Should EA continue to ignore Nintendo?

The motive is it wouldn't have sold, and EA would have lost more money than if they had released it. Just like the fully complete localization of Earthbound Beginnings that never came out. No hidden motive. Just an obvious motive: money.

How should EA loose money with an already finished game?

Crysis 3 would had sell easily 100-300k on wii u (like similar aaa titles).

Even if we say just 100k. Ea would probly make 20 bucks profit per sold game (rest taxes and all the other stuff).

 

100k x 20bucks = 2mil.

 

How should they pay more then 2mil to release the game? Doesnt make any sense at all.

It costs some money to get a game made and in shops. $20 profit per game is optimistic aswell.

I do think they would have made a small profit though, but EA probably just thought it wasn't worth it in the long run, with maintaining servers for the game to think about.
