Mariska...

I'd imagine Suda51's entire motivation for developing Lollipop Chainsaw was just to get girls to cosplay as the protagonist for a while
 
I enjoy it so far. Just beat the prologue. Charging the sword is kind of annoying though. I assume it's like that in the sequel.
Minor gripe but some bios would make it interesting.
RAD deserves some kind of award for his performance. You'd think his native Britain would recognize his talent. And this is coming from someone who first heard him as Cyclops and as Origin.

Post your favorite songs from either game, NOW.
For me it's Murder! Killer! Nathan! Nathan!

 
How do the ports handle? A friend of mine thought there was some input delay while fighting Shinobu, but I just assumed they'd forgotten what the game actually felt like.
 
Do you still do ridiculous arm movements when using the wrestling finishers? That was such a dumb feature but I still had fun with it. I was one of those nerds who played most wii games standing up.
 
Surprise! No More Heroes 1 & 2 are on Steam now. Reviews are saying it's a zero-effort port of the Switch version, hardly any options are in the settings menus and it carries over bugs and mistakes that have gone unpatched on Switch. Apparently you even need an Xbox controller to play it, somehow, like there's just no keyboard/mouse support at all, nor does it support Nintendo, Steam, or Sony controllers. I didn't think that'd be an issue anymore, yet here we are.

lol bad port dont buy it

That's the typical Japanese console to PC port for you.
