Just shut the hell up already before you're banned for trolling. Jesus you really fucked this thread up didn't you? This is why we can't have nice things.

Anyway...
Interesting.
40,000 square meters is fairly big too.

OK, this kind of response tells me that you are a nintendo fanboy, and you don't like that I said something 'bad' about Nintendo, so now you're getting all flustered and throwing out swear words, you're likely to get banned with that sought of attitude.
If you don't like my opinion (popular one at that), then grow up, respond with some integrity or don't respond at all, but you come off as very childish when you act the way you are now.

Punch-Out Wii is confirmed for the US. Disaster was never confirmed for the US. It was listed as in development by NoA, but from when the game re-emerged as complete onwards, NoA has never said they'd bring it over.
Notwithstanding that, you're correct--most of the potentially good titles in development by Nintendo are not confirmed for the US. One might say that talking about Nintendo in Japan is not all that relevant. Of course, this is a topic about NCL opening a new R&D facility, so why people felt that complaining about Nintendo of America was relevant is beyond me.

I'm more optimistic that this is the makings of an actual expansion, even if old locations are abandoned eventually. If the new sites combined don't at least equal the old sites, there'd be no point in making a move at all. Nintendo isn't strapped for cash. They can well afford to expand.Dan said:

Well, that was Nikkei suggested, it's not a fact yet, It would be nice if it were a total new R&D studio.

If you're devoted enough to complain about the output, you're certainly devoted enough to get imports up and running on your Wii. Playing only what you can get in your local Wal-Mart is pretty mainstream. I'm not going to defend NOA, their record speaks for itself, but instead of getting all worked up over it just handle your business.
I'm more offended that Rhythm Tengoku is STILL not out here, but importing made that a non-issue for me a long time ago. Besides, if you miss out on Tatsu vs. Cap the only one you're hurting is yourself.

all of your posts in this thread have been chock-full of useful constructive information. we really appreciate your insight. if it weren't for you, we would never have known the error of Nintendo's ways! I am very glad I, too, can curse the upcoming 2009 release calender of Nintendo's games.

Fuck, aren't you defensive? He asked you to stop trolling and you are accusing him of being a fanboy?

Did mommy forget to give you a lift into school today, son?
Junior, don't bother telling people what and won't may or may not get them banned, no need to be a backseat mod and a frontseat troll.
Back away dude. You know you are in the wrong with your posting, there's a reason why pretty much everyone is taking the piss.
On topic, I've always wondered why Nintendo didn't build up R and D here in the UK, it would make more sense in these climates with the UK's bigger spending on games than old. I wonder what changes, if any, this will bring to the local market. Nintendo have steadily improved over the years with their UK releases, it's been getting better.

what do you think the purpose of this topic is?
Stumpokapow said:
Not to make off topic comments on other peoples comments, by chance? Although by looking at all these posts, you wouldn't know it. Look, you guys don't like my opinion, fine, but don't act like children, just accept it and move on, because it's very immature what you're doing now.

okay but my question wasn't "what do you think the purpose of the topic isn't?" it was "what do you think the purpose of the topic is?"

Son, you are double posting again. You are adding to a great list of fuck ups you have made in this thread. Stop, seriously.
You are also helping ruin this topic by not only trolling, you are keeping people away from discussing the possible implications of the facts reported in the article.
Mind kindly fucking off?
Boneapart said:
Actually, your opinion is neither here nor there to me. I find it immensely funny that you chose an image from Heavenly Sword as your avatar given the content of your rant.
In either case, you are on the short end of a quickly burning fuse so you might as well just swallow your pride and look for another day to pick a battle.
EDIT: Took longer than I expected!
Well, things seem to only get more and more interesting on the Nintendo front of things. One can only imagine what this will all mean for their development process if everyone's going to all be in the same building. The only thing I'm wondering about though is how EAD Tokyo wasn't mentioned in terms of the three buildings and branches of Nintendo in that article. (unless I missed it, in that case, sorry. Reading without glasses on sucks. :lol)

Damn it, mods. Stop being so efficient. I just noticed this topic and was reading through to see how utterly foolish he could become. *sigh*
This is why we can't have fun things.
ON-TOPIC: Great news for Nintendo. So, this means they're hiring, yeah? That's awesome. Nice to be them. Hiring during a worldwide economic crisis.

I think part of it is that NCL (Japan) does not get much leeway to NOA or NOE for that sort of stuff. Part of it is that NCL got burned very heavily by acquiring / opening studios in the N64 period and having them be totally useless (Ambrella, Clever Trick, Saru Brunei, Param) or partially useless (NdCube, Brownie Brown). Even the "success stories" like NST are pretty janky.
They seem to have granted NoA and NoE some discretionary funds for publishing though. NoA did Crosswords DS and the Mystery Case Files game, and NoE did Wii Chess. Sure, these aren't major hits and you're not going to see anyone say that's quality support relative to the size of both regional subsidiaries, but it's... something

If I were to hazard a guess I'd say it's because Nintendo prefers to have direct control over any game it publishes. I don't know if you've noticed, but Nintendo's foreign subsidiaries have extremely limited autonomy. If Nintendo were to become more active in expanding their overseas offices they'd most certainly have to give their subsidiaries more freedom to operate independently without direct approval from NCL.
