Forums - Nintendo - [Rumor] Nintendo had a meeting with EA last month: Is this why NX was delayed to 2017?

If Nintendo had a meeting with EA, I wonder if that means they're ready to offer the same kind of support as Sony and Microsoft? Or perhaps they ran into the same deadlocks as before? The ball is really in Nintendo's court. It should be interesting to see if their attitude is the same following the Wii U as it was following the Wii.

Still, even if they are ready to do business with third-party publishers, I can't imagine Nintendo worrying too much about aligning their launch dates. It's much more likely that it has to do with waiting for first-party projects.

Yes cause their unprecedented partnership is so important

EA just wanted to have a good laugh before they do another Game exclusive to non-nintendo devices.

They'll release ME4 on the NX for 60 dollars, and at the same time, the HD tetralogy for 30 dollars everywhere else.

Which is only fair. The console is cheaper, the online is free and they're used to high game prices anyway.

But seriously, unless Nintendo is really going full guns' blazing, the expected power shouldn't really be above PS4K. Ideal power being OG PS4. Anything fancier than that would become a hindrance to the console if it doesn't get 3rd party support.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

But this has nothing to do with the power of the console. This is about Nintendo delaying the launch of their console and who knows if maybe also damaging their business prospects because of a single software company that happens to have zero interest in their previous machines, and I use the plural because EA hasn't worked with Wii U not the 3DS.

And yet, people find it believable.

Yeah, that is certainly unbelievable. Considering the "unprecedented partnership" ended up as a couple of rushed games,  EA's least supported home console and handheld since the Dreamcast,  and a copule of harmful tweets, Nintendo will have as little consideration for EA as they can get away with. I hope Nintendo makes a decent sports simulator to compete with EA sports. An actual, in depth, online multiplayer, Wii Sports. Not a collection of minigames, really deep sports games.
