It's pretty sad that it's taken this long. If huge support means ports of older games, that would be disappointing. Until the Wii starts getting multiplatform releases at the same time or exclusives I wouldn't consider this huge.

I particularly like “Wii is the market leader–they’re getting half of our emphasis in terms of title count.”

HALF OF ... TITLE COUNT!

So, ~1/2 of EA published games from now on will be on Wii. That's nice. Can't wait to hear what the other devs say. I'm sure this year Wii published titles will be king, easy.

@ Soriku - that's why they're the next targets, because they are giving the Wii very good support.

However, being as they still have things like
Street Fighter IV, FFXIII, FFV XIII that aren't coming to the Wii then they aren't as dedicated to the Wii as Sega and now EA are.

This Dead Space game might be a new one, no details yet (IGN said it "heard" it's a new one).

If EA are serious about the Wii then they can get of their arses and do a proper Wii specific burnout game and not an old port.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!
