I don’t think a thread like this was done before so I thought it would be interesting to point out the franchises that Nintendo doesn’t own alone. Most people don’t know this but multiple of their series are co-owned.

First we need to establish some things. Ownership comes in two forms, copyright and trademark, and here I’m going to talk about copyright, which is what is divided.

Before going into the co-owned IP, here’s some of the IP Nintendo owns alone: Mario, Zelda, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, Metroid, F-Zero, Starfox, Tomodachi Life, Famicom Detective Club, Brain Age, Brain Training, Super Smash Bros, Astral Chain, ARMS, etc so the majority

Between those, you have spin-offs like Mario Tennis and Mario Golf which are co-owned by Camelot, or Paper Mario which is co-owned with Intelligent Systems. But Overall the Mario IP is Nintendo, with sub series having their own situation.

Now going into the shared IP, here they are:

I’m one half of a two-person studio in Wales. We’ve run three closed playtests of Captain Contraption’s Safari Park, and this week it’s open to everyone on Steam.

The idea has been rattling around in my head since I played Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis… What happens if you make a zoo game with no fences and let the animals eat each other?

Every creature in the game has a mind of its own with needs and wants. Predators hunt, carnivores fight over food, and you’re just trying to get visitors close enough to see something interesting without them becoming part of the food chain.

The creatures aren’t entirely animals, though, because the game is post-apocalyptic. You work for a pompous robot called Captain Contraption who is trying to understand humans by building the things they loved. Problem is he’s …
