Yea this has been known for awhile. Actually this rumor spread about 6-7 yrs ago and actually caused Nintendo to gobble up a lot of its stock to make sure a hostile takeover wasn't possible.

Yes Microsoft failed in making Nintendo an unresistable offer.
Nintendo would never have sold their freedom to decide whatever they want.
At least not for 20 billion dollars. ;)
