The polar bears ate them.
Yes, really. More exactly, penguins could only have evolved in areas with no major land predators. Bears, foxes, and other land carnivores are common in the northern hemisphere but not in Antarctica. What few land-nesting bird species exist in the north have to hide or stay out of the reach of predators, and waddling flightless adults would have been easy pickings.

Polar bears went north so the penguins avoided them and went south.
