Dear Reader:
EA employee badmouthing Wii U on Twitter - System is crap, Nintendo should have 'pulled a SEGA'
The following comments come from Bob Summerwill Senior SE and Architect, EA Sports.
@shanselman The WiiU is crap.Less powerful than an XBOX360.Poor online/store.Weird tablet.Nintendo are walking dead at this point.

@shanselman Nintendo are still operating like it's 1990.They should have "done a Sega" and offered Mario/Zelda as PS4/Durango exclusives.

@shanselman Instead they make this awful console, and this ... nintendo.com/wiiu/downloads….Just stop it!Just make great games!

@shanselman It is an utterly intentional decision to focus our resources on markets which actually matter ... like mobile, and Gen4.

@shanselman One more :-). Nintendo platforms have always been very poor revenue-wise for third parties.Only Mario and Zelda make money.

@freebsdgirl @shanselman We're stuck with first-party stores on most platforms anyway.What's the alternative on PC?Paying MS or Valve?

Very professional stuff coming out of that Twitter. I wonder if EA is going to say anything about this.
