Just a silly shower thought I had after hearing about Nintendo's copyright claim against Russ from Retro Game Corps.

They won't die. Their largest demographic is prepubescent children. Mommy and Daddy's money isn't going anywhere

I'd argue that they're more likely to morph into a patent troll if they ever do get anywhere close to their death throes.

We might even be witnessing the Genesis of that transformation now.

They have such a deep patent portfolio that they could really fuck with the whole industry.

If the switch 2 has the same lack of success as the Wii u I could see that
