This does not apply to Nintendo of America, which famously does underpay in the Redmond, WA area and well.. I hear has trouble truly attracting talent in the first place.

How much does Nintendo of America really do? It's basically localization and marketing, right? And maybe outreach to third party developers?

I would imagine they're able to underpay due to the allure of working for Nintendo combined with a lack of actual positions.

US tech wages are insanely inflated compared to, well, everywhere.
