EA may not have ceased Wii U development all together as initially thought, based on new comments from the company.

Speaking at the Stifel Nicolaus 2013 Internet, Media and Communications Conference today, EA chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen noted that the publisher does have content in the works for the Wii U, but not as many titles as PlayStation and Xbox consoles.

Jorgensen also said the following about Wii U during the event:

“You know, I think Nintendo’s business was more [an] extension of their last console. I think what the consumer will find is a lot more powerful gameplay with the new boxes that are coming out, and a lot of excitement, but it’ll remain to be seen as to the services associated with those as to how consumers decide which direction they might want to go.”

A.N.N.E has been fully funded on Kickstarter with nearly $90,000 raised, but with only two days remaining, the project is unlikely to hit its Wii U stretch goal of $140,000. Fortunately, developer Gamesbymo has guaranteed that A.N.N.E. will head to the eShop even if that target isn’t reached.

All versions will be made in due time, though the wait will be a bit longer if stretch goals aren’t met.

Gamesbymo wrote on Kickstarter:

“The consoles listed in the stretch goals will happen regardless of if we meet the stretch goals or not. But it will take longer than if we do meet the stretch goals. This could be a good opportunity for the wishful to pledge $15 and up and then when the game comes out on console later, it will be a good reason to explore Planet Gomi a second time!”
