Nintendo, Why Won't You Let Me Give You My Money?

I agree with his sentiment but his reasoning seems off. There isn't a chance in hell that those games sell 3.5 times what they did in Japan in NA, that's far too simplistic of an analysis and ignores the differing genres and how much later these localizations are than more Nintendo efforts. I'd take a guess that the best case scenario is something like Fire Emblem with a bit less than twice the sales Japan got. Which is still great, and definitely worth NoA's time, but not the 3.5 he mentions.

Always surprises me to hear someone who has stuck with only one gaming company for so long, just seems like if he loved these kind of games that much he woulda switched over/added to his platform library before now, not like the Gamecube was swimming in JRPGs.

That makes too much sense, there hasnt been a Ninty home console with a good library of JRPGs since SNES
