No it's not. The console version is the port. Sim 2000 was built for PC.

Last time I checked, macs & amigas were personal computers.

Also, just because something was released on another format doesn’t necessarily make every successive release a port.

So what would you call "transporting" Logic to pc? it sounds like a port to me.


But whatever makes you comfortable..

There’s a difference between copying a game across platforms, and taking the original game and re-engineering it for a platform. Im just saying often when I see people use the word port, they’re incorrect.

Your wiki quote says exactly the same thing I did. Sim City 2000 was BUILT for PC, and later was ported to console.
