No More Heroes Xbox 360 & PS3 port faces obstacles in America

Yesterday we reported that the sublime niche experience that is No more Heroes was being ported over to both of this generations high definition consoles and being given a graphical make over. Unfortunately things are not running as smoothly as Grasshopper Manufacture had hoped as Ubisoft have stated that they will not be publishing the game in the States despite being the publisher behind the original game and its sequel (released in January 2010), which are both Wii exclusives. Nothing was mentioned regarding the European version nor was any reason given for Ubisoft’s reluctance to publish the game, hopefully we will hear something soon. This news came as quite a surprise, so soon after the original announcement had made those who had not experienced the original jump for joy. The bottom line is that if the game is to hit American (or European) shores Grasshopper Manufacture will have to attract the attention of another publisher. Come on people, someone please publish this gem of a game!
