EA: we had a "rocky start" on Xbox 360 and PS3, but our new IPs and Frostbite will dominate Xbox 720 and PS4

Good for next-gen, WiiU won't be drowned by shovelware from EA, good.

I'm sorry but this post screaaaaaaaaaams 'sour grapes'

OT: good stuff...and gonna be exciting to see what these games will end up being

Really? It was supposed to be sarcastic...Khan picked up on that...

At any rate, odds are good for these games to be on WiiU one way or another anyway, namely as its the first "next-gen' system.

let's be honest here...comments like these from EA are basically trolling wiiu by not even putting it in the 'next gen' category. They are specifically naming the next xbox/PS. I remember reading a very similar statement a few weeks back on gaf where another source alluded to the same thing. I would love to know what these 'signs' that make you have such 'odds' to be honest.

Yeah, it's clear EA (and a few other 3rd party devs) are ignoring the WiiU to an extent. Actually, more accurate would be not giving it a chance.

As to these signs? You only need to look at EA's games (though, mainly the Sports side) to see that they release games on every console going. Heck, the newest FIFA and Madden games launched on the PS2 as well. Battlefield? That's a different matter really. Less chance of that coming, but if games like COD and ZombiU sell well, and it's as easy to port over to WiiU as Nintendo suggest, then there's a good chance we'll see EA at least test the waters with a game. Same with Dead Space.

Sports titles are released on every console possible. That and this are very different tho. They are talking about new IPs based on Frostbyte engine. I'm sure at least 1-2 of them will be on a lot of platforms. But for yoru theory to become true, there are a LOT of Ifs involved. Since they specifically mention the next xbox/PS here...I don't see any reason to think otherwise.

But there's always a chance of ports later on I guess
