EA is losing money on PS3/360 games and doesn't have many Wii games that far through development, Ubisoft has many games ready for the Wii, it makes perfect sense for them to invest more into Ubi at this time :)

EA has been buying into Ubisoft long before the Wii came so no this isn't cause of the Wii games of Ubisoft, this is eliminating a main competitor in the gaming market and acquiring lots of studios and resources.

 

ckmlb, EA is not trying to eliminate Ubisoft. That would be against the point of investing into the company. They are trying to strengthen themselves, while reaching out to other customers through other companies influence.
