| Soundwave said: EA's not entirely wrong, their games wouldn't sell well on the Wii U and they were right to jump ship. They wanted a full generational leap from the PS3/360, once they didn't get it, I think they decided to phone it in. They don't have a Skylanders like Activision or Just Dance like Ubi Soft to give a hoot about. Nintendo fans just want a scapegoat to blame, so EA makes an easy target, but anyone who thinks the Wii U would be selling any better with Madden NFL and Battlefield when Call of Duty, NBA 2K, and Assassin's Creed didn't jack all for the Wii U are kidding themselves. |
I'm not so sure Nintendo fans (maybe some here and there) are using EA as a scapegoat, rather they are just expressing themselves the same way the EA employees have express themselves.
You make it sound like EA are the victims. You do know EA are the ones setting up baits. After their WiiU games have been released and failed, there's always been someone from EA that bad mouths Nintendo and giving out materials for baiting Nintendofan. They could have easily said, "no comment" or dodge questions or not say anything. Instead, they openly say stuff like, "WiiU is crap" or "Nintendo is dead to us".
