I have long suspected that Reggie views his NA consumers as more casual. They are quick to grab anything with potential casual appeal from Excitbots to to Kirby's three titles to Malgrave Incendent to even Sin & Punishment (which while describe as 'core' is really a very simply arcade shooter at heart). Meanwhile they routinely pass on deeper games like Disaster:DoC, Pikmin 2, The Last Story, etc. Yes, they did Xenoblade - after much protest from fans but still no Pandora's Tower or Fatal Frame 4 or 2.
The only one that doesn't really follow suit (and isn't a Nintendo mainstay) is Samurai Warriors 3 which I suspect NoJ pushed on them.
