Minecraft creator Markus “Notch” Persson addressed recent rumors Friday that a Wii U version of the popular open-world sandbox game was in the works. While he did put the kibosh on the rumor, he did leave a glimmer of hope for owners of the Nintendo console.

"I am not aware of any plans to release a Wii U version of Minecraft," Persson stated on Twitter account.

"I agree a Wii U version would make sense, [by the way]," the Mojang co-founder continued. "The only reason for no current plans is we've got too much work already. I

Smurfs I don't think it would be worth making it for Wii U since not enough people play it, at least I don't think so.


Actually, you would be surprised on how many people play on it


Yah i got lots of friends that play it.

Magusar It seems like it would fit well with the Wii U, being that it isn't super violent or anything. Oh well.


Yah they would probably make some good money off of it.

Tbh, loads of children have Wii U and Minecraft needs to open up it's audience to younger children because it will help them at becoming more creative in their lives... Just a thought.

Ice-Coolz I think personally they should go ahead and make one for wii.


Hmmm, they could I guess.... But personally. I don't enjoy minecraft much anymore. But kids might like it for the Wii U to play.


I love minecraft and I think they should have made it on the wii u.


It would probably have a much bigger community if this was on the Wii U i think.

ultimatemrnoob I think minecraft on wii u would be pretty good tbh


It would, but then again it would be REALLY hard to play on.


Well i dunno, WiiU's can't be that hard to play on otherwise people wouldn't buy it...


Well yes and no. If you're on PC and then trying to play on a Wii U when you never have played it before, it's going to be difficult until you get used to. However if you have played a Wii/Wii U before and are familiar with it, shouldn't take very long for you to get used to it.
