Considering Nintendo makes the majority of its games in Japan and has been making more games in recent years, it's a no-brainer they might have more jobs as translators etc. available. Although, the job description implied that the jobs were project natured, but then again, a lot of the companies hire people for a limited time before hiring them on continous contract (or just keep renewing their limited time contracts).

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

With Nintendo making buckets load of money, they don't have to think "too much" about having a game translated. They could absorb the lose if any.

@Galaki: They could, but that would be bad business and against their model where you're supposed to profit from every investment.
