Wii U's 2nd Christmas was end of first and beginning of Wii Us second year on market. Wii U had launch at end of November 2012. but at end of 2013. most 3rd party left platform, you can easily see that buy comparing how much 3rd party games were released on Wii U from launch until end of 2013. and after 2013.

I was just pointing out that Ubisoft, Activision, and even Warner Bros put in the effort with their major franchises for 2 holidays.  EA didn't bother to do a follow up on Fifa or Madden.  Which was a real shame.  The Madden game had an incredible feature of being able to draw your own hot routes for your Receivers at the line of scrimmage.  Unfortunately, the knock against Madden 13 was that EA used the Madden 12 engine for the Wii U port.  Meanwhile, the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions both got the new engine.  The funny part is, I haven't bought a Madden since.  I still play Madden 13 to this day on Wii U rather than buy the lastest edition for my Xbox One.  I would have bought Madden 14, Madden 25, etc. if they continued to release on Wii U.  But, EA's effort, unlike other major publishers, was a "one and done"; and they lost me as a customer on all platforms as a result. 

Not to mention the whole Origin boycott fiasco. I doubt that, if they didn't have that agreement with FIFA that they have to make at leat one FIFA game for every platform that comes out, they would've bothered with it at all.



You know it deserves the GOTY.
