I think that this helps both EA and Nintendo.
Some companies, such as EA and Ubi Soft, seem better than others about getting their games to all three consoles (some even to the PC). But unfortunately in North America, where the PS2s and Xboxes are all that, and EA sells bigger here, I'm guessing, getting a GameCube version to sell as well as the others isn't possible without some added oomph.
After Namco's Soul Calibur II featuring Link selling better than the PS2 and Xbox versions, I guess it doesn't hurt that EA and Nintendo would try to do this. More EA GameCube games selling benefits both Nintendo and EA. Which one it benefits more, I don't know, but definitely a plus for both.
I'm not so sure I would like to see this kind of thing happening too much, but with Mario characters tending to jump a lot, basketball kind of fits.
