From some old online associates of mine, that tends to be their stock response to people indicating interest in work (try an education at DigiPen). Likely some sort of kickback going on there.
Anyway, it is true that for all non-Japanese, your best bet is going to Austin and pestering Retro. Nintendo Software Technology has been a negligible presence since Metroid Prime Hunters.

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
