SimCity game was apparently in the works for Wii U, but was cancelled in October 2011
EA is rumored to have been working on a new SimCity console game in recent years that sadly ended up as a cancelled project.
Liam Robertson from Unseen64 – a site known for digging up game information including games that never made it to market – writes on Twitter that the title would have landed on Wii U in addition to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The plug was apparently pulled back in October 2011.
A prototype was created, though EA did not move forward with the new SimCity console project. It would have released alongside the 2013 PC game.
This just in – EA was working on a Sim City game for consoles – PS3, 360 and Wii U. Cancelled in October 2011.
