In the 45th issue of the Official Nintendo Magazine, creative director of Red Steel 2 Jason Vandenberghe spoke about his latest project. In the interview, Vandenberghe made some audacious statements, including a claim that the game is “one of the best looking games on the Wii.”
“We’ve come a long way in terms of getting the core gameplay working. The first person brawler stuff, that’s really working for me. It’s awesome. We’ve got a lot of polish on the visuals and cool lighting. It’s one of the best looking games on the Wii. The game is so much fun with the Wii MotionPlus peripheral. I hope it gives gamers something really cool to do with their Wii. It’s a really cool game for core gamers.”

“…And I want him to be a huge star, so that’s why I’m working very hard to make this game as interesting as possible. Maybe in the future, we can see him fighting alongside Link in the next Smash Bros. [Laughs] That would be great.”
Travis came around way to late to fit into Super Smash Bros. Brawl. But I could definitely picture him in the next Smash Bros. game. How many of you would be interested in seeing that?

“I like a lot of my other characters, too, but Travis is my favorite. He has a special place in my heart. He’s a good friend of mine and I really wanted to work with him again. I will stay with him until he dies…”
I know Travis has gained a lot of supporters through the first No More Heroes game. He’s definitely not your typical video game character. I was glad when Desperate Struggle was revealed and I hope Suda51 continue to create games with Travis!
