This has me a little worried b/c the new animations and gang tackling EA has been hyping for the 360 version are nowhere to be found. At least...I can't seem to see anything different about this one. I was holding out hope that they would make it into the Wii version.

Can anyone speak French?

It got an 8.0

Better than the IGN one even. This has me really pumped. Here's my favorite line from the review: "You really shouldn't be considering anything but the Wii version if one of Nintendo's sold-out machines is nearby..."

Cube controller all the way. Although, I wonder if techniques like wavedashing will be easier or more difficult with the wiimote and nunchuk?

As for the IGN podcast, the guys took a reader's question regarding NHL for the Wii. Matt pretty much said it was going to happen, but it was kind of vague as to whether he was referring to this year or next year. Bozon went on to say that EA was bringing a lot of stuff that they couldn't talk about yet. This has me really excited. The only thing I'm worried about is NCAA 08. If it's coming to Wii, it seems like they would have to make an announcement before E3. The game is scheduled to release on July 17 for the other platforms. E3 is July 11-13...could they really announce the game then and release it by the 17th. I suppose they could always release the Wii version a couple weeks later.

where in the world did you hear this? One every one knows Ea releases all its sports game on all platforms. Two if you would just stick to gamespot, you would know that they are all coming to the Wii. ( except Nascar, im not so sure about that 1)

Dude...what have you been reading? The only EA Sports games confirmed for Wii right now are Tiger Woods, NBA Live, and Madden. NOTHING has been said about NCAA, NHL, Nascar, or the college baseball/basketball games.

[QUOTE="jfrancis04"]

[QUOTE="chris3116"]Could you ask them about NHL too? There's no Wii version as well. kieran88

I actually already sent an e-mail; however, I did mention ask about bringing their "entire sports lineup" to Wii.

lol you actualy think this will make a difference?

Not really...Not one e-mail by itself anyway. But if some of the other 8 million Wii owners sent an e-mail it might. Hey, it's not going to hurt!

I was just looking around on the EA Sports site when I saw that (in addition to 360 and PS3) NCAA 08 is coming to both the PS2 and XBOX while Nascar 08 is coming to the PS2. Why in the world aren't these games coming to Wii? Even though the Wii has seen so many crappy ports, I don't think I would mind if they simply ported these games over to Wii...even if they didn't give them the "Madden" treatment.

If NCAA is coming to PS2 and XBOX and Nascar to PS2, why the heck aren't they coming out for Wii? Clearly, they can't use the Wii's lesser graphical capibilities as an excuse. I'm almost certain the Wii would sell more copies than XBOX and probably more than PS2 as well. With the success of Madden I can't figure out why these games aren't coming to Wii.

I actually sent EA a very respectful e-mail thanking them for all of their Wii support, in addition to asking why the entire sports lineup isn't coming to Wii. I doubt I will hear anything, but I will be sure to post it if I do.
