But Mario and Nintnedo's other IP's are so famous worldwide, even more than Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck. That would be a great addition to Disney's current line up of characters. 

I agree about the hardware though, doubt Disney is interested in that part of Nintendo. 

While Mario sure seems ubiquitous, Mickey Mouse is iconic in markets that Nintendo doesn't even bother to attempt to enter...

And given that Disney has pretty much given up entirely on the console market (they're even abandoning Disney Infinity), it seems less likely than ever that they would consider Nintendo a worthwhile investment...

the only market that Mario is not extremely well known and prevalent would probably be large portions of Asia (China?) but that has more to do with the fact that the console game market has been pirated and/or outlawed in that region for many periods of time
