I'd be a little bit offended if Iwata tries do so as long as Ancel has other options.Iwata, here's your chance to approach a top-tier western 3rd party developer to collaborate on something. If you don't at least try that, you clearly deserve 3rd party support you get.
Nintendo already have a monopoly over platformers and their closes rival, Sonic, is a joke compared to them.
If Nintendo tries to capitalize on Ancel, we can say that the platforming outside of Nintendo's market is dead.
I AM a Nintendo fan, but I think having no competition, will not help even Nintendo in the end.
