you act like sony walks up to nintento says they want to do this that and the other that nintendo agrees with, then pulls out a cryptic prewritten agreement and says all you have to do is sign here. Agreements take 2 companies. Companies try and get what is best for them, nintendo often go away with thing with other companies. Something in your narative doesn't add up. |
@bold. You have no idea how likely you are there. Nintendo had been working with Sony for years. Sony was manufacturing the sound ships on Nintendo's consoles for two gens that far (NES and SNES). They had a somewhat close relationship and were in talks. When the formal papers (contract) were written, that's when Sony's slimy hands started to show their true colors.
Nintendo is known to never give up the rights to their IPs, it's part of their DNA (historically speaking). So look at my answer to pokoko here for my best answer so far -> http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5585051
