Nintendo Doesn’t Want to Buy Any Giant Publishers

It’s looking like this console generation might be defined by video game acquisitions, as both Sony and Microsoft have been making billion dollar deals to bring outside talent under their respective umbrellas. While Nintendo has been known to purchase other studios on occasion, it doesn’t seem the company is in any rush to join this particular trend. In an interview with Bloomberg, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa intimated that the company’s philosophy towards game development would make it difficult to bring in a large number of employees unfamiliar with that style.
