Nintendo

Nintendo is the greatest video gaming company of all time to Japanese, Americans, Koreans (unless reminded that Nintendo is Japanese), the Chinese (to the point of piracy, in fact), and the Taiwanese (Europeans disagree, but they are pompous jerks that hate Japan and America anyway). It's been indefinently doing better than SEGA...

*Coin sound*

Also, they've been around for over 100 years, although in their older days, they used to make Hanafuda cards.

Nintendo despite having loved franchises such as Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Pokémon and others is also a company very known for their shady practices. One is that in the mid 80s, they forced most of the leading publishers and developers (such as Capcom, Konami, Technos, Atari/Tengen, and even Namco.) to sign a vicious contract that won't allow them to develop on any other console.

Then again they did make Super Mario Bros. 3 and Punch-Out!!, so yeah....

Oh, and they also recently announced that all three of the Metroid Prime games will be able to fit on one disc for the Wii. This recently announced game will be called Metroid Prime Trilogy.
