japan says no to no more heroes

So wait, people rip on Nintendo for about a [idecade[/i] for not having "mature" games, and then they finally get that kind of violent, "mature" game and nobody buys it?

Gamers are a silly bunch.

I think it looks fun.

Hmm, I don't think it's that. This game was really not marketed well. I hadn't even really heard anything about it until I saw an ad on Penny Arcade a few days ago.

And the GC Resident Evil games sold pretty well within the past decade. The games are being bought, if they're good and people know about them.

I haven't player Killer7, but God Hand is a great game. It received almost no press, and it's a little off-putting because of the difficulty, but I thought it was a great throwback to old school beat-'em-ups.

I was thinking about getting No More Heroes, but I wound up selling my Wii before then.
