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

Then wiki lies.

SimCity 2000 (SC2K) is a simulation/city building computer game and the second installment in the SimCity series. SimCity 2000 was first released by Maxis in 1993 for computers running the Apple Macintosh Operating System. It was later released on the Amiga in 1994 and re-released on DOS & Microsoft Windows. In 1995, SimCity 2000 won "Best Military or Strategy Computer Game" Origins Award.

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.
