I see it as EA trying to sabotage the Wii. They aren't the only one though. Maybe many of the devs are __still__ holding grudges against the Wii simply because they bet on the wrong horse early on? |
I don't see it as holding a grudge. I see two aspects -
1. Sabotaging the Wii due to fanboyism. You don't need an entire company to be fanboys, it's enough that you have a small but influential group of fanboys at the programmer level and they will affect all other people's opinions of this or that console and what it can or can't do.
2. Sabotaging the Wii as a business decision - If you think you can't succeed in a certain territory, or don't want to really try because you want to adhere to the good old ways, yet that territory affects your business, what better way than to seenmingly join it and sabotage it. The funny thing is that people think such thinking is paranoid/delusional, yet seem to forget that we are talking here about multi billion businesses. People are killing other people daily for much (much) smaller sums, so whether it is happening or not, sabotage of this kind certainly makes a lot of sense.
