I don't think I'm oversimplifying things at all actually. EA is very aware of what kind of gamers own a Switch and what games they buy. They pay research firms to find out just that information. You're positive that the Sims would sell better than FIFA on the Switch? Based on what exactly?
You're acting like you know more about the Switch and its userbase than EA does. Don't you think that's just a tad ridiculous?

And to be fair, the last Sims game released was The Sims 4 in 2014. EA might not have anything from the Sims franchise that is suitable (or low risk) to port to the Switch at this time. FIFA might have been chosen because it's more current and a higher volume seller.
