EA's Wii sports games (aside from Tiger Woods) flopped because they were terrible. That whole "stylized" idea was embarassing. If people recall, Madden 07 and 08, were on pretty equal standing with the HD versions ratings wise. The motion controls were good, online play was present. The 2009 came. The "All-Play" idea came. Features were removed. NBA Live 09 All-Play is the worst NBA game I have ever played, they managed to make the game worse than Live 08. As for Madden, less and less effort was given as each yearly installment came.
Then the Wii U comes out and EA has a powerful, HD system from Nintendo to work with, and they abandon them. Disgraceful.
