Coming from EA's Peter Moore...
“Nintendo has always been and will always be an very important partner in this industry. They have some of the best first party development studios in the world, and some of the most valuable intellectual properties in the world. We have announced publicly that we got a partnership with them on their new platform, the Switch, we haven’t talked in detail on what’s that about. You can imagine, as you heard, that a major game will be distributed on that platform.

EA is hyping up that 1 game lol

1 game means it won't be neither of the sports games, because there is no reason to just develop one. It might be Mass Effect.

Not sure what you're getting at exactly...those two things aren't contradictory.

EA's a business and like any business, they're not going to invest heavy resources into tons of games on a platform coming off the Wii U and Nintendo's current situation. Nothing wrong with that.

It's definitely not Mass Effect going by what shinobi posted in the last thread discussing what EA's Switch game may be. FIFA is probably a safer bet. It doesn't require a lot of resources and it allows them to test the global market since it's popular everywhere.

He's drawing attention and projecting confidence toward a system that they aren't actually paying much attention or confidence in themselves. It's when the PR dance gets awkward.

Madden has to come to Switch, they are forced to make at least one version, but it wont be at launch, lol no way they release Madden a month after the NFL season ends. It will come in Augs tho

It sounds like they have one major game coming to Switch and that that does not preclude other games/ports like Fifa/Madden from also coming to the console.
