Western studio and Nintendo? Haha ... nope.

Back when Nintendo was at least somewhat in touch with the West... 


Retro Studios is all Howard Lincoln.

Iwata and the successive Nintendo management probably would've ditched Retro if they could have but Nintendo had invested too much into the studio to simply jettison them. If Retro wasn't a start up that Nintendo themselves financed, but was more like an existing studio that they simply had a partnership with (ala Factor 5 or Silicon Knights), I have no doubt Retro would've been kicked to the curb by now too, lol.
