EA Sports' Peter Moore On The Struggle Of Selling Sports Games To Wii Owners N4G
Wii News from N4G | NCAA Football 09
Wii - NCAA Football 09 - EA Sports' Peter Moore On The Struggle Of Selling Sports Games To Wii Owners There seems to be a problem when the latest "Madden" sells more than two million copies on PS3, Xbox 360 and PS2 combined in the U.S. in August this year - and just a little over 100,000 on the Wii according to sales-tracker NPD.

It's even more noticeable if you compare them to the covers of the same titles released on other platforms.

When we sat down with EA Sports chief Peter Moore last week, we asked him why there are grinning athletes on the box art of their Wii-only sports titles."
