Discontinued!!!

Does anyone know why Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm was discontinued on the ps3?
i looked for like 2 hrs now and the only thing remote that i think might have been the cause was that it looks like Namco has been canned and will no longer be making games.

Namco? No, no way.
Do you know who they own? Dig Dug, Pac Man, blah blah blah.
They would never.

HAHAHA duh. Dig Dug is my all time favorite arcade game! which is why its so hard that such a well known developer would be the reason that the game has been discontinued considering that it happened to be the only thing i saw. but im hopefully wrong wrong wrong.... :D

Updating my research,
ive gone to the official website, and the "news" section hasnt even been updated since the month after the game came out which is November of 08.
even the namco/bandai forums are empty of any evidence that the game has been discontinued at all.
maybe its a cover up?
or maybe its soon to become a launch title for the new rumored, PSP Go!.
i just dont see how sony would allow namco/bandai to release a game that gets a better than halfway decent rating and then just drops it off the face of the earth.
its very confusing!!!

but ill keep looking into this E.T happening!

Wait, so does this mean that the game was discontinued due to Namco just not wanting to get serious about video games?
if so thats lame. and thanks for your help man i feel kinda dumb cause i never check wikipedia cause its constantly changing and getting edited.

Na I've been to that page before. and even though it allows ordering, the game is still discontinued.
and all the news on that page stops a little after the game came out.
I'm guessing that Bandai is just trying to get rid of the excess copies of the game.

I'm actually thinking about buying it and keeping it put away.
it may be worth something one day to someone.
its already pretty tough to find even at gamestop.
i think ive seen maybe 4 traded in since it hit shelves, and believe me, i see hundreds of games traded in every single day.
