Just what the hell happened between EA and Nintendo?..Do you guys think this is only because of Origin?...I'm not sure I buy that idea, there's something else there. 

That would be a problem but EA will probably spin it around and say "we won't lose customers because no one will buy it on the WiiU"

I refuse to think this is all on the origin deal ending, this is PERSONAL at a higher grade than high

Look at what they put on Wii U, though. Gimped, overpriced versions of old games. The kind of stuff you throw together just to have some sort of presence at launch. They could not have reasonably expected that garbage to shift many units, so I don't believe they're basing this on poor sales of their own software.

I might believe they're basing it on the overall negativity about the Wii U, but it seems more likely to me that something happened between the two that caused them to get sideways with each other. This is like EA vs. Sega all over again, but that was because EA had reservations about Sega's choice of hardware and just flat out refused to put anything on the Dreamcast at all. This situation is something that seemed to develop after the Wii U launched.
