Ajan kanssa monet julkaisijat ja studiot ovat löytäneet tiensä Nintendo Switchille aina Blizzardia ja Bethesdaa myöten. Electronic Arts kuitenkin puuttuu lähes tyystin joukosta.
Tätä analyytikko Jeffrey A. Cohen kysyikin taannoisessa EA:n talouskatsauksessa. Toimitusjohtaja Andrew Wilsonin mukaan EA ei aio lähiaikoina olla aktiivinen Switchillä. Hänen mukaansa Switchin hankkineilla on myös joko PS4 tai Xbox One, ja että he pelaavat EA:n pelinsä mieluummin jollain muulla alustalla kuin Switchillä.
"We have a lot of data that would suggest a great many Switch owners also own a PlayStation 4 or an Xbox One or a PC and very often choose to play the games that we make on those platforms even though they have a Switch and they enjoy a lot of great content on the Switch. And so there's always an evaluation process that goes on a case-by-case basis. And I wouldn't say that The Sims would never go to the Switch, but I think we're doing really, really well attracting Sims players. As we said, we did the promotion in the last couple of months and brought in 7 million new Sims players that we expect will engage in that community on a platform that is really tailored to user-generated content, creativity and customization."
