And you think Nintendo wouldn't be petty enough to bring this to the media AND threaten to leave the US? Trump's a fucking pussy. If the legal Nintendo team even implied they'd leave the country he would chicken out. We're talking about the orange TACO here.
They can do all that for some virtue signaling, or do nothing and profit as usual. How does this look like a hard decision to make?
You think capitalists care about anything other than money? Lmao
Ok so let's say that they do threaten that and Trump does back down. Nintendo have gained nothing by doing this and have pissed off the dictator. Not a financially sound move really.
No, I don't because they are bullies and bullies don't go after people who fight back.
Trump cares very little for Nintendo (which doesn't mean he's not a pussy).
He got Hyundai and LG to pull out. Y'know, the people who took his bait and fulfilled his mercantilistic desires by actually building a manufacturing plant in the US.
AFAIK Nintendo of America doesn't produce any hardware. They just translate, publish and sell software (and sue over IP).
These things don't contribute to the economy in Trump's eyes, so he'll most likely do even more damage if Nintendo ever ends up on the chopping block.
You know, if any of the younger members of the adminstration have registered accounts, Nintendo could do the funniest thing ever to their Switch 2s.
They have virtually nothing to gain and everything lose. They won't do anything.
