“Until the end of this year, I have my hands full with Metal Gear Online, but at next year’s show, I think it’s okay that I should be able to announce something.” – Hideo Kojima
That’s…So far away! Anyone want to guess what he might be able to present next year?

“I would like to use Wii MotionPlus for No More Heroes 2 if I could…I haven’t even touched Wii MotionPlus yet so I am not aware with how it works so that’s why I am not sure yet.” – Suda51
Wii MotionPlus might make the No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle pretty interesting. However, if Suda51 uses it, it would be best to make sure it’s not just a gimmick or a tack-on.
