this guy needs to realise that Nintendo have actually released the same amount of core titles that they did for GameCube in a quicker fashion. Also he says Metroid was 'throwing a bone' where Nintendo have a dedicated team to Metroid titles (SPD PG1 I think it is) and that Other M has been on the boiler since 2007.
Here's a better way to look at it.. Nintendo have five MAJOR development teams which all fall under the EAD umbrella, here is what they are:
EAD1 - Mario Kart, Starfox, Pikmin team (they are currently working on Wii Fit Plus and Pikmin 3)
EAD2 - Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Music, Animal Crossing team (currently working on Wii Vitality)
EAD3 - The Zelda Team
EAD4 - New Super Mario Bros, Band Brothers, all portable Mario titles (currently working on NSMBWii)
EAD Tokyo - The 3D Mario team
So out of the five major teams at Nintendo, one is dedicated to Zelda, one is dedicated to 3D Mario titles and one is mostly dedicated to the Wii Series. Another is mostly involved with 2D Mario platformers and the other team seems to be dedicated to bridge titles such as Mario Kart Wii.
On top of that, they're working on bringing cult classics like Sin and Punishment 2 to fans and continue to release Fire Emblem titles, of which the sales aren't that great.
I didn't read the entire article so if he mentioned this point then I'm sorry but if he really had a beef with NoA then he wouldn't have mentioned any of this bullshit and just complained about the lack of localisation of FFIV and Trace Memory and Disaster, These are genuine negatives towards NoA.
Pretty ridiculous arguments and to those who say he raises some good points musn't have actually thought about it.
