This is totally the opposite of what Nintendo actually thinks. It bothers me how so often Reggie says the right thing and expresses the attitude Nintendo SHOULD have but sadly doesn't. It makes me hope that someday the higher-ups in NCL will think "hey the stuff that Reggie guy says always seems to go over well. Maybe we should actually DO that stuff instead of making him look like a liar all the time." They are less arrogant than Sony is thankfully but I'm still not convinced they don't still think they deserve success just because.
The potential in North America thing actually does make sense for some titles like Fire Emblem that would need to be translated into English (I think there's a SNES Fire Emblem for the Japanese launch). But for the most part that's just marketing speak. Though if the really good games are all coming out AFTER March then they probably need to delay the big VC titles for key down times.
With Metroid probably not coming out until at least halfway through 2007 I wager I'll be able to hold out for a Wii long enough for a price cut.
