Retail Radar: Lego Star Wars for Wii and PS3

CD Universe now accepting preorders for Complete Saga; Xbox 360 and DS versions also listed.

With Lego Star Wars and its sequel already having tackled toy-themed games of the original Star Wars trilogy and its prequel films, there's nothing left for the franchise to do but move on, applying the same to other popular property. Take Batman, for instance.

But as the wizened Muppet Jedi master Yoda might say, "No. There is another." At least, there might be another, if new product listings on CD Universe are accurate. The retail Web site has listings up for Lego Star Wars: Complete Saga on four platforms: PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360, and Nintendo DS, each with an expected November 8 release date. The same four listings have also turned up in Wal-Mart's internal database of product codes.

Judging from the name, it doesn't take a huge leap of logic to suggest these are compilation titles that include both the original Lego Star Wars as well as last year's Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. However, of the four systems listed, only the Xbox 360 and the DS played host to versions of Lego Star Wars II, and none of them count Lego Star Wars among their libraries (although Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii can play both games through backward compatibility).
