Score one for Xbox owners, who’ll soon be able to roll up big balls of stuff to quirky Japanese tunes. It appears the upcoming Beautiful Katamari is now destined to be an Xbox 360 exclusive. The information comes from “a little birdie with good reason to know,” according the Level Up, Newsweek’s gaming blog. This marks a dramatic change for the series, considering all previous games have been exclusively on Sony systems. Apparently Namco is showing a pattern of trying to build closer ties with Microsoft. I guess the Xbox is on a roll (sorry, couldn’t resist).
this is still just in the rumors area, nothing confirmed
I dont even like Katamari, but if it will help the 360 in japan, then I am all for it
First week sales for Beautiful Katamari in Japan:
16,753
Xbox 360 sales for the week of release:
4,521
Methinks Beautiful Katamari may be appearing on other consoles in the near future.
