The Nintendo that bought Monolith Soft is not Nintendo of America. They're the only branch that doesn't release their games.
Of course, I maintain it's still pretty silly to hate on a company that much because they didn't release one game, however good. I don't hate Square forever because they didn't release Chrono Trigger (among others) here for over a decade, for instance.
And yes, Xenoblade *is* awesome.
