Those are very good to be honest.

Nintendo seems to be synonymous to the ''family entertainment'' moto.

''Mature'' 3rd party games not so much....

I can see Disney attempting to buy Nintendo some day honestly. Definitely not any time soon, but they definitely seem to go after every family based IP.

If so, Disney would basically have the monopoly to every kid entertainment intellectual properties. Scary and will will most likely come to bear if Iwata does not change Nintendo's trajectory lol

What's to understand? Nintendo is synonmous with family/kids based entertainment. High profile family/kids brands tend to do OK on the system -- Disney, Skylanders, LEGO, Sonic, etc.

Things like Splinter Cell, Watch Dogs, sports sims, GTA, and the like not so much.
