::::For flags it should go okay to simply use the USA flag because of lack of alternatives. We should only change it when we keep the letters. We could use the USA flag, the Japanese flag, the Flag of Europe and the Flag of Australia for most of our stuff. I think this is also too trivial for a proposal. Anybody opposing? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 13:24, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

:::Cobold: I'm not sure how familiar you are with the Nintendo of America licensing, but their headquarters are in Washington (or were... I don't think they've moved).  Washington (the state) shares a border with Canada, but the important part is that Nintendo of America operates out of the United States of America, and thus the flag is even more fitting.  I'm not sure how they do the French translation for Quebec and other French-speaking areas of Canada, though.  Perhaps that also is done in Washington? {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 16:29, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

::::I know that Nintendo of Europe is seated in Germany, though I still don't think we should put a Germany flag there. There's a handy Europe flag, after all. ;) - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 07:00, 28 August 2008 (EDT)
