Minecraft: Wii U Edition may finally be coming to Wii U, if a listing on PEGI is anything to go by. The UK ratings board just added the game to its database today.

Minecraft is available on just about every platform, but it has yet to hit Wii U. Minecraft: Story Mode – a spinoff of the franchise made by Telltale Games – is heading to the eShop at some point soon.

Minecraft has graces most gaming systems, but it has yet to arrive on Nintendo platforms. That doesn’t mean developer Mojang is against the idea though.

“If I had my way, we’d be on everything,” COO Vu Bui told MCV. “We want to continue to be available to all players, and that means being on new platforms because everyone uses something different.”

MCV specifically asked if a Nintendo version of Minecraft could be possible. Regarding this, Bui said: “I’ve never heard a reason why we haven’t ended up on Wii U or 3DS. It just hasn’t happened yet.”

So how about it: is Minecraft something you guys would like to see on Wii U and 3DS?

A few modders have managed to import a level from Minecraft to Super Mario 64 DS. Even though it doesn’t offer a ton of functionality, it’s still a pretty neat thing to see.

Mojang founder Markus Persson, who also goes by the name Notch, has ruled out Minecraft for Wii U. Rumors of a possible release on Nintendo’s console began to appear last week.

Persson wrote on Twitter that Minecraft “would make sense” on Wii U. “The only reason for no current plans is we’ve got too much work already,” he explained.

Minecraft may be making its way to Wii U next year, if a report from Nintendo Enthusiast is to be believed.

The site claims – via a “retailer source” – that Mojang has Wii U dev kits at its disposal and is targeting a release next summer.

Not much is known about how Minecraft will play on Wii U at this time, though the team is apparently “focusing on the GamePad”.

A word of advice: take this rumor with a huge grain of salt for now.
