UK Game store won't sell Ubisoft Vita titles at launch

European retailer Game won't sell any Ubisoft Vita launch titles tonight during the midnight launch of the Vita, even though it is stocking titles from all other major publishers, including EA, Namco Bandai, Capcom, Codemasters and Sega. Game said it will not stock Lumines Electronic Symphony, Michael Jackson: The Experience, Rayman Origins, Asphalt Injection or Dungeon Hunter Alliance, according to a statement picked up by VG24/7.

Neither Game nor Ubisoft provided a specific reason for the shaft. Recently, Game has hit financial trouble and has closed numerous stores, laid off 46 employees from its corporate offices and is looking to sell its international arm.
