An EA spokesperson has told Kotaku that they currently have no games in development for Nintendo’s Wii U console. No NHL, no Madden, No Battlefield, No Star Wars. Nothing.
The news comes as a bit of a surprise, as EA was one of the first third party studios to throw their support behind Nintendo’s console. Releasing Madden NFL 13, FIFA Soccer 13 and Mass Effect 3 for the console, and most recently released Need for Speed Most Wanted. EA was also a major part of Nintendo’s E3 2012 press conference, promising an “unprecedented partnership.”
Blast has reached out to both Nintendo and EA. We’ll update this story if we hear anything.
