I’m conflicted. I love me some Toki Tori, but I can’t stand the Harlem Shake. I feel like that meme ran its course weeks ago!

The newly-launched SimCity will remain on PC – and PC only. EA has no plans to bring the game to consoles at this time.

An official tweet from the SimCity Twitter account states:

The last SimCity game for consoles was SimCity Creator. EA published the game for Wii back in 2008.

David Byers, the sole creator of Another Castle, is currently hard at work on completing the platformer. But what lies ahead for the future?

While he can’t officially confirm anything at present, Byers is thinking about “making a tiny, quirky project from the ground up just for the Wii U.” It wouldn’t be a platformer like Another Castle, and it would “look completely different”.

“I’m considering making a tiny, quirky project from the ground up just for the Wii U. Mainly just for fun. I don’t have any specific plans yet, all I know is it won’t be a platformer, and it will look completely different from Another Castle.”

Mojang’s Jens Bergensten was quoted as saying earlier this week that a Wii U version of Minecraft is “very unlikely.” But his words weren’t intended to be looked upon as a big negative for Nintendo’s console.

Bergensten has since clarified that when it comes to bringing Minecraft to new platforms, “Wii U is no more likely than any other platforms, but no less either.”

“The reason I said that is that the Wii U hasn’t even been mentioned when we’re talking about Minecraft platforms. However, I’m only responsible for the PC and Pocket editions, so the question wasn’t mine to answer. The Wii U is no more likely than any other platforms, but no less either.”

Would Minecraft on Wii U be something that you guys would like to see?
