I honestly don't have the faintest belief that Nintendo would ever take the deal. Sure they don't diversify their platforms, but they also have the best cut from their platform.

If Nintendo diversified its titles onto other platforms then they wouldn’t be in a position for an offer to come from Microsoft.
Can you imagine how popular key Nintendo titles would be on PC or under a game pass deal.

None of that matters. They won’t ever sell because of pride. Their culture goes against it on every level. It won’t happen.

This was in 2020 they were thinking this, and it doesn’t seem like Nintendo was interested at all.
Microsoft offered to buy them back in 2000 or something, and got laughed at. Nintendo is not looking to be bought out. Nintendo does things its way and stays in its lane.
