EA Wants To Be #2 DS/Wii Publisher

02 Feb

Posted by Matt Stone as Business

EA CEO Larry Probst said in a conference call to investors that they plan to increase support for the Nintendo DS and Wii. He mentioned that EA plans to be the #2 publisher on both platforms, second only to Nintendo, of course. Their goal is to get 15-20% of the market share of games released on the DS and Wii, and have already 15 titles in development for Nintendo’s consoles. EA also confirmed that Spore will appear on the DS, but it comes as no surprise as creator Will Wright already revealed plans of getting the game to both the Wii and DS.

.. Yeah, EA should be more like Sony and only cater to the rich and geeky.

sarcasm aside, I think it would be better for them to be #15 and only have several games, as long as those were the highest quality games.

Did someone just call someone else a retard for real? How about leaving that sort of language somewhere else? Stop bitching people.
