I do absolutely understand that some people prefer console and want PC ports to it. I have my own preferences for which games I like on PC versus console (generally, anything point and click or menu/keyboard extensive I want on the PC). And in that respect, the people telling me to just pair a controller to my PC for the ones I do not simply do not get that controller support does not always cut it.
However, I truly loved the old console spin offs. I nearly had them all in the Sims 2 era. I gave them a fair try in the Sims 3 era (though several were the stepping stone to the straight PC port). The controls and gameplay I always felt suited console, because it was the Sims but meeting all the criteria for me to want it on console (more of a Sims RPG sort of thing, you were or possessed the Sims and you controlled them rather than merely directing).
As it stands now, I have absolutely no reason to have anything Sims on console. I do not need two of the same game, and it is a shame those creative ideas like the Urbz or the specific setting games like Castaway had to die for a port.
