I must have missed this...?

'Microsoft even took steps to expand Call of Duty to non-Microsoft platforms. On the day of the merger's announcement, Microsoft called the head of Nintendo North America, Doug Bowser, and Nintendo's lead for partnerships, Steve Singer, to discuss a partnership to bring Call of Duty to the Switch. (Dkt. No. 282, 6/22/23 Tr. (Bond) at 167:24-169:18.) Those discussions led to an inked deal to bring Call of Duty to the Switch. All of this conduct is inconsistent with an intent to foreclose"

So Microsoft intended to bring Call of Duty to Switch before any regulator even got involved?

So Nintendo didn't get a deal thanks to regulators, they got a deal simply because Microsoft wanted to give them one?

And the deals with the Cloud Companies are still only thanks to the European Commission, Lol.
