Nintendo is in an unconfortable position.
They're making loads and loads of money off of "Casual" Gamers, and have entirely forgotten the people who got them there.
Obviously, no grandmas are gonna show up in that convention, which must've been one of the reasons that prompted Nintendo to opt out..

Couldn't have said it better myself. Still gotta wait a month for Brawl. Localisation my left testicle. It shouldn't be taking nearly 4 months to translate some menus and the short bits of info which come with the trophies. And how long is it gonna take for the "new" FF games to come out here? 2 years? We had to wait months for FF3.
They seem to think Wii Fit and MK Wii coming out here 2 weeks earlier makes up for everything _
