Let's see how much it will sell...

No news on how it will reach NA yet. And yes Ubisoft is still publishing NMH 2 for the Wii. (via destructoid.com) |
I'd bet 2 to 1 that they're doing it themselves somehow.
They wouldn't of bothered with the remake if they didn't have a NA release plan... unless they're idiots or something.

They probably didn't anticipate Ubisoft making this move, however Ubisoft is not the publisher in Japan.
i like the wii version better, form those comparisons. sure the hd one looks hell of a lot sharper, but the Wii sort of reminds me of Okami for the PS2, with the paper filter thing going on.

I would think you would ask before you went to the effort of redoing the textures.
America counts for 46% of No More Heroes sales.

xseed almost go the rights to NMH2 before Ubisoft decided they wanted it, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were publishing this one. I just hope both versions get the gore and they don't decide to do some sort of lame "one version is censored and one is not" type of thing.
man definitely getting this. this game was high on my wii jelousy list. i hope it sells well so the port over the second and future nmh titles

It just me or is this post ironic? Wasn't not having enough copies one of the excuses as to why it didn't sell well.
Soriku said:
Except it did sell well. Personally I always tend to find it in game stores unlike some other games. The reason it didn't sell more was it's not a very mainstream game and it got a lack of marketing. |
Well will always be subjective, but that's not the topic at hand.
Intially, I remember people saying that Ubisoft did not send out enough copies and that no one could find the game. (I know Blockbuster never got it in and I still don't think they have it)
