Despite having few ultra-violent titles in its library (most notably Manhunt 2 and No More Heroes), the Wii can’t seem to shake its “kiddie” moniker. MadWorld producer Atsushi Inaba hopes to change that, telling play.tm, “it would be great if MadWorld can really kick off [a trend of mature titles].” He also opined that the console’s hardware capacity is not a problem so long as you can “correctly communicate the concept or features of the game.” Seeing as we are able to envision waggling the remote and producing lots of virtual blood, we think he might be onto something.

Inaba also said that they’re (gasp!) considering a sequel should the game be successful. If that’s not enough of a non-surprise for you, he reminds us that there will be mini-games — known here as Blood Bath Challenges. This is a Wii title, after all.
