Radio Allergy was to be the GameCube's last game, but it kept missing its proposed release dates in February, and later April. Speculation that the game was cancelled is now confirmed. A representative of publisher O~3 Entertainment sent an e-mail to press today notifying them that the game will not be published by O~3 in North America. The e-mail cites video game retailer's lack of interest in GameCube games now that a new generation of consoles and software is available. According to the e-mail, developer Milestone is pursuing the possibility of releasing the game on Wii as part of a compilation and without the help of O~3; this would make Radio Allergy yet another port from late-gen to next-gen.

Well, if Milestone's trying to make a compilation, I guess we'll get Karous, Radio Allergy, and perhaps Chaos Field all on one disc. That would be nice, but it does suck for O3.

Ratatouille because it's a children's movie tie-in and the Wii isn't sufficiently entrenched in terms of the sales base for it to have supplanted the GameCube. Same reason they're doing a PS2 version.
Can't speak for Madden, though; that makes no sense to me.

Don't forget about Naruto: Clash of Ninja 3 and 4. I read in an earlier article right in Nintendo World Report that Naruto: Ninja Council 3 is only the first of three Naruto games to be released in 2007 for Nintendo gaming systems, another being what is now called Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution (formerly called Naruto: Clash of Ninja MVZ) for the Wii. Guess what the third one might be; I can't see it as anything else besides an English port of Naruto: Gekitou Ninja Tasien 3.

I just hope the compilation is more than Radio Allergy and Chaos Field.
