No Madden NFL football from EA Sports on Wii U in 2013

4.6
Wii U football fans must suffer a drought this year. EA Sports has confirmed with Joystiq that it has no plans to launch Madden NFL 25 on Wii U in 2013.

"We will not be releasing a Wii U version of Madden NFL in 2013. However, we have a strong partnership with Nintendo and will continue to evaluate opportunities for delivering additional Madden NFL products for Nintendo fans in the future," an EA Sports representative said in an email to Joystiq. Eyebrows were initially raised by the omission of Wii U as a listed platform on a fact sheet sent out by EA last week.

Madden NFL 25 boasts a new combo system for the running game and tweaks to the Infinity Engine introduced in last year's Madden NFL 13. Hall of Famer Barry Sanders was recently chosen by fans to grace the cover of Madden NFL 25, beating out Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.

I mean, to me, the wii u isn't that bad. The only reason I think is because everyone here is going with the bandwagon, and haven't tried out the console, or are just xbox fanboys.

ewok Nintendo was at its best with Mario, you cant beat it. I'd like to see more Mario

I agree they need to make more Mario games like Mario cart and super Mario bros. Mario was what made Nintendo big in the first place.

ME0W Isn't Battlefield doing this too? Nintendo should take the hint.

I didn't know that Battlefield was on Wii U to begin with.
