Gungho Online Entertainment acquires Grasshopper Manufacturer
January 30th, 2013 Posted in General Gaming, General Nintendo, News, Podcast Stories, Posted by AustinEveryone’s favorite (and only!) No More Heroes developer Grasshopper Manufacturer has been purchased by Ragnorak Online publisher “Gungho Online Entertainment”, but how this affects Suda51 and his team’s development process remains to be seen. Word on the street is that the developer will be operating as normal, and has teamed up purely to give them more resources to realize their vision.
“By joining GungHo Online Entertainment, we are aligning ourselves with a strong, established publishing force that will support our vision to further create inspired new games that appeal players across the world. The Grasshopper team and I have many new ideas to share with our fans as we move forward so this union with GOE will help us realize our future plans.” – Grasshopper Manufacturer Founder Goichi Suda

Whats happening to game studious these days? They either go bankrupt/defunct or someone else buys them. Its a real shame… i hope the move to Gungho doesn’t mean a change in grasshopper’s games
