Nintendo considering ‘mergers and acquisitions’ doesn’t mean it’s planning anything major

Nintendo has billions of dollars in the bank. That’s money it could spend on tacos, Vegas gambling vacations, or — potentially — major acquisitions. The publisher is struggling right now, and a quick way Nintendo could shake things up — other than putting those billions on black at the Palms Resort — is to merge with another big company.

But is a merger or acquisition in Nintendo’s future? Possibly, but not necessarily.
