Iwata canned GoldenEye XBLA, says UK mag

Scans of the GoldenEye XBLA article from UK mag Xbox World 360 are now available, showing some new screens and apparently blaming Nintendo president Satoru Iwata for the fact the game’s never going to release.

Iwata reportedly said he didn’t want it appearing on any other console under any circumstances, although NOA’s Reggie Fils-Aime was on board with the project. Sounds as though they didn’t get very far, anyway – only the dam level was ever completed.

Take a look at the pages.

A lucky escape for rose-tinted XBLAers!

Couldn’t they work it so that it comes to both XBLA and Wii VC?
