If Miyamoto is succeeded by someone with Gabe’s pro-consumer philosophy, Nintendo could dominate.

Sony and Microsoft are too busy doing the private equity playbook.

That's unlikely since they'd still be Japanese most likely

Nintendo's especially strict content creator and fan game creator practices stem from Japanese Copyright law encouraging IP owners to be waaaaaaaay more aggressive about protecting them than in most other IP markets.

Like I'm pretty sure the concept of fair use isn't legally recognized in Japan.

I'm going to need sources on that copyright law especially because of the amount of misinformation that is spread online about Japan deliberately by trolls and misinformed users

Totally Not Mark has a community discussion vid from when he had to deal with this personally because of all the manga video essays he'd been doing that got copystriked.

Does miyamoto do business stuff? Always thought he was the creative guy.
