EA source says “NINTENDO was dead to us quickly” after the Wii U

[xXAwesomeDudeXx]

Now, if you say that to EA's face, it might bring up some changes. I think they are avoiding the Wii u mainly because of the games the Wii U has. They regard Mario kart and Mario as games for a younger audience, and they are assuming that games for a more mature audience won't work out well enough. You can take the sales of CoD Ghosts for example. The sales on the Wii u only accounted for 1% of the total sales. (Not an EA game, though)
They did not release Battlefield 4 on the Wii u because of it's inability to run Frostbite 3.

I understand it's inability to run Frostbite 3 but why does that keep them from publishing other games on the Wii U like how they did with their earlier games, also how is Littlest Pet Shop not kiddie, EA's got some bad excuses up their sleeves.

That's exactly what i'm talking about. No one can force EA to work on games for the Wii U, so they are free to do whatever they like.

If only EA could support Nintendo now; they have quite a few major franchises coming up that could boost Wii U sales, alongside Nintendo's own massive MK8 launch. Star Wars Battlefront III, Sims 4, FIFA 15, Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare and tons of other sports games coming up. These are games which could mostly appeal to casuals, so if marketed alongside Nintendo's own games (and actually make to a decent standard), they will sell. If EA were to help out Nintendo, chances are that Wii U sales could slowly rise, Ubisoft and a few others who are on the edge will come around to helping with their own games which they will only release when Wii U sales increase.

The last game I bought that EA made was Burnout Paradise, I have not seen any games after that, that I have been interested from EA. I never played a Battlefield game, not a sports fan, never played Mass Effect, and Need For Speed has gone downhill.
