Today, we bring you gloomy news: The compilation's 3DS and Wii U ports are no longer planned for release.

Pac-Man Museum was first announced (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/12/pac-man-museum-collection-coming-to-digital-platforms-includes/) last summer. At that time it was slated for release on Steam, Xbox Live, the PlayStation Network, and the Wii U and 3DS eShops. That story from yesterday only mentioned the Steam, Xbox Live and PSN iterations of Pac-Man Museum, prompting Nintendo Everything to contact publisher Namco Bandai. According to the site's report (http://nintendoeverything.com/pac-man-museum-cancelled-on-wii-u-3ds/), both the Wii U and 3DS versions of Pac-Man Museum have been cancelled "as a result of delayed development."

While this cancellation is depressing news for Nintendo devotees, those who have access to any of the platforms Pac-Man Museum will be appearing on should give the game a shot, if only for Pac-Man Battle Royale. Unless you frequent Japanese arcades, you probably won't have many other chances to experience the gleeful chaos that is four-player Pac-Man.
