You've been repeatedly told that Nintendo owns all trademarks. They have the majority control over Pokémon and if the other two companies who have a stake in the Pokémon Company decided to part ways with Nintendo, they'd only hurt themselves while Nintendo would continue Pokémon through another studio. You see, there is no problem for Nintendo to begin with. Pokémon can't be taken away from them.

Well I was told that Nin owned 33%, which technically is wrong, if the other two companies who own the other 66%, are also majority owned by Nin. That would mean that Nin actually owns well over 50%, so they would then own a healthy majority, which would also change the likely outcome if any shares were sold by the other two companies. Arguing over a topic given incomplete information is like trying to play NES being given a DS4. As for owning the rights, that doesn't mean you receive 100% of the profits, they would still be split 3 ways, 33% each. Nin would get the majority of the profits in the end, only because they own most of those other two companies.

Switch is only 3.5 times stronger than ps3, ps4 is a generation ahead ps3 so you are thinking a ps4/5 portable which is almost a generation ahead of Switch with high resolution and way better graphic setting as well as fps will consume the same electric as Switch, sure . $300 for total Switch is fine, you clearly are ignoring what i said. The $300 you said are chip only. where is buttons and analogs? Also, a Switch cart is already enough to play game, download only for multiplayer, can you tell the same with a ps4 disc only? As if bought a ps4 disc without install the data that take 60GB or above is enough already. Lack of storage can be make up by Micro SD card and it is not Vita card that take $120 a 32GB card at launch

PS4 came out over 3 years before Switch though. These new Ryzen chips came out years after X1. Newer tech, better performance and efficiency like Switch right? We've only been using price to point out overall cost so far, yet somehow you take it to mean just the chip, because it fits your argument? You mean multiplayer and DLC is a separate download, even though PS games are constantly put out at a later date with all the DLC and multiplayer included? Just like Doom which has been out long enough that all of it should be on the cart, but can't be. How do you also know that there aren't games that are just too big for the existing carts, or internal storage, that haven't come to Switch for that very reason? So only Nin can use micro SD and PS has no choice but to use proprietary storage? Nin is also red, so just orange I guess?


You are the one who said Ryzen chip only cost $300, you didn't mention the total handheld cost $300 only. No third party are willing to use Switch 32 GB cart, let alone 64 GB or more so your argument is based on nothing. The Ryzen chip came out after X1, X3 (Xavier) also. And you have to remember AAA Western games on ps4 is 100GB or even more, ps4/4 portable can reduce it to 80 GB, yet who is willing to carry a digital only portable with several games that take over 80GB? They have to expand the storage and a small form factor handheld no way can have a very big storage outside Micro SD card. And even efficiency like X1 chip only last 3 hours for AAA games. A ps4/5 portable which is almost a generation ahead Switch with the new chip can cost only $300 as well as 4-5 hours battery life and have ps4 graphic? Wow. Not even the strongest handheld with the newest chip at the moment can do that. You know Sony can do it because you already have it in the different parallel universe, right?
