The official Katamari web site was pulled down yesterday, replaced with a message that the Katamari team is moving on to other things. It also mentions that "Doctor Katamari", most likely series producer Keita Takahashi, is working on a new non-Katamari title, but has little else in the way of specifics.

Unfortunately, the fantastic content (including wallpapers, screensavers, and paper dolls) has all been taken down. What I would give for a site dump!

Takahashi had been vocal in the past about his disinterest in creating more Katamari games. With next week's Me And My Katamari shipping for PSP, it looks like the series may have come to an end. Rest in peace, Prince of Cosmos...
