Disney+ is the inarguable core of The Walt Disney company, not its feature films - which now reside there and increasingly premiere there, too (notably, Disney’s over-the-top technology arm, Disney Streaming Services, comes from a $3B+ acquisition of BAMTech.) In 2007, Steve Jobs announced “The Mac, iPod, Apple TV and iPhone. Only one of those is a computer. So we’re changing the name.” And thus Apple Computer was renamed Apple Inc.

Nintendo does not face the near or even medium-term challenges that Disney or Apple did in the 1990s. Unlike these two companies, its internal creative output and talent remains strong. Nintendo’s IP may have been eclipsed in recent years, but it still reaches tens of millions a year. Its hardware, too, continues to soar. And there will be substantial lift from a Nintendo subscription — even if it doesn’t launch for several more years. This means that innovation, profits, and outstanding games will continue.

However, the “Nintendo is Disney” thesis is deeply flawed. It feels more like a desire to apply a pattern than to find a real analogue. Elements of Nintendo certainly represent Disney, but they represent Disney insofar as both companies are best in class creators of four-quadrant, multi-generational content. Otherwise the businesses are fundamentally different, their management styles fundamentally different, and their approaches to content itself are fundamentally different, too.
