Also, Nintendo won't see a huge share of this. Certainly no where near to 50%. Remember, this is Gross Revenue, not Net.

Nintendo did create a seperate revenue reporting section for this (Consolidated Sales, Pg6: Smart Devices, IP Related Income, etc.), though, otherwise it would have just remained under Equity gains where we'd have had a hard time figuring anything out (and wouldn't count for their Quarterly Forecasts/Expectations and Earnings). We may be able to suss out their exact gains from this next quarter report.
It won't be a small sum with their Trademark cut, largest share of TPC, and so on, but its not going to be many hundreds of millions that's for sure.
But they'll probably gain far more from the surge across the world on Pokemon properties, particularly the games and the boost to hardware, and the large mindshare boost for Sun&Moon.
