I've never heard of Cing before, but it doesn't look like Nintendo ever owned them. Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, anyone could have bought them. |
It's not about owning, but Nintendo published their games on the DS and the Wii. That's what their relationship was here and as a result they got games fitting extremely well to the unique features of Nintendos consoles. But NoA decided they were too niche, even though the games made profit before. Finding a different publisher is very difficult, especially for a japanese game studio in america. If the games would've been published, they would've been again a moderate success, resulting in moderate profits. Reggie only wanted the Wii Sports and Mario Karts, not smaller but unique games. Which is a pity, as these unique games define the diversity of a library of a system. I cherish my copy of Another Code R, as I think it is one of the best games of the Wii. Cings demise stings doubly, as a few years later an adventure renessaince happened, something Cing would've fit very well.
