Grasshopper Manufacture's violent, stylish, nerdy free-roaming action game No More Heroes finally has at least one release date. It'll come out in Japan on December 6. That doesn't help the rest of us directly, but any forward progress in getting this game out the door is a good thing. Since the voice work for the game is already in English, localization shouldn't take a terribly long time, leaving only one major obstacle to a U.S. release. Unfortunately, that obstacle is finding a publisher.
Check after the break for another bite-size No More Heroes video-- they usually go up on Friday, but we suppose Grasshopper wanted to get one online before TGS.

I suppose this title will be import friendly, then, right? There won't be any terrible kanji menus and the like? yes?

Except for the whole "only running on Japanese Wiis" thing.

I thought it was widely acknowledged that Capcom would be doing the NA publishing for this?
Or is that just something people assumed after they published Killer 7?
Either way, a Q1/2 2008 would be a good date for all concerned in this region

IGN just confirmed that Ubisoft would be bringing it over here in February.
