More details on the Wii U version of FIFA 13 have emerged. While some fans will be disappointed to learn that the game is closer to FIFA 12 rather than this year’s release, it sounds like EA Sports is putting together a competent package.

Read on below for more controller and gameplay details along with other information.

– Based on EA Sports’ current rendering and physics engine
– Game is more tied to FIFA 12 than the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of FIFA 13 (you won’t find first-touch controls or curving runs here)
– Can be played with the GamePad or Pro controller
– GamePad touchscreen used to create a complimentary experience that is less dependent on twitch skills
– Producer Matt Prior: “If your dad can use a mobile phone, then he can play FIFA.”
– Co-op mode included
– This allows one player to use the touchscreen while another player is controlling the action on the television with another controller
– On the touchscreen’s tab-based interface, you have several options unavailable to the player using the standard controller
– Make substitutions on the fly, tweak team strategy in real time, check out interactive game statistics, create man-marking assignments, watch the same gameplay stream as the television, or dictate off-ball behavior of your team’s players with the manager central tab
– This interactive radar gives you a bird’s eye view of the action and allows you to send players on runs with the swipe of a finger
– Can use if playing alone on the GamePad
– During solo play, can hold the GamePad up and use it as a touchscreen as a window onto the field during free kicks
– This lets you survey the field, line up kicks, and put the spin on ball more effectively
– New shooting mechanic: shoot by pressing in the left analog stick or shake the controller
– Once you do so an image of the goal appears on the touchscreen and you can point exactly where you want to shoot
– Halftime talk with players allows you to praise, motivate, or criticize individuals or the entire roster
– Players will react positively or negatively depending on whether or not your opinion rings of truth
– Calling out a star defender who has marked well and won several balls won’t sit well with him
– If he’s having an off-day a pep talk may be just the motivation he needs to regain his form

Ngmoco CEO Neil Young gave a simple response when asked if he considers Nintendo to be a competitor. He said, “No … Well… no.”

Young’s company has been publishing iOS and Android titles for several years now. It’s these types of releases that are considered to be a threat to the dedicated handheld gaming business.

Young believes that the success of smartphones will impact the market that dedicated handhelds currently maintain:
