EA is among several companies expressing anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2. In a recent earnings call, EA’s CEO, Andrew Wilson, commented on the potential benefits the new console could have by reaching new gaming audiences.

As the release of the Nintendo Switch 2 approaches, excitement builds in the gaming community amidst industry professionals, including former PlayStation head Shuhei Yoshida, who shared his thoughts on the reveal of the Switch 2, and game designer Hideki Kamiya, who voiced dissatisfaction over premature leaks.

With past experiences in mind—such as the Wii U’s disappointing support from third-party developers—both EA and fans are hopeful for a different outcome this time around. Wilson expects titles like Madden and FC to thrive on the upcoming console, contrasting it with the challenges faced during the Wii U era.
