Following Mafia being shown only for Xbox and PlayStation 2 at last month’s E3, rumour was rife that there would be no Nintendo version of Gathering’s violent mobster action game.

Overnight, Take 2 confirmed this is the case, stating that only the Sony and Microsoft remakes of the best-selling PC game would be available.

Shipping on both PlayStation 2 and Xbox in Fall 2003, “Mafia has been enhanced to deliver a console experience that will make the Cosa Nostra look like a bunch of choirboys," said Graeme Struthers, Vice President of Gathering. "Mafia recreates the heyday of the mob in stunning detail and puts the gamer right in the heart of the action."

Oh well, some you win, some you lose…
