From http://www.nintendo.com/corp/jobs/local.html:

Redmond, WA

Provide input regarding localization game content; write, proof, and edit game text, game scripts, instruction manuals, package copy and game summaries; test and evaluate game and product and make recommendations regarding design and content; monitors the progress of Nintendo and licensed products; assists other NOA departments with videotaping game play and taking screen shots, demonstrating games and participating in interviews.

I'd guessing the unspoken skill addition to this would be some knowledge of the Japanese language.

And hey if you want to apply, knock yourself out. The more people in the game industry I know, the more people I'll be able to tap when I start up my own company in a few years. ^_^
