There is this story how Microsoft wanted/wants to buy Nintendo but was laughed out of the room. Is nintendo not a stock company? Couldnt Microsoft just buy 51% of all the shares? From what Ive seen the biggest shareholder is a japanese bank with 17%. Its not like somebody already owns the half.

The problem is there isn’t an inf8nite amount of shares available, they technically need a controlling amount of shares for voting.
But there is volume on stock exchanges and I doubt that volume is enough to hold a controlling stake. Plus as they started buying all the shares the price would squeeze astronomically because there just isn’t enough for the current price point.
