Should Nintendo trust EA again?

EA has had an interesting relationship with Nintendo over the years going all the way back to the 8-bit era on the NES. There have been many games released on many consoles. From the NES to the Wii there has been a healthy amount of games published by EA to appear on each console. No less was expected when former EA boss John Riccitiello when on stage during Nintendo's 2011 E3 press conference to pledge an "unprecedented relationship" with Nintendo. Apparently the "unprecedented" part meant to abandon the Wii U with Need For Speed:Most Wanted U being the last major EA game to be published by EA on the console. After that the floodgates opened and pretty much all 3rd-party support left the Wii U. EA has made overtures to Nintendo that they would like to repair that business relationship. Should Nintendo trust EA? Let's examine.
