Katamari Team Disbands

Gamasutra reports that the team behind Katamari Damacy, We *heart* Katamari, and My My Katamari has dissolved. The official Katamari site states that there are no plans for sequels to the hit rollin' games. From the article: "The official announcement does mention that 'Professor Katamari' (presumably Keita Takahashi) is currently working on a new game design, though apparently not with the core Katamari Damacy team. 'You don't roll things up, or get bigger, but you might find it interesting anyway,' says the site." Which is good news, considering his earlier comments about making playground equipment.

  1. PSP's superior 3D-fu by tepples · · Score: 0, Troll

    The game was so perfect for the DS, with it's touch control, and so not perfect for the PSP, with it's one analog nub.

    There's too much stuff to roll up to fit on a Nintendo DS. Do you think the DS's 3D hardware, with its limit of 2,000 triangles per scene, could have held up?
