The Earthquake Maker is a fictional weapon in the 2007 video game No More Heroes. It is a gigantic machine with a silo-like appearance. It was previously a war weapon owned by the LB. Army and contains the brain of its inventor, Dr. Shake. As the Earthquake Maker prepares to launch a devastating seismic blast dubbed by its user, the "Disaster Blaster," the automated voice of Dr. Shake calculates aloud the cycle ratio of the attack, which can apparently reach as high as 140%.
