That came out at launch and they never followed up with another title.
Fifa 13 was EA's only title last year and it was a re-skin of last year's game complete with no online and 15fps animations.

This guy reminds me of the Brock Lesnar plant from Raw...
Sorry didn't know the Wii had DLC beyond just a single title. Like I said I'm ignorant on the subject of Nintendo consoles and DLC. I'm human and don't know everything, hence why I asked.
DLC, Free-to-play, no problem on Wii U. I don't know about system passes though.

At what point do you start felling bad for Nintendo's circumstance?

He's the new "Two Gamecubes duct-taped together" guy.
I doubt EA even cares at this point.

Amongst who? Nintendo fans they no longer support? It's not a big deal given the situation.

People make disrespectful comments towards companies online, I won't use the internet anymore.
#Deal with it.
I sense someone's going to have a stern talking to today along with a tenuous handshake followed by a hasta luego.

The truth is absolute & never disrespect. Perhaps those who deny the truth are truly disrespectful.
DLC isnt the issue here, they're not releasing it for their games because they don't think its worth the effort due to the low user base and the low sales for their titles.

Not really, they tried to buy everyone at the early part of the gen, even made a play for Take 2 iirc.

EA so salty because Nintendo refused their Origin shit and FIFA shitty port.
True enough, but it's the same 30% everything takes for digital distribution, so it's effectively free.

There seems to be an odd double standard in the reactions here:
Trash Wii U in an article on a major site = "oh man Wii U is doomed, truth bombs left right and centre, dat ether" etc
Trash Wii U on your twitter where there's a character limit and it's usually for your own personal use = "that is SO unprofessional! how dare he! so salty. he should be FIRED"
... even if it's the exact same criticism as the major sites.
At what point did being tactful hijack truth value?

About the same time they start learning from their mistakes.
Doesn't it have something to do with the transition to 3D games? As in they only counted from there onwards?

As a consumer who bought a WiiU on launch day. I don't feel bad for Nintendo. I feel angry.
I call people an asshat when they make an asshat out of themselves. Not because they've offended me personally.
While the titles he's worked on seem like soulless drivel, this comment is seriously uncalled for. It's more of the company that creates the results in the products, not this one man. Don't hate one employee for a product.

Can you feel bad though, they did kinda put themselves in this situation. I know what you mean though. Hope they can at least get to gamecube numbers.
3D gens? Presumably EA sees it as:
Gen 1 - PS1, N64, Saturn
Gen 2 - PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, Wii
Gen 3 - PS3, 360, Wii U
Gen 4 - PS4, Nextbox
Were there?

they're just laying low before trying again
It sold quite well on Vita despite the FIFA 12 port actually being present on the platform as well.
that was my first though

Is everyone on GAF and gaming journalism British?
Or is "Nintendo "are" doomed" now correct grammar in America, rather than
"Nintendo "is" doomed?"

EA stopped developing for 3DS?
Indeed, lot's of hate and vile statements lately. How many dogs did Reggie run over? Damn.
Good Lord man. Take a step back and read what you just typed.
Respect off who ? What would the industry gain if whoever it is you feel doesn't respect it suddenly changed their mind ?
This " he is being unprofessional " is coming from man children but hurt someone said something bad about Nintendo.
I doubt anyone really cares what this guy thinks ( especially when he is just parroting opinions being written all over the Internet) and those who do will realise his job doesn't stop him being entitled to express an opinion , even if it on social media.

Not right now, that's for sure. They dug this hole themselves with the Wii U, at least from what I can tell.
Adapt to the market or be left behind.
No they aren't. This one of the ways you know the situation with EA and Nintendo has nothing to do with sales.
