EA finally realized that re-releasing DLC non stop was not gonna generate new sales.

I don't think they realized anything. I worked for them for 13 years. I think they are likely looking at a strategy to bring archived games with low hardware requirements to new platforms that can run them.

For example, I worked on NBA and Madden Mobile. These were ps3 games that were ported.

It's a good strategy. Why start from scratch when you can just port existing titles that had good sales.
