Following the news of the North American arm of Hudson disbanding last month leaving the future of its titles uncertain, Konami ― the publisher into which Hudson will be absorbed ― later clarified what the official situation was regarding Hudson's projects.
Speaking to Wired, a Konami spokesperson responded to the speculation that all Hudson titles had been cancelled based on the company's release schedule being omitted from Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu:
If (the announcement) didn’t come from us, it’s not true... We have not distributed any official list of Hudson products yet.
This is evident from the Entertainment Software Rating Board's recent classification of Deca Sports Extreme for the 3DS. So with games like Kororinpa, Bonk: Brink of Extinction, and Omega Five on the backseat for the time being, we wait for Konami's official product list which should be released by the time E3 arrives in June.

Of course! Of all the games they had lined up, THIS is the one that makes it....
I wasn't quite sure what to think when I saw this earlier in the day. Just have to wait for Konami's official word I guess....
I used to support these guys but I gotta say their sports games suck.
holdin' thumbs for Bomberman 3DS
I spent my life collecting thumbs just for a moment like this.
Oh goodie...
what about tetris Axis?
I want to try the ice hockey. Please let it be fun.
So it seems more of a switching publishers and reevaluating all the games.
C'mon, let Bomberman and Tetris survive! D:
The product list doesn't come out till E3? So even if the games aren't canceled we'll probably still have to wait till the end of the year at the earliest for them? Well better late then never. I hope bomber man and the other games aren't really canceled.
