>Disney net worth as of October 04, 2021 is $319.83B >Nintendo net worth as of October 04, 2021 is $58.49B
I think Disney could buy them if they wanted to.
Pokemon company is at $92.121 billion (not sure how that works with Nintendo since it's a partial ownership). Sure it's the number one grossing franchise of all time, but Disney has MANY franchises under its banner.
nintendo wouldnt do it because theyre fricking nintendo one and two japanese companies tend to "stay in the family" so to speak. it be another japanese company like sony but itll never happen though.
Net worth != Net cash they have on hand to purchase shit. They would have to take a huge loan probably to purchase Nintendo. Net wworth just means the worth of all their property and everything the company owns.
That's their market cap, not what the value of the things they own fully is.
Their standalone net is nearly 100 billion and nearly 150 when you put reasonable prices on all assets. Their ownership of just TPC is over 30 billion and that's without even counting shit like the intangible value of owning the trademarks like the names of every Pokémon.
I'm not an expert, call me ignorant if you want. However to my knowledge Nintendo is old enough to be considered a piece of Japanese history and as such Japanese law prevents the company from selling itself to a foreign entity.
No moron, Nintendo is indirectly competing with them. Why else would they adapt more anti-consumer measures like that limited-time Mario anniversary bullshit they pulled? Opening a theme park with Universal (a rival park to Disney), announced that they would like to do animation, etc.
They even outright admitted that they want Mickey to be dethroned by Mario.
Times are changing, Nintendo is competing with Disney. What a strange twist of fate.
>They even outright admitted that they want Mickey to be dethroned by Mario.
Already happened in the 90s. Mickey hasn't been in a single relevant piece of media since fantasia 70 years ago
It still saddens me they don't even try to do anything with Mickey anymore and treat him like a preschool show character. Those old Mickey Mouse cartoons are still entertaining to watch.
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DISNEY YOU FRICKS SORA IS A SQEENIX IP FRICK OFF IM TIRED OF PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT DISNEY LIKE THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS
you would think but im seeing people everywhere saying oh now mikeys gonna be in hurr durr. its so dumb. i guess i underestimated the massive moronation of smashgays
If anything Disney is going to buy activision, there were already rumors way before the rape scandal and both crash and spyro would fit the company well, hell, they could even make something a la mcu out of the Warcraft lore.
I hope not. You thought Nintendo lawyers were bad, wait until Disney lawyers get involved. That shit is a whole other dimension of "don't frick with our IP". Also expect every money grabbable IP to be milked dry within five to ten years, and then some.
_______I____ will buy Nintendo.
They dont have the money after their most recent merger with Fox
Is that why they are shilling their star channel and streaming to death?

Doesnt Pokemon make more money than Disney alone? Nintendo is a 1/3rd owner of TPC alongside Creatures and GF.

Mickey with eyebrows is so fricking cursed
He’s had eyebrows in parks for decades.
been that way since the 1950's
And it looks ugly. Glad in the more modern cartoons they don't use them.
here homosexual
not him but that looks wayyy beter tbh
*sony
You can't just "buy" companies you fricking moron. That's not how it works.
Also, Nintendo recently repurchased some of its own stocks. There's more fricking chance of you losing your virginity than Nintendo being "bought".
Japanese law won't allow it
Disney's gonna buy everyone except PC because it's a free market. :^)
if that where the case they wouldnt have removed all Disney properties from the art
I don't think you realize just how much money the DS made
I STILL think they're coasting on that money, and that was PRE-Wii
and now they are making money hand over fist from the switch
And yet Disney has 6x the amount of money Nintendo has even after that Fox deal.

so you admit that kingdom hearts is irrelevant?

anyone with a brain knows this just look at the way anything disney is stripped from the videos and stages
you would think but im seeing people everywhere saying oh now mikeys gonna be in hurr durr. its so dumb. i guess i underestimated the massive moronation of smashgays
They literally didn't allow mickey donald and goofy in smash, yes, now sora is an empty character
They can't afford it, and even if they could law prevents them from doing so
If anything Disney is going to buy activision, there were already rumors way before the rape scandal and both crash and spyro would fit the company well, hell, they could even make something a la mcu out of the Warcraft lore.

Who cares they both are the same souless shit now
