Platinum Games makes sense for Nintendo.

Honestly, I think Nintendo should grab Platinum not just to secure their software output, but to preempt Sony or MS doing so.

If their rivals swallow up all the major studios while Nintendo remain idle, they could wake up one day and find themselves without a whole lot of good sized external studios left to collaborate with.

Yes, but I hope they don't. I don't like the exclusivity race we're experiencing, it is going to bite us in the ass sooner or later to us all.

Exactly. I'm ok with Nintendo not buying anyone, but I'd rather they buy Platinum, Level 5, etc. Than let someone else buy them.
