It gets fuzzy there, I have a hard time equating "This game is produced by Electronic Arts" and "This game is the brainchild of Will Wright". Will Wright is a developmental genius. EA is... less so.

And Wil Wright works for EA. If you do this, then Nintendo doesn't do Mario platforming games (they're Miyamato's brainchildren), Capcom doesn't do Mega Man (Inafune), and so forth.

You had a point when Wright was head of a unique company that happened to be owned by EA (Maxis), but that's no longer the case. He's simply in a division of EA, now, just like Miyamato, Itagaki, Pardo, and so forth.

Point taken (though Miyamoto and Inafune are also pretty near the top of my list of "My god these men are brilliant" :P)


 How can you not list Pardo :(
