I wasn't aware Monolith Soft was a Nintendo subsidiary. Has it always been so since Monolith Soft's inception or did Nintendo buy them at some point?

Nintendo bought them from Namco back in 2008.

Actually, Nintendo bought Namco in 2008, but stupid japanese government didn't allow the transaction to be completed. So, nintendo got monolith instead (great deal, but monolith + namco would be overkill).

Was actually going to say this, but I figured I just needed to say they were bought. 


Actually it makes a big difference. After reading your previous post I thought Monolith Soft was bought because Xenosaga flopped and they needed a new partner that would invest money on them. This puts the matter under a different light.
