Over the past several years, Nintendo of America hasn't released many games in the summer. We finally got an answer about it.

Over the past few years, you might have noticed that Nintendo of America avoids releasing games in the summer.

When we interviewed Charlie Scibetta, Nintendo's Senior Director of Corporate Communications, he let us know why that is.
