Chocobo Racing 3D was one of the first games announced for the 3DS. It was revealed at E3 2010 and shown briefly later on, but then kind of just disappeared.

It should come as no surprise that Chocobo Racing 3D has been cancelled. Although that had been widely assumed, Square Enix’s Takashi Tokita – creator of the original Chocobo Racing – officially confirmed to Siliconera that the game is no more.

“The original Chocobo Racing was made by me. But the one for the 3DS was a project being handled by someone else, and as far as I know, it has been closed. Now, if I had made it, I would have made sure that it came out. Unfortunately I was not!”

For a few months now, retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop have listed pricing for Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director’s Cut at $49.99 on Wii U and $29.99 on the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360. As it turns out, this is final.

Square Enix had been previously hesitant to officially reveal the game’s cost, but nothing has changed since retailers put up their original listings. We’ve confirmed with the publisher that the Wii U version will indeed set you back $50, but only $30 on other consoles.

Why the difference in pricing? Other than the fact that Deus Ex: Human Revolution has landed on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 previously, I can’t really think of anything. The experience will be more or less the same across all platforms.
