Agreed, although I do think buying small talented dev teams could be a successful idea. |
If they're cheap, sure. Don't expect any purchases much bigger than Monolith (As in, small AA teams), because it just isn't Nintendo's MO.
People, Nintendo isn't financially dominating the industry by acting like this, and buying up companies because golly gee, they have a lot of money and why not spend it? They got where they are -- absolute and total financial domination, anyone who would like to claim otherwise will be eviscerated by empirical evidence -- by being careful, precise, conservative, and financially ruthless.
They did not get where they are by spending tons of money and bragging about how much money they spend. Don't expect that to change now.
