I could see these 2 being acquired even though they basically work exclusively with Nintendo already just to ensure that they can't be taken away, similarly to why I think Sony finally acquired Insomniac recently, to make sure they don't risk not getting Spider-Man 2 in case anyone else buys them during this whole dev buying spree.

Platinum Games - I don't necessarily want to see PG get acquired by anyone, but should it ever happen Nintendo is definitely the best fit for them and gains the most from it. They're the most frequent collaborator with them and seem to have a great relationship, and while Sony and Microsoft usually get these types of games because they have full third party support, Nintendo doesn't so it works out for both of them. PG, whose games more often than not don't sell too well, gets secured funding to make whatever they want and Nintendo can continue to fill a crucial gap missing in their library.
