My biggest fear now is a buyout/acquisition. the company is in a delicated state, with the consoles struggling and a lot of changes going on as of late, but has precious ip that anyone in the industry(and even outside of it) would love to get the hands on. And seriously, i doubt that anyone buying nintendo would make the best use of them, at least for the long days fans...
"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
