Big John Games has yet to make a game for Wii U. That doesn’t mean this won’t change in the future, however.

In an interview with Super Phillip Central, Big John Games’ Ken Patterson hinted that the company may eventually create a title for Wii U. He said:

We keep looking at Wii U projects. Right now it seems like our resources are better spent making 3DS games. That will change once the right game concept comes along.

Patterson also discussed sales of Big John Games’ eShop releases in the same interview. Coaster Creator 3D and the Big Bass Arcade games appear to have performed the best.

We sold a lot of Thorium Wars on the DSi, our sequel on the 3DS has not done as well. Our Big Bass Arcade games have done well on all of the Nintendo platforms. Coaster Creator 3D has sold well on the 3DS here in North America, Europe and has sold really well in Japan. We are very honored to have some of our games selling in Japan.

Resident Evil: Revelations was initially a 3DS-only game. So it’s definitely a shame to see that the sequel, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, isn’t planned for the portable whatsoever.

Producer Michiteru Okabe explained to DigitalSpy why this is so:

“The original game was released on home consoles a little while after the 3DS. It was called the ‘Unveiled Edition’ in Japan but just Resident Evil Revelations for consoles in the West. That’s where our starting point for the sequel is in a sense, the versions that were already on home platforms. It’s partly a technical reason. We have our own custom engine called the MT Framework, and as the mobile and home console versions are quite different technically, given that we were taking the home console versions as a starting point, it just led somewhat naturally. We tried to release it on as many platforms as we could, and that later became a selection of current and next-gen Xbox and PlayStation platforms as well as PC, so that’s how we ended up with that.”

You may remember that Resident Evil: Revelations eventually came to consoles – like Wii U. But as is the case with 3DS, there are “no plans” to bring Revelations 2 to Nintendo’s console, according to Okabe.
