Rumor: No More Heroes release pushed up in NA?

No More Heroes is shaping up to be one of the most exciting titles hitting the Wii next year.  Created by Killer 7 mastermind, Suda 51, the title blends humour, an interesting visual style, and a lot of bloody action together.  It’s really turning heads.

But while previously announced to come out around the second week of February, we were all excited and concerned.  Why?  Well, what else is coming out in February?  Well, I don’t know… maybe a game called Smash Brothers Brawl?!  Plenty of people have tried to get it through publisher Ubisoft’s head that releasing this game so close to such a hotly anticipated title is going to leave this game slaughtered at retailers.  Especially considering how poorly this game did in Japan.

Well while this is still just a rumor, it seems Ubisoft may have noticed something was wrong with the game’s release in the Americas.  Numerous online retailers have bumped the game’s release date up to as early as January 22nd.  Ubisoft has yet to make an official statement regarding whether this release date is in fact real or not.  But we certainly hope it is.  Considering all the hands-on impressions from people who’ve tried the title out, it certainly sounds like one solid action title.  It would be a shame to see this game ignored, even if it is next to Brawl.  We’ll keep you updated if this is in fact real or not.
