>The ownership of the brand is so complicated and there's so much money involved that the three copyright holders formed TCPi purely to operate the brand so none of them have to bother with most of it.
>If Nintendo wants to do literally anything with this brand they have to file a bunch of paperwork with TCPi. It's not really comparable to any other Nintendo-published first-party or second-party franchise. It's almost a third-party franchise.
It's still dumb though.
