He pockets most of the money under his company and outsources the rest.

Independence via a Nintendo owned first-party IP but being able to still do pretty much whatever the hell you want on the side is a fucking sweet deal, where is the confusion supposed to be? Most devs would kill for the kind of deal that comes with being a Nintendo satellite studio

It's not respectable. He's a Nintendo KEK and he's not even honest about it.

HAL isn't even owned by Nintendo, so he never worked at Nintendo.

I thought he doesn't take money upfront? and only accepts % of the sales?

1) He loves money
2) He knows he's nothing without brand recognition
