Agreed with the above post. Nintendo's funding help keep both of the development teams in business. Don't let you hate for Nintendo right now cloud your common sense. There are only 2 3rd party companies that are still seperate over there Capcom, and Konami. Everyone has merge with another so these smaller groups would have been gone or lost in a merger. The real point right now has nothing to do with Xenoblade, The Last Story, and Pandora's Tower. The main issue is NOA has no core titles for the NA market right now. In 2011 so far we have gotten Mario Sports Mix, and Wii Play Motion. With Mario Party 9, Mystery Case Files: The Malgrave Incident, and Rhythm Heaven. There are also a new Zelda, and Kirby, but still the types of games are the complete opposite of the type of games that came out last year. If Nintendo had Star Fox, Custom Robo, F-Zero, and Pikmin for this year. No one would be asking for the 3 Japanese games. With those games not coming, and the current lineup we have presented to us. People are like why not give us those games over there. We will take those instead.
Nintendo has really only 3 options.
Make their systems region free so gamers can buy what they want no matter.
Keep their systems region locked, but release every game in every region.
Just be dicks, and don't care at all.
The last option is still given to them because no matter what. People are not going to stop buying your console not matter what they say online.
Microsoft sold a faulty system and people just bought new ones.
Sony sold a overpriced hardware, then a stripped down versions, took options away from people who had it, and finally got hacked and people info stolen. People still are buying PS3.
I highly doubt people will stop buying Nintendo consoles over 3 games that from the beginning. Where only made for one region.
As a gamer, and customer you have 3 options.
Buy a import console if those games are that important to you. "I did!"
Hack your current system to play imports "I did"
Get pissed and don't game on a Nintendo system anymore. I doubt this will happen.
Oh to finally answer the question Reggie is still better than both the other Companies US leaders combined. Would you really want Tretton running Nintendo Of America. Talk about being a stooge.

good points, but u honestly believe that some people wont just say screw Ninty n not buy their products??? By that logic N64 n GC should have done way better. Im not saying alot will do iy, but i know 4 a fact some have

That happens because N64 and GC didn't have enough games that the market as a whole felt were worth buying, not because they were, on principle, pissed at Nintendo for this that or the other thing.
I mean, it's a cynical way of thinking, but it's true. Nintendo could do jack shit here, and we'd piss and moan, but most of us would still buy Skyward Sword and the Wii U. I know i for one would be disappointed, but it wouldn't effect my purchasing habit. If you have the games people like, they'll overlook the niggling issues, even if they're pretty severe. The superiority of Xbox LIVE kept people coming back to the ticking time-bomb that was the early models of the X360, and while Microsoft did make things better for themselves and for users by fixing the 360 as they did, it didn't really hurt them in the short run as consumers kept buying boxes that they knew had a shelf life shorter than a box of Oreos.
