I'm really baffled why Nintendo can't/won't take on BRIC countries well. You would think that they'd have an advantage being a lower-priced competitor with solid portable option

BRIC countries aren't big gaming markets though. India and Brazil are small, and China has too many rules and regulations. The only country from those 4 which could potentially be a big market is Russia, but right now their economy isn't doing too well. 

They aren't big markets yet, but they definitely have the potential to become some of the biggest markets. If they do become big gaming markets then whoever has built up their reputation in that area the best will have a huge nostalgia advantage over everyone else (look at Sony in Europe).

That's a really good point actually. Based on their current strategies though, Nintendo and Microsoft will suffer most from this since they only focus on the biggest markets.
