Earlier in the week, EA announced it was not developing any games for the Wii U console.
This weekend, an EA Sport's Canada developer tweeted that the console is "crap" and that Nintendo should quit making hardware.
Bob Summerwill, a senior software engineer, tweeted (since deleted): "The Wii U is crap. Less powerful than an Xbox 360. Poor online/store. Weird tablet. Nintendo are walking dead at this point."
While the first tweet was harsh enough, the engineer continued: "Nintendo are still operating like it's 1990. Instead [of licensing their hit games for other consoles], they make this awful console."
Why did EA stop developing for the Wii U: "It is an utterly intentional decision to focus our resources on markets which actually matter."
