I don't ... you can't call cheaper rates for higher volume business partners as "being paid".  If you buy a 2-pack of a product that's cheaper than buying 2 single packs, you haven't "been paid" the difference.  Please don't try to change definitions to suit your argument.  If you want to say that Nintendo simply doesn't negotiate with third-party publishers then just say it.

You can't call being paid profits from online sub-fees... "being paid"? I mean, sure, maybe getting publishing discouts is a valid claim about not being paid...

A. Link?  I haven't heard of this before.

B. You're telling me Bethesda gets a cut of online fees for Skyrim?  2k for Borderlands?  Prove this to me.
