It's kind of crazy how much EA has burned Nintendo fans (Nintendo NY crowed reaction)

[Meelow]

So I was watching the Nintendo NY reactions to the Direct, very positive environment, Smash hype was huge.

When the third party sizzle wheel was happening everyone was cheering for all the third party games (including Just Dance) being show off...Other then Fifa, when Fifa was shown all there was was booing.

Like it's kind of insane that went from "unprecedented partnership" to where we are now. I would love if someone sat down with both Nintendo and EA reps and just go straight to the point and ask them what happened.

Isn't FIFA a shitty port for the Switch?

I was there, and nobody cared about anything from EA during the Direct screening. I was surprised at the people cheering for Just Dance. I guess some people within the crowd enjoyed it.

I mean, EA really has not done much for the audience at all for many generations now. And often times when their games come to a Nintendo platform, they're not very good ports, something is missing, or it's just very different altogether.

... its a fifa game, you honestly thing a bunch of people salivating over 30 minutes of smash are going to be into Fifa?

Click to shrink...

Yes.

To be fair, EA's burned everyone on other platforms too. Just slightly less so.

EA has a horrible track record on Nintendo consoles.

No Reaction Threads – To prevent clutter we will lock all reaction threads during E3. A reaction thread is a topic about a hot take or some other personal reaction to anything that did or did not happen during E3. Examples include "Why wasn't the PS5 announced?", "Did Ubisoft just win E3?" & "I can't believe the Walmart Canada leak was completely real, except for Splinter Cell". These sort of topics can be discussed within already existing threads such as the conference threads.
