The smash hit Minecraft may have just been released for the PlayStation 3, but according to the game's creator Markus "Notch" Persson, there aren't any plans for a Wii U release.
Speaking out on Twitter, Notch said, "I am not aware of any plans to release a Wii U version of Minecraft."
Earlier in 2013, Notch explained that Microsoft previously had an exclusivity deal forMinecraft on consoles, and once that was up, the team was going to consider bringing the game to PlayStation. Even back then he said Wii U is "very unlikely."
The reason the port isn't in the works isn't because Notch doesn't like Nintendo though. In a follow-up Tweet, he said, "I agree a Wii U version would make sense, [by the way]. The only reason for no current plans is we've got too much work already. I <3 Nintendo."
When he says Mojang, developer of Minecraft, has too much work already, he's probably referring to the effort going in to the upcoming PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One versions of the game.
