Actually Nintendo was given its Monolith shares by Namco after Nintendo tried to buy Namco but the Japanese government refused to allow it. That was like 2006 if I recall correctly. 

At the risk of derailing the thread, 

 

THEY REALLY TRIED TO BUY NAMCO!!!!!!!!!ONE!!!!

Do you have a source? 

Actually it was for Bandai, before Namco and Bandai merged. Sorry about that.
