Am I the only one who finds the business and financial side of Nintendo/the games industry as a whole to be super interesting?
Nintendo owning small chunks of companies like Square Enix and Bandai Namco make sense as it helps cement partnerships, but it also means that Nintendo benefits from these companies doing well even when they are publishing games that skips Nintendo’s hardware.
Shout outs to Nintendo Forecast. I really appreciate him having a channel that actually focuses on this kind of stuff.
