EA wishes it backed Wii more

The CEO of EA John Riccitiello has expressed feelings that EA should have supported Wii more to The San Jose Mercury News:

"One thing that's different is we typically figured out who the market leader was going to be before the start of the cycle and bet with our development resources on that platform... We made the wrong call there [by betting on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360], which made this transition harder than it would otherwise be. But now we're catching up, and I think we're fine... We've got some incredibly innovative Wii titles, incredibly innovative DS titles coming. And so I think that issue's sort of behind us."

EA is going to increase it's Wii support. This is not the first time EA has felt they should have supported the Wii more. Both the number and quality of there games have been increasing.
