I sure wasn’t expecting any delisted news to come out of E3, especially not the return of one of our most often-lamented losses: the 1989 arcade brawler Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Of course, it isn’t coming back in the most affordable package ever but later this year you will technically and legally be able to

Naughty Dog’s PlayStation 3 Multiplayer modes ending September 3rd
Online multiplayer in Uncharted 2 has been such a long-supported feature that I — even being the one running this very site — honestly forgot that it would ever have to end! But as with all things digital, time won’t last forever and the day has come for Naughty Dog to announce the end of
Tetris Online shutdown sees several web-based titles delisted
Like clearing 4 lines in one drop, a whole lot of Tetris has disappeared from the web. Tetris Online Inc., the online licensee of the Tetris brand across the Western world, shut down on June 1st after thirteen years in operation. The company was founded by some heavy hitters including Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov, Tetris
Delisted 2009 Ghostbusters game returns in 2019 Remaster
There’s something strange in our neighborhood with the surprise announcement today of Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered. The 2009 title starring the original motion picture cast was delisted from Steam in 2017 but this news doesn’t mean that its resurrection is at hand. While the initial announcement was made on the PlayStation Blog by Saber
Japanese Indie title Croixleur Sigma leaves Steam on June 1st
Nyu Media, purveyors of Japanese indie PC titles, announced a sad but fond farewell to one of their releases today. The “high speed hack-and-slash action game” Croixleur Sigma will be removed from Steam (as well as sites like Humble Bundle, Gamersgate, and Rice Digital) on June 1st. Why? Nyu’s license to the game has ended
DC Universe Online coming to Switch, delisting dread averted!
I couldn’t help but wonder how much longer Daybreak Game Company might last after the past few years of delistings and server shutdowns. We lost PlanetSide and Legends of Norrath in 2016, Landmark in 2017, and Just Survive last October. Knowing nothing else about the company’s financials or player base, it looked like things might

Razer shuting down Ouya, Forge TV, MOJO services on June 25th
In a rather unceremonious fashion Razer, who acquired Ouya’s staff and library of titles in 2015, has confirmed that online services and storefronts for the Ouya, as well as the Android-based Forge TV and the MadCatz MOJO will be shut down on June 25th, 2019.

Another Telltale Games title joins the site this week in the aftermath of the company’s 2018 closure.

The post cites expired licensing from Minecraft
DSiWare on 3DS primed for 450+ Delistings?
Something wicked this way comes. Or so it seems as Nintendo has been removing hundreds of store pages from nintendo.com for DSiWare games, including their older news posts about them. Based on my own research and a submission from site reader Alex, the pages started disappearing in late March. It’s a real shame as these
Original Burnout Paradise multiplayer ends on August 1st
Criterion Games took to Twitter on April 17th to announce that multiplayer servers for the original 2008 versions of Burnout Paradise would be shut down on August 1st, 2019.

The 4-vs-1 multiplayer action/RPG, Breach, initially seemed like an up-and-coming contender when it debuted on Steam Early Access back in January. But just over two months later, QC Games has announced plans to shut down the servers at the end of April. Popularity and profits are to blame according to QC Games CEO, Dallas Dickinson,
