The WiiU had Mass Effect 3, Need For Speed U, Fifa 13. yet look at the numbers. these are financial numbers here, nothing for the press or nothing for marketing. there are two logical places were the numbers for the Wii are, either lumped in with the "Wii" numbers or lumped in with the "other" numbers. if its in the "other" catagory and considering even the PS2 had its own numbers pointed out its safe to say that the WiiU numbers are nothing short of abysmal, thus being lower than the PS2's 2 million sales. so the maximum number of revenue from all 4 nintendo consoles was less than 16 million, again absymal, the numbers speak for them selfs, and this is considering that the sales of these consoles are MUCH higher than the vita's+PSP's.
another thing is that even if we just take the 3DS's numbers with just fifa, with the number of sales the console is having the revenue should have been MUCH higher, yet the vita still manages to outperform it, you know the vita? the console with the really bad sales?
then look at the YoY change for the handheld sections for both platforms. sony handhelds revenue grew by 233% while the nintendo handhelds section only grew by 80% even though the 3DS sales this year were around what? 4 times much the vita's?
the numbers speak for them selfs, there is no emotion in this, no hate, no conspiracy theories, nintendo platforms arent the place for EA to make money, thats why they arent supporting them lately. if you were in EA's place would you support nintendo after looking at these numbers?

Well to be fair, its not like EA is giving their A effort.
Now with that being said, if you are a Wii U owner would you buy those games? Assuming that you ONLY have a Wii U? Im not being difficult i am curious

they certainly havent, but its not like they gave vita their A effort or even B effort either. and thats the thing, they wanted to cash in but they failed miserably (with nintendo consoles) from a money stand point that makes sense not to continue that effort. im honestly not attacking nintendo or WiiU, im simply saying that they can make much more money else where and that is what they are doing.
if i ONLY had a WiiU? i certainly would have bought NFSU as not only the game deserves to be bought but the fact that its the best console version makes it a must buy. and i would have bought fifa because i always play with my brothers that, so being a bit port or what ever wouldnt have mattered. im not interested in mass effect so i wouldnt have bought it, maybe i would have if i was interested in the series. and you are not being difficult dont worry about it
