Where do you think these profits go?

Answer: Investments, specially now that they need to increse their powerhouse as developing is getting more complex.

Expanding the company: creating more studios to allocate new employees.

Expanding the brand: releasing new stores across the globe, thematic parks, movies, etc...

Everything that I listed you could see in the news recently, the only company expanding while everyone were closing studios, firing teams and/or crashing in bankrupcy. So they are not holding all that cash for bragging material.

What I am saying is they are going big bc what are we seeing for now is a huge step, bigger than what they did with BOTW/TOTK and they are not willing to lose part of their business and employees like the others companies, so they are in need for those financial resources

Keeping the core company intact and healthy is admirable, can't deny that, but at least when it comes to the die hard Nin gamers, would they rather that extra money Nin is asking for now go to theme parks, movies, etc, or just more games? Or would those gamers rather have no theme parks, no movies, no extra games (beyond the norm), with lower gaming pricing? Maybe that's poll worthy perhaps?

Why not all of it?

You know i listed that the money will be also used to increase their dev powerhouse right? With 2 open world games coming in the first year, that is a huge increase in content to what we have in Switch's first year and everybody here know that is not a easy task to develop this kind of game in a good state, specially when DK have destructive scenario. We don't know how huge will be MP4 but i confident that they are not taking easy on this also. All of that while upgrading the graphics... what more do you want? Is there any other company delivering these kind of games at this pace? Even if we combine a huge part of the industry we wouldnt get so many notorious and ambitious titles in that period of time

Thematic parks and movies are a great fanservice plus it brings a great visibility to their games. Considering their huge success, I think at this point this divisions are already paying themselves without any help of the gaming division. So it all bows down to the huge spend in development resources that modern gaming brings
