SpaceWorld cancelled?

Rumour is rife that Nintendo has cancelled SpaceWorld, its annual games showcase.

Although the rumours are unsubstantiated at this point in time, they seem to spring from the fact that Nintendo still hasn’t booked the Makuhari Messe convention centre for the event.

Also fuelling rumour is that fact that Sega has decided to unveil its new Sonic game at this year’s Tokyo Toy Fair rather than SpaceWorld. Of course, this new Sonic game, whatever it is, is rumoured to be an Xbox exclusive, so that might explain things.

Whatever happens, we’ll let you know.
