From another thread:

Personally i don't believe the "back in the race" is towards something specific like the home console segment. Given his past comments of casual gamers and EA's comments saying it won't appeal to PS4 gamers and that NX is to upgrade mobile gamers, the "race" is talking about is something more generic, as in, Nintendo is again a serious competitor in the gaming industry (both mobile and traditional gaming) with NX.

I must have missed this, was EA talking about the NX or WiiU.  Do you happen to have a link a quick search on my end didn't yeald that paraphrase?

Thanks for the question because you made me go look for the source and i realised i was wrong: the quote was not from EA, but from a unnamed developer that MCV spoke to: "It’s a nice bit of kit, a bit of a novelty, but a good one,” said one exec that has got hands on with the machine. “It won’t appeal to PS4 fans. Nintendo seems set on trying to upgrade smartphone gamers. That’s going to be a big job for the marketing department.”

Sorry about the mistake!
