kind of disappointing to see, Nintendo has had such a big influence in the Seattle region, with their American headquarters being there. Things like owning part of that team in a weird way makes it seem like they have more stake in trying to bring their games to the West and/or working hard on their NTSC division

I guess I considered it endearing. kind of saddened to hear this haha

again, just because Nintendo seems to really like that region and its like their American footprint

You would think that this would free up a bunch of cash to actually invest into making more games.  I made a thread awhile back about asking if they should sell the team.  I believe they got a pretty good deal considering they had 55% of a team that was valued at 100m back when they bought it.  The TV deals are driving up the value of the teams right now and I believe they got about a 2 billion dollar TV deal for the Mariners.  They made a pretty damn good profit and hopefully use it to fuel more games.
