  • Here are all the easter eggs and references to other games, movies, suda51, etc. I could find in No More Heroes III. Some are obvious while others are a bit more obscure. If you know of any easter eggs I missed let me know in the comments.
    We have Gundam, Kamen Riders, The Smiths, Zelda, Star Fox, Rocky, Terminator, Takashi Miike, Smash Bros., Daemon X Machina, X-files, and a whole bunch more crammed into this new game.

    the way Travis climbs and backflips off the the trees i think is a reference to a similar animation from Mario 64 and subsequent 3-D mario games.

    So to explain why Smash is in NMH3:
    Apparently Nintendo originally approached SUDA51 about adding Travis to Smash, but SUDA51 opposed the idea and wanted to include Sumio Mondo from his game "Flower, Sun, and Rain" instead, after Nintendo insisted that they put Travis in Smash, SUDA51 decided to just put Smash in NMH.

    Kamui's changing appearance is due to the fact that he has a reincarnation ability, if I understand the silver case correctly.

    To answer the question of why Naomi is a tree, its because she's dead. She was already old in the last 2 games.
