EA conference call - core titles coming to Wii, big support coming to Wii with 50% of title count, EA Sports Tennis is Wii-exclusive 'initially', and EA looking to rival Nintendo quality
All of these quotes come from EA CEO John Riccitiello during EA’s conference call…
“Gross profit in all three labels”–EA Sims/Play, EA Sports and EA Games–”looks strong in the coming year.” EA CEO
“Wii is the market leader–they’re getting half of our emphasis in terms of title count.”
We’re launching Tennis initially Wii-only.”
“(we) will rival Nintendo in terms of quality (with MotionPlus tech helping).”
“We’re bringing core intellectual property to the Wii.”
“You live, you learn you adjust and improve. This year’s title slate (of Wii games) is a significant improvement from last year.”
EA Wii market share - five percent revenue growth, no market share growth (paraphrased)
