The Nintendo Report: Baseballs, Bots, and Boxes

Welcome back to The Nintendo Report, where we’re taking a look at Nintendo’s intellectual properties and seeing how they’re doing. This is a company that has an astronomical number of brands under its belt, but for reasons defying logic (at least in my mind) only keeps a small number of them active at a time. Last time we covered the letter A (and numbers) so that leaves us with the letter B this time around. Let’s see how the Big N has been treating their franchises that start with the second letter of the alphabet.

Apparently the "brain training" games (not Brain Age per se) were part of a lawsuit here in the US. Maybe Nintendo is afraid to release the newest Switch title here because of that.

Huh. I didn’t know about that, but that makes sense!

I guess pictobits might have been a bit too close to tetris and had licensing issues.
