Terrarria won’t be coming to Wii U, according to 505 Games.
The publisher ruled out any potential plans to bring the title to Nintendo’s console on its official forums. 505 Games said, “there are other factors at play that prevent it from happening and we don’t expect that to change any time soon unfortunately.”
The company’s full comments are as follows:
We do not have any plans to bring Terraria to Wii U and it is not in development. Sorry. While the control mechanism may be nicely translated (agreed on that end), there are other factors at play that prevent it from happening and we don’t expect that to change any time soon unfortunately.
Terraria 3DS not happening

Sadly, Terraria won’t be making its way to the 3DS. Even though there’s significant interest on the part of creator Andrew Spinks, “the system unfortunately cannot run Terraria the way it needs to be ran.”
In an interview with RPS, Spinks said:
“I am wanting to code Terraria 2 in a more portable language so it can be released on multiple platforms at launch or close to launch. 3DS is something I was very interested in getting Terraria on but the system unfortunately cannot run Terraria the way it needs to be ran.”
Based on Spinks’ comments, perhaps Terraria 2 is something that could be more likely for the 3DS. If the game is being coded so that it’s more portable-friendly, then I don’t see why Nintendo’s handheld would be left out of the mix once again. But hey, I’m not a coder, nor am I making the game!
