The original prototype

Recent info in regards to Katamari Damacy has surfaced and turns out that the original prototype of the game was actually developed on the GameCube: https://nintendoeverything.com/katamari-damacys-prototype-was-initially-made-on-the-gamecube/ Do The Math (talk) 23:00, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
