EA uses Xbox 360 graphics to sell Wii game

Could it simply be that the type of games that EA makes is not the kind of game that the average Wii owner plays?

 

 Wrong on this count.   Not only is Tiger Woods EA's best seller on Wii (now after Rockband), the Wii version of Tiger Woods is, by far, the best selling version of the game.

 

I didn't say that Tiger Woods wasn't a big seller on the Wii, I said the "type of games EA makes", which is an overall general statement and not specific to a single title.

EA's most successful franchise is the Madden series.

Madden 09 has sold a respectable 460k units, but when compared to the 360s 1,555k and the PS3s 1,030k, it just doesn't fare as well for EA.

But then again, it's much easier to use the Wii as a golfing platform than it is to use the controllers for football...
