Eight EA Sports games Wii-bound

Peter Moore, the former vice president of Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business division, and now president of EA Sports, started his personal blog around a month ago, and he seems to be getting the hang of it.

Today he used the platform to tell the world that eight Wii games were currently in development at EA Sports. He explained, "[This is] testament both to the global impact of that console currently in the global marketplace, as well as to our desire to attract more consumers to experience EA Sports games, no matter what their experience playing games nor their prowess with a traditional controller."

He also answered a variety of questions that he'd been asked by various people, and stated that an announcement about some new EA sports intellectual property that would be coming in about two months. "I'm encouraged by the interest and excitement," he said. "As I've said many times over the past few months, as EA Sports looks to expand our brand and capture new audiences, developing new intellectual property--such as Facebreaker and future unlicensed titles--will be a key component of that strategy."
