The Japanese release of the game included a manga with the instruction manual titled United Assassins Association Official Manual that contained much of the backstory about the UAA and Touchdown's first kill. After being informed that he has now made himself a target for aspiring assassins, Touchdown sets out to secure himself the coveted position of number one assassin in the UAA. Doing so earns him rank 11 by the United Assassins Association, a body of assassins with a significantly shady background. Having run out of money to buy video games and wrestling videos after winning a beam katana in an Internet auction, Touchdown accepts an offer to kill the drifting assassin Helter-Skelter. The story follows Travis Touchdown, who is a stereotypical otaku – his motel room decorated with professional wrestling and anime collectibles – living in near poverty in the Motel "NO MORE HEROES" of Santa Destroy, California. Travis has a secondary mode, " Dark Side Mode", that is accessed when three icons line up in a slot machine after a successful death blow. In addition to attacks with the beam katana Travis can kick and punch, and when enemies are stunned he can throw them with a number of professional wrestling maneuvers, done by manipulating both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. While the katana does not follow the exact position of the remote, it is able to distinguish between a "high" and "low" position which varies the character stance and the attacks performed. The beam katana can also be upgraded and replaced throughout the game. Further, since the beam katanas run on batteries (until late in the game, when an expensive " Energy Saving Part" has been obtained), they must be charged from time to time by pressing the 1 Button and shaking the Wii Remote. Most attacks are performed using the A Button, with certain other moves, including the " Death Blow" and sword lock struggles, executed by following on-screen instructions. There are numerous part time job side quests to earn money which can be spent on weapons, training sessions, clothes and video tapes.Ĭontrol is handled through the Wii Remote and Nunchuk attachment, with the Remote controlling Travis' weapon, the beam katana, and the Nunchuk moving him.
