    You missed one thing in this video, you mentioned Ubisoft can’t be acquired due to French laws forbidding non-European companies from doing so. Same thing in Japan, foreign companies cannot acquire Japanese companies, hence why Disney has yet to purchase Sony to get the rights to Spider-Man. This means Capcom is also out of the question, and of course Nintendo

    I don’t think that Nintendo, even if it were looking to be bought, would ever let itself be bought by the likes of Disney. Nintendo cares way too much about its IP, and how it’s portrayed. Seeing what Disney has done to Star Wars, and what it is doing to Marvel currently, it would be a foolish thing to let Disney buy them.

    mat there's something you probably missed on the most "whos up for buy" list. Majority of the options there are Japan owned companies, and just like nintendo they are less likely to be bought out by American owned companies like amazon or comcast. They might get bought out by other Japanese companies but not by American owned.
