This comes from the same IGN interview that we posted about earlier today…
“Oh man. I love IGN, so I really want to give you something here… It’s an action/horror game, and it’ll be very scary… And I guess I can also tell you that the main character has a very cool watch.” – Suda51
Suda51: Expect more bosses in Desperate Struggle than the first, around 10 2D jobs

In a recent interview with IGN’s Mark Bozon, game developer and creator of No More Heroes Goichi Suda revealed a few new details on the upcoming No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle, including details on the new 2D minigames that will be replacing the odd jobs in the first game.
“You’ll see around 10 2D mini-games in No More Heroes 2, and they’ll all be done in the retro 2D, 8-bit style. I thought that’d be a fun way to re-imagine them. If you want to play them though so far you need to actually go to the areas in the story mode, and I’m not sure yet if I’ll include them as any separate challenge mode. So far they’re contained only in the story mode.” – Suda51
Also in the interview he talked briefly about the new bosses in the game, including details regarding Nathan Capran.
“Well for now I have to keep it to only a few bosses. Definitely you should expect more bosses than in No More Heroes one though. At PAX we had a demo where you were fighting Nathan Capran, and what I can tell you is a little info about his origin. Originally he was created during No More Heroes, and I was thinking about him as a potential boss, but there wasn’t really room to fit him into the story, so we decided to hold off. But I still wanted to see how he’d fit into the No More Heroes world, so once the sequel was decided on I absolutely wanted to get him into the game. That’s how we got the boss everyone saw at PAX, and unfortunately I’ll have to hold off on other talks at this time.” – Suda51

Apparently pretty high, as the game has been featured in the Scholastic Book of World Records for best selling video game. Just another title to add to the Wii’s every growing list of records…
