E.g. Conker's Other Bad Fur Day, Donkey Kong Racing, Epic Mickey III to name a few.
For Epic Mickey, on January 29th 2013, it was announced that Junction Point Studios (the makers of the Epic Mickey series) was being closed. Plus, Epic Mickey 2 didn't sell all too well, so even if Junction Point Studio wasn't closed, It still probably wouldn't get a sequel.
For DK Racing, about the time the game was being made (2002), Rare was bought by Microsoft. Microsoft also canceled some games that Rare was working on to focus on Xbox.
Conker's Other Bad Fur Day, although I couldn't find anything solid on it, It was originally rumored in 2002, and 6 years later the game was canceled. It was probably canceled like Ura Zelda, a lack of motivation.
I would only want Conker's Other Bad Day and DK Racing. Never played Epic Mickey, But I'll hopefully be getting it soon.
Time for GM's USELESS KNOWLEDGEe-cookie for anyone who get the reference
Though you are correct about DK Racing, it was not scraped competently after the Microsoft Buy-out. The game's engine was moved to another game entitled Sabreman Stampede. The game was being ported over to the X-box and possably the 360, up until the people on the Sabreman team were put onto the Kameo Team and the game was canceled.
SOOOO yea. That happened and we did not get two game we (kinda) wanted. But at lest we got Kameo, Right!? ...... Right?
I liked the game.
