    As per the article Nintendo already owned 96% of the shares. Original founders had only 4% shares till March. Sometimes after that, Nintendo has acquired those 4% too.

      Is releasing multiplats out of the question when a stakeholder has 96%? Otherwise I fail to see what the connection is to my comment

        The connection is that there’s almost no difference between 96% and 100%. When you own 96% of the company (and thus your opinion has a 96% weight), you control the company.
