With six weeks to go till the game’s release, the TV advert for No More Heroes: Eiyuutachi no Rakuen (which should probably be translated as No More Heroes: Heroes’ Paradise, but may end up as something slightly different) is scheduled to begin airing on Japanese telly this Saturday. You can see the whole thing in all its glory up there.
The observant among you will notice that at the 0:11 mark there’s a quick flash of info attempting to persuade punters to reserve their copy in advance, the reward for doing so being an “Erotica Portrait”. PS3 players get the “Sexy Cherry” flavour, while 360 players have the clearly euphemistic “Sweet Mango” to look forward to. Good old Suda’s up to his usual tricks!
