Well I will refrain from commenting on the typical Nintendo fan mentality that others are making realistic and boring games, will consider that "taste".

Fifa is the best selling EA game, and from what some Nintendo fans said the game is quite good (just missing some things the other games have), so selling 1% is nowhere normal.

From what we see on this forum ANY and EVERYTHING is used as excuse by Nintendo fans to not buy a 3rd party game "out of principle", and has been like that since at least Wii (we can't say for before because VGC wasn't around). It is always the 3rd parties have to tailor their game to Nintendo or overcome the weak hardware for Nintendo fans to consider buying.

So if EA need to make a game specifically to the taste of Nintendo fans they won't do because the userbase is smaller, if they have to just port sure Nintendo fans can pressure both EA and Nintendo to get the port. But the amount of times AAA publishers failed on Nintendo HW isn't helping they trying.

It's still only the UK market where it's 1%. You love solid numbers, don't you? Then stop bringing back these 1% from the UK when we don't know the other numbers.

And yes, a 3rd party game can be successful on a Nintendo console, it just has to be complete and good. Examples are plenty.

How do you want me to bring numbers we don't have?

And we can also bring all the bad examples since Wii, what do you think?
