EA is developing games for Wii U but will focus on PS4 and Xbox One; EA Sports titles, Battlefield 4 confirmed for both

Electronic Arts confirmed today that they are in fact developing games for the Wii U, but nevertheless will be focusing primarily on the PS4 and the Xbox One.

“We are building titles for the Nintendo console, but not anywhere near as many as we are for PS or Xbox,” EA’s chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen said today at the Stifel Nicolaus 2013 Internet, Media and Communications Conference.

“I think what the consumer will find is a lot more powerful gameplay with the new boxes that are coming out, and a lot of excitement, but it’ll remain to be seen as to the services associated with those as to how consumers decide which direction they might want to go,” he continued.

EA has said that Madden NFL 25 and FIFA 14 will not be released on Wii U this year, though both titles have been confirmed for the PS4 and Xbox One. Today, EA confirmed those titles, plus NBA Live 14 are Battlefield 4 are headed to Sony and Microsoft’s upcoming consoles.
