"Various circumstances." Right. They saw how much more money they'd lose by completing and publishing the damn thing so they pulled out. Not a bad move.

It'd be funny if the Rail Wars PS Vita game comes out, but it's just a sprite-swapped version of the Thomas the Tank Engine Sega Genesis game.

I guess it's typical that a game company will that a game is delayed and not tell why.

If they had put a delay to date on it then you could read the announcement as " The pre-orders are not quite enough yet to commit to manufacturing. " Since they didn't set a date I think it is more like " We need some pre-orders or this won't happen. "

If the game is done, but pre-orders are low, they could've just made it a PSN-exclusive to recoup at least some of their investment.

They seen how crap and boring this series is and how low the preorders were and bailed, they should've put the game on PC and added sex scenes.

Both bad and good news this.

Bad since I was really looking forward to it, got the CE pre-ordered and was going to get a Vita along with it.

Good news means I have more money in November to spend on more Rail Wars! merch.

I can only imagine how interesting an Aoi/Naoto sex scene would be like if they added to that LNs.
