In No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle it has been 3 years since Travis earned the Number 1 spot in the United Assassins Association ranking, and investments from major corporations have caused the city of Santa Destroy to change... but is it really for the better? You are Travis Touchdown - a punk anti-hero , Japanese anime Otaku, beam katana master and pro wrestling-fanatic assassin. Revenge will bring you back to the UAA tournament. This time though, you begin at the bottom of the ranking and will have to fight your way up to save Santa Destroy and avenge your best friend.

Problems

Crash on Exit

Exiting the game crashes Dolphin on r5460.

Slow Motion With Light Saber

The game can be very slow in many parts of the game, mostly when there are many lights in the scene on r5549.

Such can be solved via a speed hack shown on the forums.

Cutscenes

In several cutscenes, the audio may be out of sync with the video on r5549
