What part of what I said was cherry picked? I made assumptions based off of the information I was able to find.That's just cherrypicking to construe the situation into something that works against Snake. Suppose Nintendo doesn't wanna associate with Konami for being bad employers, and the licensing talks came before that news came to light as you say. Why continue to go ahead using Konami IPs if news came to light that Konami is so horrible? Why wouldn't Nintendo drop out of this deal if such a thing mattered to them so much? Why would they purposely continue with this deal, but not with Snake (who for all we know, could've also been talked about licensing around the same time)?
And that's all assuming they even have this moral dilemma to begin with. Two major corporations don't have much reason to care how the other internally operates.
Like I said, the deal could have been in the works for a while, closing a deal that could have taken a long time to come to could seem like a bad idea to them, not to mention that they would at least be making money on with the games that could come from the deal. Nintendo really wouldn't get much out of bringing Snake back since there is not a MGS game on Nintendo platforms. And before you say anything, Snake's inclusion was a favor for a friend and Capcom and Nintendo have strong ties. With Konami basically leaving gaming I doubt that that IP deal really has much baring on the companies standing with Nintendo.
Look I'm not saying that cause of Konami's actions that there is no way Snake would return and anyone who says otherwise is wrong. For all I know Nintendo couldn't give a damn about what Konami is doing, but you trying to act like the current events regarding Konami aren't a reason to doubt Snakes return just seems (for lack of a better word) ignorant.
