Also lets remember, Microsoft has 300 billion or so in assets. Nintendo has 18.7 billion or so. Buying a company like Bethesda would mean spending nearly half the value of their company. That's a rather huge risk to take. They could like... maybe afford Capcom at best.

Yeah Nintendo while certainly not being strap for cash and making a ton of money, wouldn't be afford to what MS just did and at best it would of been merger of both companies similar to Bandai and Namco, Koei and Tecmo, or Squaresoft and Enix rather Nintendo buying Bethesda.

Hell Sony's market cap is pretty close to Nintendo's, so I am not even sure if they could have made a move like this either.
