Main character Travis Touchdown in No More Heroes 2. The sequel has only been announced for Wii.

Marvelous said earlier this year that it was looking into releasing PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of some of its Wii properties. It looks like No More Heroes will be the first title to see the HD remake treatment.

This week's Famitsu reveals No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise, a PS3 and Xbox 360 remake of the original 2007 No More Heroes title. In addition to updated visuals, the remake includes Japanese language voiceovers, selectable alongside the the English voiceovers of the original.

HD gamers also have a new unlockable mode to look forward to. Known as "Very Sweet Mode, this mode changes all the female characters' costumes into sexy form -- skimpy bathing suits, cheerleader outfits, and so-forth. The girls appear in this form during both gameplay and non gameplay sequences.

The game will also see control changes -- expected since there's no more Wiimote. While not providing specifics, Famitsu says to expect a better feel of action. Details will be shared in a future update.

This HD remake of No More Heroes will arrive on February 25, priced at ¥5,800 -- a couple of thousand yen lower than most high profile third party titles.

Marvelous will be including an "Erotica Portrait" bonus item for those who pre-order. This collection of sexy portraits will differ depending on your platform. PS3 owners will get "Sexy Cherry" flavor. Xbox 360 buyers will get "Sweet Mango" flavor.

  • And once again when I consider getting a Wii, someone throws a curve ball like this that makes me reconsider. This was one of the few major games I really wanted for Wii, but now it seems like I won't need one to play it.

  • Great news this is a wii game I wanted!

  • Awesome, and surprising, news! I was actually expecting NMH2 to get the multi console treatment first. Cool to see they're starting with the original. NMH is a great game, I love it so much I just might grab both HD versions. Will it be "censored" this time around? The ridiculous amounts of blood made it even more wacky and fun.
