Madden and Fifa on Vita were good console ports.... nobody bought them..
See, The Sims will live again thanks to Nintendo.
How is it "underpowered"? You have the final specs?
It's just Madden, guys.
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2.
Would actually mesh really well with the Nintendo target demographics.
Mass Effect but it was on wiiu as well. So probably Madden and Fifa since they never been on the wii u.
It'll probably just be Madden. It's still EA's best-selling franchise, and you may as well test the waters with a known quantity.
Forget about PvZ GW2, it's an online only game. Game would be basically unplayable on portable mode. This is something other than PvZ.
Is it?
FIFA and Battlefield are significantly larger. So is Battlefront.
It has plenty of single-player/split-screen stuff.

We don't. But I assume he meant underpowered compared to PS4/Xbone, which it most likely will be.

Which goes against what noted insiders on this very forum have stated. The Switch is capable of running any game that the Xbox One and PS4 can run.
Game still requires an internet connection for all modes. Kinda like Overwatch.
It has plenty of single player content. EA can easily turn off mandatory internet connection for the Switch version, like Blizzard did with Diablo 3 on consoles.
Also, there's going to be plenty of online stuff in general on the Switch if you were referring to needing online for multiplayer. What do you think Switch Splatoon is going to be like on portable mode?
I said relatively underpowered, as in it won't be as powerful as the PS4 or XB1. Based on the leaked specs (and common sense), you are going to be disappointed if you expect otherwise.
...
For the rumoured specs and rumoured price it's not going to run them very well. You're looking at a significant downgrade performance wise. It's going to be around as powerful as the Wii U, if not a little better, from what I understand. Then again, I'm still running on launch rumours because I'm just really not interested enough to keep up with the Switch information.

I'd put that down to the majority of Vita sales being in Japan. Japanese people don't care much for American football and prefer Pro Evo over FIFA.Madden and Fifa on Vita were good console ports.... nobody bought them..
Yeah but which years?
What rumored specs for final retail unit or the rumored specs of the early development kits? Dev kits don't equal final retail specs. Not interested enough to keep up information but can outright dismiss information to the contrary of your worldview.
It's a one year old game, I don't think EA would go through all the editing, making it offline and stuff. Mass Efefct 3 showed that one year old ports fail. If it's really PvZ, it should be a new game, GW3 instead of a late port.
I still don't think this is GW, though.
Unprecedented
It's a Tegra inside it. And it's not the X2, not if they're looking at it being as affordable as the recent rumours are. So you're looking at something between the X1 and X2. And the X1 has worse performance than the Wii U, so really, we're looking at a portable Wii U. Which to be fair, is better than it should be if we consider the pattern of handhelds being roughly a generation and a half behind home consoles.
Has nothing to do with dismissing information outright. I'm not a Nintendo gamer, their games aren't for me. Doesn't mean I'm hating on it for hating sake. I just haven't kept up with information because right now I'm not planning on buying it any time near launch based on what they revealed. However, during the reveal I did my fair share of looking into what we can expect of the machine since I'm probably going to get one when Monster Hunter 5 gets released (assuming the rumours of Capcom branching out to other consoles are unfounded).
