During EA's Investor Day briefing, EA Studios boss, Patrick Söderlund addressed the much-criticised omission:
"The one thing that we got criticized for was the lack of a single-player campaign", he said. "It was a conscious decision we made due to time and being able to launch the game side-by-side with the movie that came out to get the strongest possible impact."
You have to mention the game's name as well, obviously. Something like this:
- The single-player mode in Star Wars: Battlefront was removed during development because of the theatrical release of The Force Awakens. During EA's Investor Day briefing, EA Studios boss (Patrick Söderlund) addressed this much-criticised omission
:

I noticed some real-life, non-media examples of this trope, such as Space Shuttle missions before the Challenger tragedy. NASA's top priorities were to be safe AND stay on schedule - and these priorities often came into conflict. Should these be added?
Just finished up cleaning up the page along with alphabetizing the entries in each section (save for the Other folder) and leaving a comment for other Tropers to put their examples in the right place.
Also, there's evidence
from a few months ago
that the page quote credited to Miyamoto was, in fact, Wrongfully Attributed. Jason Schreiber of GT Interactive gave a nearly identical line ("A late game is only late until it ships, a bad game is bad forever") when discussing the long development cycle of Unreal in 1998 and a GamePro feature about Blasto from one year earlier states that's an "industry catch phrase."
I'm going to edit the quote description accordingly (or rather, add a note summarizing the above), but I wanted to give everyone a heads up beforehand.
