Before I start this topic I'm thinking of having one topic with just all the "Wii U news" posted in it so the board won't be cluttered with a bunch of topics with no posts in them. Comments?
I saw this yesterday but I'm not sure who is keeping up with some of this news so I'm posting it here. This is from the Official EA Privacy Policy on their site.
3. Wii U
If you sign up to play EA games through a Nintendo Wii U console, your Nintendo account information will be provided to EA so that we can establish an Origin Account for you. You need an Origin Account to play EA’s titles online. By signing up to play EA’s titles, you agree that limited user account information can be transferred to EA. Information transferred to EA includes your Mii information, email address, Nintendo Network ID, friend list, country, language and date of birth but does not include credit card number or other financial account information.

It doesn't seem that much different than what we had to do to play MoH:H2 online. There might be some sort of catch but I'm not experienced in their Origin setup.
