Gauntlet DS (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/04/07/eidos-shoots-the-food-confirms-gauntlet-for-ds/) has been removed or changed to a nebulous status on several retail sites. GoNintendo (http://gonintendo.com/?p=71387) took notice that the title was removed from GameStop; allegedly, Amazon told customers that the game had been "canceled." Furthermore, Eidos no longer makes any mention of the title on its site.
A source familiar with the development of the title has confirmed to Joystiq that Gauntlet DS has indeed been scrapped; however, we've contacted both Eidos and developer Backbone Entertainment to learn what has (or hasn't) befallen the DS dungeon crawler. We'll update as soon as we hear something official.
