The question for me is, how in the world could they believe that Xenoblade and The Last Story wouldn't sell well enough?

I'm sure they'd sell more than enough to see a healthy profit. (Especially if they just left the Japanese voices and used subtitles.)

Compare  localization effort of Last Story or Xenoblade which are rpg with tons of dialogue lines to Mario game or Wii something. Then compare sales expectations for those two.
