“Our U.S. office mainly works to efficiently release the Japanese titles that Level-5 has created overseas and they are involved in production and distribution in the overseas territories. With Ni no Kuni, they are helping bring it to the overseas markets and potentially with other titles. In the future, we would potentially like to develop title overseas where Level-5 International America is taking the lead on developing for the overseas market.” - Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino

Sounds like a smart plan to me. Have the team work on localizations first, then move onto creating some new content. Let's hope the plan pans out!
