Retro Studios is NOA? I thought it was a 2nd party, hence the seperate company title?
But if that's true, that NOA is responsible for half of Metroid Prime's content and all of it's coding and programing then good lord they've come along way from translating...
DJ, the freedom that the article is talking about and that i'm talking about is freedom in marketing decisions and content. Right now, NCL decides the marketing campaigns for America and Europe. Hiring outsourced crews but designing the storyboards and overall scope of the projects. Those desicions need to be made by NOA for America, and NCL for Japan.
