EA is still mad at Nintendo? Way to go -_-

lolwut

Companies aren't people; they don't get "mad" at one another. One thing drives companies - money. Simply put, there are not enough users of the Wii U to warrant making a port. 

It is naive to think that company decisions only based on facts and "where the money is". They are made by people. And people could be huffish or angry.

Fact is that EA wanted Nintendo to make Origin the only Wii U shop system. But Nintendo refused. Some people at EA are surely mad about Nintendo. 

Actually that's incredibly naive to think that management of such companies get "huffish" and would make decisions which would make the lose money because two things keep them in check:

a) profits and
b) stock holders

EA will be dissapointed that Origin isn't the store on the Wii U, but that isn't going to make them take adopt a juvenile attitude towards Nintendo. Big business doesn't work like that and ultimately this also is hardly the first case of a multiplat not being ported to the wii u. I think making out it's just EA having an attitude problem is Wii U owners trying to sugar coat a more serious issue. 

Then explain why EA tried to bully Sega into making them the only sports game maker on the Dreamcast and outright refused to make games for it when they didn't get their way (NFL2k outsold madden that year) And explain why Trip Hawkins were so mad when the investors forced him to make games for the NES that he threw his shoe (or was it chair) at the meeting table.
