Why have Nintendo gone through with this?
If they thought there was a gap for such a game why didn't they take the idea of a Mario-ish Basketball game into their own hands? Hell, they did it with bloody baseball.

Do you acutally get to play as Mario,Lugi and Peach?

Someone with sense.

EA make far more money than anyone else in the games industry, and without their support Nintendo would lose a lot of money.

EA dropped support of the Dreamcast early on in its cycle. Look what happened to it.

Supporting EA, as bad as it sounds, is actually a very positive move.

NBA Steet?

Whats a Steet?

Whoops missed that, but this guy is just talking utter bull!

But i wonder what Mario Kart is classed as?

No driving games? :|

And Pilot Wings is kinda sky diving. Or.. not.. Never mind.

There arent any games like that anyway!

Im not a big fan of EA, they sometimes create some games worth having, but then they create a lot of rubbish (goldeneye 2 for example).

Also me feeling towards sports games dont help them much.

I'm all for it, makes multi format releases different and also shows third partys that Nintendo are there to speak to.

EA cancelling support for the Dreamcast was one of the reason for the downfall of the console.

Nintendo advertise some EA games themselves to help sell them and cut prices nintendo charge to get more games from EA.

Nintendo need EA, losing EA is the worst that could happen. So things like this are great.

No, that's actual fact.
