Report: Nintendo moving sales team

Hopefully when they move their sales team, it also will pulling along their development teams too to SF!

Man, can there be a bigger culture shock than moving from Redmond, WA, to S.F. or NYC? Those poor, poor people...

I'm with Nin10doFan44... game informer sucks. EGM is a better magazine.

Please move to San Francisco!

No I think Electric Gaming Monthly is better then Game Informer!

Gameinformer is the best video game magazine in the world!!!!!!!!!!! Go GI!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL Reggies office boy!?!?! WTF! that sounds wrong!

two words... Monterrey Nuevo Leon Mexico... well maybe those were more than two... who cares any way? I could be your office boy Mr. Reggie, i will do it for free. i can awser the phone, take your notes and kick some asses for you!!!

NOA will never move its headquarters out of Redmond. The fact of the matter is, Seattle happens to be the closest U.S. continental port from Japan. The whole reason that Nintendo even moved to Redmond from NYC in the first place was to save on shipping costs. Its also the reason why Nintendo's Canadian headquarters are located in Vancouver B.C. Frankly, this article is just talking about moving the marketing division, which really can be loacted anywhere in the U.S.

nintendo should set up a massive base in england like in the north east and get to rural areas or britain!

Actually Nintendo should come to Hartford CT, or New Haven CT. Cause we need better things here in CT.

Screw yall... NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK FTW It would be perfect, Nintendo World in NYC, Nintendo Head Quarters in NYC... Nintendo and New York both begin with "N". Nintendo York....

they need to move a job to my city for me ;)

Screw Chicago go San Francisco, I am going to be a computer animator so i'd like to be close to anything Nintendo., and seriously what do New yorkers or Chicago people have anything to do with technology, nothing TWO WORDS: SILICON VALLEY the bay area has the best HQs in the world-Google, Apple, Microsoft all started here in the Bay Area

Screw NY, go to Chicago

come to ny

I don't know why everyone is high on Nintendo moving near whereone lives... marketing and sales? Hardly the first sector of gaming we think of.

hey nintendo, wanna come down to L.A.?

nintendo is in redmond, which is near sammamish, where i live :)

NINTENDO SHOULD COME TO COLORADO!!!!!

Ahh bother....we houstonians dont get anyone lol

Cool? Ah well. Nothin ever comes here to little ol' Delaware :(

why move, stupid. what they need to do is stock wii's in the stores, i still can't find one, Darn nintendo.

"They were reportedly told to choose between relocating or accepting severance packages by the beginning of next month..." Gully...

Come to texas,evrything´s bigger here

this really wont make any difference

Bad idea moving to San franciso EARTHQUAKES!!

they better move to SF i live there :D

Why move it, why not just make another one?

WOW, WHY DO PEOPLE NOT READ?! A bunch of people have posted their "regrets" that they can't work for Nintendo now, since they are "moving". Number one: this isn't confirmed yet. Number two: it's just ONE DIVISION! Their headquarters will still be there!!!

cool

Yay?

That would be great, and now I can finally get a job working for Nintendo without moving! Party :)

Well this sucks cause I know a lot of people that work for nintendo!! some people on my girlfriend's bowling team for instance!!! don't leave us nintendo!!!

Who cares? It's sales and marketing. Most of the sales and marketing people don't know anything about games anyways. This is pretty lame news.

meh

So ???

Game Informer reported this? A magazine that made it's mark by being the add-on sale shoved down consumers throats with every purchase at Gamestop reports something and Gamespot posts about it... look, if I remember correctly, Game Informer reported in early 2003 that GTA 3 and Vice City will NEVER make it to Microsofts Xbox.... thus, they've lost all credibility with me.

Ok

my gawd no. i live 20 minutes away from NOA. and i can get everything waay cheaper there.

This should a good move for Nintendo.

i believe it is for the best that they change place.

They're moving away from Mr. Gates.

Seattle area is losing too much love. UPS to Atlanta, Boeing to Chicago. Well, Boeing was a giganitc lost for tax money for the state. San Fran and NY are expensive. Nintendo was be making some serious cash with the Wii.

I hope they don't move Nintendo of Canada as well, it's a 20min drive from my place.

Well NOA is located in Redmond (for now) and Nintendo Canada (as laughable as that may be) is located in Richmond, BC, in the same region. Maybe that's part of the move. Ah **** who am I kidding.

If they move to either, they will suffer from high pollutants in the air.

-Hopefully S.F. =D

If I'm not mistaken, the official Nintendo store is in New York city, Right?
