So basically Nin goes ahead and continues to create Pokemon games like usual on either new Nin devices or non PS devices and PS collects 66% of the profits for doing absolutely nothing? That's an even better deal for PS and way less work.

Switch is using a mobile chip you say? Well luckily PS4 is using a mobile chip as well. X4 in 2020 you say? What about Ryzen 9820u SuperTeraFlopaLastaRippa APU in 2020 that has 8hr battery life, all for only $300?

Does that mean that Microsoft gets money from the two Donkey Kong Country games that Rare makes? No, it doesn't because Nintendo owns the name and all of the characters in the series.

Well if MS owns Rare and Rare licenses DKC from Nin, then yes, MS gets all if not a portion of the profits that Rare would keep, and Nin gets whatever their licensing fee is and possibly a percentage of the profits on top, depending on how the deal is arranged. Just because you own the right to something doesn't mean you always gain all profits from it. I have the right to free speech, but I don't profit off of every other person who speaks freely, yet I do 'profit' to some degree.
