3. Nintendo Switch Is Getting A Totally Unique Game

Not content to disregard the Chinese Super League as unnecessary during his media appearances, Sam Rivera also talked at length about the Nintendo Switch version of FIFA 18. Promising fans of the new console that the Switch game is being taken very seriously, EA's go-to man for interviews said a separate team of developers were working on the title.

Further, the Switch version won't be similar to the 'Gold' packages released on older consoles. No, FIFA 18 on Nintendo's latest hardware will offer a unique experience that's not even the same as PS4, Xbox One or PC released. Finally, a genuinely new FIFA game on Nintendo systems. It's about time.

The graphics won't match up to the big-hitters, but EA are keen to make the most of the Nvidia Maxwell-based Tegra X1 chip available to Switch. Away from the actual look of the game, EA will lean heavily on the idea that players can continue matches on the go by removing Switch from the dock.

This could get interesting.
