That's according to the usually reliable leak source WiiUGo, which claims it's been tipped off by a network engineer working closely with Nintendo's new console that the platform holder and EA are in talks.
According to the source, EA's looking to increase the userbase of its online platform and Nintendo could see this as an opportunity to build upon its relationship with Western gamers.
Supposedly, Valve is also interested in getting Steam on the platform, but EA is "aggressively persuading Nintendo to go Origin exclusive with the Wii U's online so they can gain a competitive advantage over Steam."
We're not sure what to make of this one. What do you think readers? Would you want to see Origin as the exclusive Wii-U online platform?
