Nintendo does still make good games, and they're the only ones who seem to care about multiple people playing together while sitting on the couch, as opposed to focussing only on online multiplayer across multiple systems.

Which is why it's so annoying that they do evil shit on the side like this. Nintendo are litigious to an absolutely callous degree. Wankers.

I feel like Nintendo has this huge army of full time lawyers who have to continuously find enemy to stay employed

It's the other way around. Nintendo is a law firm with a game dev hobby.

Plenty of couch coop indies out there. Big corpos only care about their money, Nintendo would also jump on the multiplayer wagon if they thought their fanbase would follow them.
