Carmack “extremely unlikely” to develop for Wii U, 3DS, PS Vita

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments

Don’t count on any Wii U, 3DS, or PlayStation Vita games from id Software founder and technical director John Carmack.

Carmack stated during a presentation at QuakeCon 2013 that he’s “extremely unlikely” to develop for any of the aforementioned platforms.

Journalist Britton Peele, who attended the event, shared the tidbit from Carmack on Twitter:

Carmack would love to develop for 3DS, Wii U, Vita … but it's "extremely unlikely to happen."
— Britton Peele (@BrittonPeele) August 1, 2013

Earlier in his talk, Carmack said that he had interest in bringing Doom 3: BFG Edition to Wii U and PS Vita, but they were not supported due to a lack of interest.

John Carmack, founder and technical director at id Software, has said that he would have liked to bring Doom 3: BFG Edition to Wii U and PS Vita.

Speaking at QuakeCon 2013 today, Carmack noted that even though both platforms would have been “great targets” for the game, there’s simply “not enough interest”.

Journalist Britton Peele relayed the news from Carmack on Twitter:

"I always thought the Wii U and the Vita would be great targets for Doom 3:BFG. But there's not enough interest" Carmack says.

Last year, Carmack said he wished he could bring Doom 3 BFG Edition to platforms such as the Wii U and PS Vita, but indicated that there wasn’t enough time to make this a reality.
