Is No More Heroes Worth Money? Wii, PS3 and Switch Copies Compared
The Wii original is cheap. A few other copies are not.
The original No More Heroes on Wii is not worth much: about £7 used for a UK/PAL copy and £12 for an American one. The copies worth money are the PS3 version, Heroes' Paradise, and the Switch special editions, which sell for roughly £40 to £180 depending on the version and region.
No More Heroes is back in the news: Push Square reported on 2 November 2026 that Travis Touchdown "will definitely be back" for the series' 20th anniversary. That is a good moment to ask what the games are actually worth. The answer depends far more on which copy you have than on the game itself.

Why the Wii original is cheap
The first No More Heroes sold well on the Wii, and it still trades often: the American Wii copy is the most often sold No More Heroes version in the price guide. Plenty of copies plus later ways to play it, on PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Switch, keep the price low. A used UK/PAL copy is worth about £7, and even a new one is only around £34.
The sequel is similar. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle on Wii is about £16 used in America and £21 in the UK.
Heroes' Paradise: the one that moved
Heroes' Paradise is the first game's later release, with extras added. In the UK and US it is PlayStation 3 only. Japan also got an Xbox 360 version, which is the cheapest Heroes' Paradise at about £26 used and £47 new, though only a few sales are recorded. The PS3 copies are the ones that have climbed. Since our records for it began on 20 May 2026, a new American PS3 copy has gone from about £38 to £83, more than double, and a used one from £30 to £42. The UK/PAL copy is dearer still: about £63 used and £95 new.
Interestingly, the market has moved faster than the scores. MyPlayersVault analysed all three on 2 November 2026: both PS3 copies have a Vault Score of 48 and the Japanese Xbox 360 copy 59, all HIGH-ALPHA, with collector demand still marked as niche. A rising price with a middling score usually means interest is growing before it is fully established, so it is worth watching rather than assuming it will keep going. You can follow it on the No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise price history page.
Switch: the standard game and the special editions
Here is the twist. The American Switch release of the first game is worth more than the Wii original: about £38 used and £42 new. So the newer copy is not always the cheaper one.
The special editions are where the real money is. The No More Heroes Collector's Edition for Switch is about £61 used and £92 new, up from around £62 new since May. The UK/PAL No More Heroes III Collector's Edition is the most valuable No More Heroes item in the price guide that sells regularly, at about £153 used and £178 new. Both sell less often than the standard games, so a single sale can move their price.

What about Japanese copies?
A new Japanese Wii copy of No More Heroes is listed at about £182, around five times the UK and American new price. Used Japanese copies are cheap, though, at about £15, and very few sales are recorded, so treat that new price with care. Our guide to how region affects value explains why the same game can be priced so differently around the world.
So, is your copy worth money?
- Wii original, used: no, it is worth a few pounds in the UK.
- Wii original, new: a little, around £34 to £37.
- Heroes' Paradise on PS3: yes, especially new, and it has been rising.
- Switch Collector's Editions and bundles: yes, from about £60 to £180.
The gap between a new and a used copy matters a lot here. Our guide to new vs used explains why it can be so big.
Before you buy or sell
- Check the region and the platform. Wii, PS3 and Switch copies of the same game are worth very different amounts.
- Check it's complete. These prices are for complete in box copies. For Collector's Editions, that means every item that came in the box.
- Check the live price. Prices move, especially for versions that sell rarely. Check what your copy of No More Heroes is worth on MyPlayersVault, or see this week's price risers.
