    Since the Portal name and assets are in use, Nintendo could go after Valve as well for seemingly “supporting” unauthorized use of their proprietary tools.

    Hunt Down The Freeman was released with Valve’s full support.

      That wasn’t released on Nintendo hardware using Nintendo proprietary development tools.

      There wasn’t a video game themed Japanese law firm with skin in the game; all technology and intellectual property used in Hunt Down The Freeman was Valve’s. Same with Black Mesa.
