传闻EA欲说服任天堂在Wii U上独占使用Origin

传闻称,EA正在与任天堂谈判,将其数字化配送服务Origin带到Wii U上。

这个消息来自于一向可靠的WiiUGo网站,该网站声称这则曝料是由任天堂新主机的一位网络工程师泄露出来的:任天堂和EA正在谈判。EA正在帮助任天堂建设Wii U的在线服务已经是公开的秘密了。它将提供语音视频聊天的支持,排行榜,以及可以显示细节内容朋友列表——告知你谁上线了以及他们正在玩哪些游戏。这个服务目的是向厂商提供较Xbox Live更具灵活性的在线平台

据这位相关人士介绍,EA希望增加其在线平台的用户群,而任天堂则可以以此为契机逐渐稳固与欧美玩家之间的关系。另外,Valve也对把Steam搞到Wii U上很感兴趣,但是“EA正积极说服任天堂在Wii U上独占使用Origin,这样他们可以获得较Steam更多的竞争优势”。

目前仍不清楚如何使Wii U上的Origin跟PC上的Origin之间有任何差异化。

EA is in talks with Nintendo to bring its digital distribution service, Origin, to the Wii U, a new rumour report claims.

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?
