'Crysis 3' not coming to Wii U due to lack of "business drive"

Could anybody translate "lack of business drive" from business English to regular English?

Nintendo wasn't willing to give them any money /licensing breaks/free advertising.

EA could spend the money porting, or they could use it towards making another game they hope to be a big hit.   It's not like Crysis is a top tier franchise.

I think Crysis 2 cracked maybe a million on each HD Console?

 

Crysis is really just a franchise for PC graphic elitists.  Interest in it's inclusion or exclusion from the Wii U is likely just due to that graphical reputation and the chance it wasn't on the Wii U due to the "weak graphics" false narrative of the Wii U.
