User blog:Awyman13/Frostbite Twitter Embaresses EA



This morning, the official Frostbite Twitter made numerous tweets aimed at the Wii U as a part of April Fools. If you didnt already know, the Frostbite Engine cannot run on the Wii U and Nintendo and others are well aware of this. EA has since ordered the tweets to be deleted (which they were) but fear not! We have them right here!

"Good news, we have finally fixed and optimized our 'netcode'. Uses quantum entanglement for Zero Latency connections. Exclusively on #WiiU."

- Frostbite Twitter

"Frostbite will power #HalfLife 3, coming out summer 2014! #WiiU exclusive."

- Frostbite Twitter

"Frostbite now runs on the #WiiU since it is the most powerful Gen4 platform, our renderer is now optimized for Mario and Zelda."

- Frostbite Twitter

Oops. They probably should have been more descreet in their prank. EA responded to the Tweets an apology.

"Our apologies to partners @NintendoAmerica & fan @FrostbiteEngine ’s poor attempt at April Fools not condoned by EA : unacceptable/ stupid"

- Peter Moore, EA COO

Happy April 1st!
