Terraria Coming to Wii U and 3DS

Capitalizing on the absence of Minecraft on both the Wii U and 3DS,  Re-Logic's 2D sandbox game Terraria is coming to Nintendo platforms in the first quarter of next year.

In my family Terraria has eclipsed Minecraft in terms of popularity with the children preferring the more story-led game-play despite the more limited two dimensional play-field. This, combined with the four player split screen collaboration has proved a compelling experience. You can follow their progress with the game via their Let's Play Terraria video series.
