You're right, the US should be first in everything and focusing on your home country (Japan) first is wrong.

- anonbanker 10y agoLet's analyze the strawman you've brought up. We have a history of Satoru Iwata teaming up with Nintendo of America, to the point of letting them influence design decisions on the hardware they release (look at Prototype Nintendo DS systems at E3 vs. Release). The name "Wii" was a play on the english word "We". Reggie Fils-Aime had his fingerprint on every product marketed between the DS and the 3DS, evident especially in the embrace of "Blue Ocean" strategies from hardware, to software, to marketing (which is why they hired him from Viacom). The US was first in everything, A time that had the highest sales since the original Famicom/NES. It is merely sticking one's head in the sand to not notice and acknowledge the change in direction this new console is leading.
