Nintendo seem to be focused more on self expansion rather then buying established developers, at least for the time being.

Besides, can you imagine the fallout that would follow if Sony got square enix but Nintendo got dragon quest, anybody (on other sites) that even suggests Nintendo could get SE or any major IP for any reason gets thumbed down so hard that they would be chilling in satin's wine cellar within the hour

Though Team Asano has been a big asset for the Switch so I’m not sure if they’ll be ok just seeing them go to a competitor. Whether Sony will care about Team Asano that’s another thing.

Yea I can see a backlash if Nintendo were to take DQ. It’ll be like Bayonetta 2 coming to Wii U but tenfold. People will complain that the quality of DQ will fall because it’ll be on inferior hardware or some weird excuse.
