I totally agree. I think Nintendo is a fantastic company in terms of:

• high quality games
• frequent use of their IP
• good treatment of staff

They’re pretty awful when it comes to protecting their IP (emulators, merch, etc), but in terms of doing the actual company bits, they’re one of the best.

I hate their legal side, and I’m not a fan of their pricing, but I like pretty much everything else about them.
