EA shows interest in Switch and is “very pleased” with how it has sold, but says top-selling games are from Nintendo “by a long shot”

EA has continued to show interest in Switch, though still remains non-committal to the platform. Speaking during a financial results call today, COO Blake Jorgensen said the company is “very pleased” with Switch’s performance up to this point. However, Jorgensen pointed out that third-parties need to stack up against Nintendo’s own games, which have been the top-sellers “by a long shot”.

His full words are below:

“We are always looking and discussing with Nintendo what else we can put on the platform, and as the platform grows, our interest in adding content grows for that platform. But we’re also conscious of the fact that the top-selling titles, by a long shot, are all Nintendo software. Which is fabulous software, but it helps us balance the realities of how big our markets could be there. But trust that we’re looking at that, you will hear more things in the future about what we’re putting on the platform.”

EA also said last August that it was looking at games in its portfolio to potentially support with Switch. Not much has come from that so far though.
