You doing wrong! You don't quote the post you're supposed to be ignoring!

Your sig needs Winged Pikmin!

You know the PS3, PS4, 360, PC, and Next box are willing to provide you games if you're willing to broaden your horizens . And we are a friendly bunch and we do not bite.

If anything this only enforces the idea that they are going to go always online this gen.

Both Sony and Microsoft said it's "up to the publisher" they're getting rid of online passes because they have no need for it now that they can lock them and employ microtransactions. (You need to be online to employ DLC anyways) 

Possibly EA was trying to implement the same thing using Origin on WiiU, but Nintendo said no at the last moment.

I also have no doubt that EA is actively trying to kill Nintendo now. Mangggg~~~~~~ Too juicy. I still don't hate them but yeah this is pretty bad. Ah well. 

(And for those of ya'll wanting Nintendo to go 3rd party SHUT UP you know what'll happen? SEGA 2.0. No way in hell that's good)

that suck. i won't miss out on anything as i always end up getting a second console, but i wish just once i could one console with all my favorite games. And i feel like the exclusive space this past generation became much more subtle. Oh well, there is still a chance. I haven't been INCREDIBLY impressed with dead space yet (haven't played the 3rd one yet), i don't know if they'll move forward with more army of two's, and i doubt another nba jam is coming anytime soon. Konami, i look to you. Although realistically, after the new consoles come out, there will be next to no QUALITY 3rd party games just like the wii. Guess i'll have to get that 2nd console after all. bagh

Can you blame them? No one except Nintendo makes (good) games for Nintendo consoles!

OT: I agree, water is indeed wet.

Why else would they keep on about it?

So EA was expecting Wii only owners to upgrade to the WiiU and buy the HD games they were missing out. Those are the only people that would buy those games. No PS3/360 owner buying a WiiU would buy any of those EA games, no way.
How many people would fall into that category?? What was EA expecting? How many copies were they hoping to sell to such a small market?

Here I thought it was simply relegated to "no good games in development" like usual, but now they're not even trying? Sad.

I don't think a lot of the people salivating at the thought of EA not supporting Nintendo and beating off to this don't actaully realize the industry wide implications if this is true.

This essentially means EA is going all-in on online features like DLC, and other publishers are looking to follow a similar strategy. We think EA's going to do this, but just wait when Activision tries.

And it makes sense why. If you want to sell people DLC and expansion packs, you need them online. No doubt Sony and M$ want to appease such developers and hence their (publisher decides stuff). Dark ages are a coming.
