Sounds like what happened with Tales of Symphonia. It was eventually released for PS2 in Japan. Although, in the case of ToS, it was SCEA that prevented its US release. I wonder if this is a repeat of that or a decision by Namco.

The PS2 version of ToS was made because the GC version didn't sell as well as expected in Japan(sold 300K, was expected to sell 500K).  The sales of the PS2 version surpassed the sales of the Japanese GC version with over 400K sold.
