Rugby League 3 delayed

Wii News | Looks like nobody is scoring this year.
Rugby league fans will be aghast to learn that Rugby League 3, set to be released on the Wii by the end of this year, has been delayed until March 2010. Rugby League 3 will now be released on 11 March 2010 to coincide with the launch of the 2010 NRL season, missing both the opportunity to tie in with the now-concluded Four Nations, and the benefit of Christmas sales.

On the bright side though there will be a pre-order offer that includes a Madcatz Gamecube controller, which will bring relief to those less fond of Wii remote waggling.

No specific reason has been given for the delay.

I might just die right now. No Rugby League 3 for me to play? But however will I spend my bogan league supporting hours otherwise? I can only look at my Andrew Johns poster, get hammered on Tooheys New and sigh softly as another of my favourite players is embroiled in scandal so many times...

Because we all know AFL players are never in the headlines for the wrong reasons. icon_rolleyes.gif

I'm still cranky that this isn't on 360/PS3, it's probably just a rehash/slight upgrade of the World Cup edition on PS2 so I'm probably not going to miss much.

QBert - The game is definately a fully fledge sequal. From all the details, all the issues with Rugby League 2 have been addressed.
