Is there actual effort put into this game? I may pick it up on principle alone if that is the case.

No footage shown at the EA event probably means it will be show for the first time at Nintendo's Digital E3 event.

As if they have to justify anything.

Nintendo shouldn't waste time on this. 

it's an important game for the Switch, being shown at the E3 Nintendo event was always going to happen, lets be real. 

So.... EA actually made a decent port? Big surprise indeed

People on gaf having played it are liking it.

Sounds promising.

Will you please link me to the thread? I never go on neogaf but I do want to read about their impressions.

Some off camera pics, obviously it's not the best way to look the game, but it looks decent:

From NeoGaf user dark10x:

Played it briefly myself. A step down from the other version but it looks quite good on the Switch itself. 60fps during gameplay and 30 during cuts and other angles (as usual I suppose). Character models are decent but look kinda dated. I think folks will be generally happy with the visual aspect at least.

60 fps gameplay, not bad. 

Well, this ended up being better than expected.I mean, I still think PS4 and XOne version to be better, because of the Journey mode, but in the other hand Switch has the portability and the Ultimate Teams mode going for it(I dont think the other versions has this).

This might end up selling well.
