They aren't the company that all publishers should aspire to be. They aren't some bastion of quality and creativity not seen anywhere else. They're one company, among many, better than some, lesser than others, and people really need to stop putting them on a pedastal.

Lesser than others? Who has a better résumé than Nintendo in gaming?

Not who you asked, but my opinion? Capcom, SNK, Namco, Sega, Atlus, and now Platinum are all companies I'd all put well over Nintendo in a heartbeat.
Obviously some of those like Capcom have seen far, FAR better days... Or really, I'd argue all but Atlus and Platinum have, but if you ask me... Nintendo never truly recovered from the commercial failure of the Gamecube. While their profitability may have gone up, their quality and general value proposition has absolutely plummeted. Perhaps as a direct result.

My question was not opinion based. I actually wanted to know if some other company has actually achieved a greater status than Nintendo in the gaming industry. They're also not just one company in the land of many... This is not an opinion, but a fact based on many different factors.

It may not depend on opinion, but it does depend on perspective.
Still, by virtually every measure, Nintendo is the largest, most ubiquitous name in gaming. It's also a very different company than any of them, and not always in the good ways.
I believe in honesty, civility, generosity, practicality, and impartiality.
