I don't see it as sabotage, nor a grudge against he Wii itself. It's more of a misinterpretation of what a true Wii consumer is.
EA and some Companies bet on the wrong horse, then decided to ride it using the wrong products (Call it birdmen, shovelware, whatever) thinking the consumer will buy them. Other companies started right, but then they lost the grounds with wrong products. And then they reach the wrong conclusions to blame the customer, the Wii or even Nintendo. Instead of admitting their guilt.
An average Wii consumer is not very forgiving. when a product is bad or the customer feels shafted, the trust for the company diminishes and it reflects on the sales. Nintendo knows this more than any other developer.
The backfire is what any company fears the most. I hope EA has good damage control
