The 300,000-square-foot-building, which houses about 650 employees — roughly half the company's Washington staff — is a low-slung, four-story structure that replaces one of the company's other three buildings constructed in the early 1980s. It's on a 10-acre site on the Nintendo campus, just west of State Route 520.
Most of Nintendo's games are created in Japan; the Redmond headquarters provides corporate support, including marketing and sales. The company also "localizes" its games in Redmond; that is, it makes sure the jokes will translate well to an American audience.

while is the article is interesting, I am having problems to understand the bolded part. Nintendo has more than 1200 employees in washington only? Doing what?
Yeah, the second bolded part, but then I wonder, (wikipedia) why retro has only about 60 (wikipedia), the linkedIn shows from 51 to 200. employees?
