But they publish the games no? So can't Nintendo intervene, put their foot down and demand better quality control? |
I know that Nintendo, Game Freak and Creatures all hold equal shares in the Pokémon Company. So they all have equal say.
Personally I think that each have their own restrictions, like Nintendo can’t tell Game Freak how to make their game. Game Freak has to allow Nintendo to publish when their release is set (no delays). Creatures has full power over the trading card game and has some say in how the games are (story wise).
Stuff like that, but I have no clue.
Given that Scarlet/Violet and Sword/Shield were rather lackluster in presentation I think that Nintendo does now have a say to ensure quality control.
