Madden 13 on Wii U features touch play-calling, hot routes

4.7
A Wii U version of Madden NFL 13 was briefly detailed at EA's Summer Showcase event today. Developed by EA Tiburon, the game will include many of the same features to be seen in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, including Total Control Passing and the game's improved "read and react" defensive AI. The much-touted Connected Careers mode will also find its way to Wii U, along with commentary by Jim Nantz and Phil Simms.

The Madden 13 Wii U demo at the event demonstrated new touch-screen play-calling methods, player management, and pre-snap adjustments on the GamePad controller. Additionally, players will be able to draw hot routes for their receivers on the controller's screen, not unlike the series' "call your shots" modes on the Wii. Madden 13 will launch with the Wii U later this year.

Aced Heared about this, Wont really make the game any different, but nice add on for the wii u


It could, using the touch screen to move players and kick the ball could be a nice touch.


yeah it would make kicking the ball a lot easier IMO.


Honestly ? i think it would be a hard game to play on a touch console


Yeah, playing a football game on a touch console would be challenging for sure..


It has analog sticks >:( i thought it didn't so that makes it a whole lot better.


Even with analogs it still could be hard
