NCAA Football 10 Benched For Wii

Gamespot has the scoop.

Quote:
"As it turns out, there was a reason that EA didn't mention the title, as the publisher has confirmed for GameSpot that NCAA Football 10 will not see release on the Wii this year. "In the interest of providing our consumers with the best possible college football experience, we are currently evaluating our approach to the NCAA Football franchise on the Wii," the publisher told GameSpot. "As such, we will not be releasing an NCAA Football title in 2009 for the Wii."
Platform: Wii

The Wii versions didn't sell well, so EA has chosen to cut their losses. How exactly is that "lazy"?

I don't care for the "all-play" crap that EA has been putting out for NCAA. The graphics are poor and the gameplay sucks. Just give me a port of the PS2 version with Wii controls and I'll happily buy it.

One reason, well the major reason it doesn't sell well on the Wii is because it's a terrible game. The reason it's a terrible game is because the effort, or lack their of that EA has been putting in certain games.

Also, the reasoning behind the benching of Wii's version of NCAA isn't lack of sales.

I would've voted to never release on the Wii in the first place.

Re: No NCAA 10 for the wii...

It's amusing when people act like they're in EA's board rooms and in the development loop. NCAA sold poorly on the Wii, and given the target demograghic of that system it's not at all surprising that serious sports games as a whole aren't well represented on that system. Also, given that the vast majority of Wii games garner poor cumulative review scores it's obviously folly to expect that all genres of games will work with that control format. Any sports game for that system is going to be dumbed down in a huge way in order to conform to that control scheme.

The Wii is garbage for sports games. There's no need for sports games to come out on that system except maybe Tiger and the Power Pros baseball game.

Maybe if Nintendo would step up to the plate and make a system worth a damn, maybe there would be decent sports titles available for it from not just EA, but 2K as well.
