When I received a report from the U.S. that they sold 1 million Pokémon Diamond & Pearl already, I asked them, "why did you sell only 10,000 Brain Age last week, when Europe sold through 30,000?" This is a typical example of how I communicate with our people in the U.S.

Nintendo is funny. Miyamoto goes around kicking random studios into shape, Iwata goes around flashing his CEO card. Heh NCL could literally jump in any time and do whatever anyway lol.

I see Iwata has received the traditional Nintendo pimp cane and golden pimp cup from Yamauchi, having long been tradition since the company's love hotel days.

It'd be nice to see Nintendo of America readvertising Brain Age - it's really underperforming compared to everywhere else.

They used to but they've stopped because Iwata always gives the same reply, 'Zelda doesn't sell because we killed gaming in Japan', finishing with a hearty laugh.

Too bad the colonel/Guybrush don't post here anymore (although I'm sure some people at NoE still lurk here).

I would really like them to officially explain why they hate us so much.

We buy your consoles and portables, we break records in software purchasing, we get our sisters, wifes and mothers to play your games, and still you don't reward us with realistic release schedules and localised games.

Iwata wasn't the problem, it's Reggie and his "trying to understand" the franchise.

The selling point of the DS is mind games, the selling point of the Wii is motion games. Pretty different.

Aren't there only a couple "mind games" on the NDS? It's got a bunch of puppies and plumbers and pocket monsters too.

DS is meant to be interacted with like a book. The Wii is meant to be interacted with like either a TV remote or the handle of a sword/tennis racket/billy club/pimp cane. Thus one gets "writing" type games and the other gets Wii Sports.

They're probably focusing on the English Version of Brain Age 2 and the third game for the DS. Honestly, there won't be any Brain Age games on the Wii till we see a third game - I cant see them diverting the sequel to the Wii, at least not now.

Questioning why 1 title did poor in one area of the world where the same did better elsewhere is a poor thing to ask about.

It's NOT a "Golden Pimp Cup" it's a "Golden Gem Encrusted Pimp Chalice", I should Bitch Slap you for making that inexcusable error:)
