@Zoomzeta I guess so. And yeah Nintendo has gone to several companies to publish exclusives. Heck, Octopath Traveler was an exclusive from square enix, a major studio. There's no need for them to buy up studios to get good exclusives from them.
@shuvamg009 Nintendo published the game. IE, the game exists because Nintendo gave them money to make it. And as publisher it's up to Nintendo if it releases on other platforms. Platinum may be a third party devleoper but in this case it was funded by Nintendo. That's why this, and Bayo 2, were Nintendo exclusives not because Platinum just doesn't feel like porting it to the ps4.
