EA cancelled at 100% completed Crysis 3 that was ready to be shipped and everything. It makes me wonder what their motive is with all this shit? They couldn't even ship out a completed game? They straight up say NO to a few extra bucks, but FOR WHAT? Like you said, they don't have NFS listed on their website. WHY? im sure they have some copies to sell. There seems to be something deeper going on. Something that causes EA to not take any money resulting from a Nintendo product whatsoever. What is the motive?? |
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.

The thing is it would have sold. Crysis 3 as a launch game on Wii U (and from all reports it was technically far superior to the PS3/360 versions) would have been a system seller and put paid to the misinformation at the time of launch that Wii U was weaker than the current Sony and Microsoft consoles.
As big as Nintendo is EA is not an emeny you want to have, like them or not they are one of the biggest publishers in the world. When EA released Fifa 14 on the 7 year old Wii but not Wii U and didn't release Madden in PAL territories at all you knew that they had the shits proper.
Nintendo need to have a complete rethink on their relationships with 3rd party devs and companies like EA and Ubisoft are critical to the success of NX.
