Just a few years ago, Nintendo and EA announced that they had entered an “unprecedented partnership” it was quite a big deal. A deal that seems to have soured more recently with EA stating that they have no games in the pipeline for the Wii U.
EA Spokesperson Jeff Brown told Kotaku
“We have no games in development for the Wii U currently.”
While this doesn’t rule out the Wii U from ever getting new games in franchises like The Sims and Mass Effect, it is worrying that they have nothing in development for the Wii U right now.
We’ve suspected something like this might be said, since many of EA’s most popular franchises like FIFA and Madden are skipping the Wii U in upcoming iterations.
As much as people enjoy hating EA, they do develop and publish many extremely popular and well received games, and it will be a shame to not have them on the Wii U.
Do you think this will only be temporary, or are you bracing for an entirely EA-free Wii U future? Let us know in the comments.
