Also, the 3DS has a few EA games, but they are minor. Like Tetris. EA never made a Tetris game for 3DS. There's only two on the system, Tetris Axis from Hudson & Nintendo, and Tetris Ultimate,  from Ubisoft.

The conundrum is that EA still supports the 360 and PS3 with it's yearly sports titles and yet the Wii u and 3DS only saw one version of FIFA (with yearly 3DS versions that were just roster updates) and  Madden with the Wii U versions being based on the year's prior version. The Wii U also go Mass Effect 3 and NFS MW which were relatively legitimate dev efforts but were crippled by marketing decisions. Former by the Mass Effect trilogy releasing earlier that month on every other platform and latter by lack of internal support causing the title to be delayed to that spring.

Partly, this is due to every AAA moving in to becomes service titles in which require DLC to be profitable. Ah, I see. It's a shame how Nintendo doesn't get the "triple A" games on their consoles anymore, due to said consoles being different than their competition. Hopefully, this changes with the NX.
