U.K. regulators said Microsoft’s restructured deal to acquire ‘Call of Duty’ maker Activision Blizzard addresses concerns and opens the door to it being cleared.The email chain about Nintendo is dated Aug. 5, 2020, months after sales skyrocketed for Nintendo’s hit game “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” during the first few months of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The emails also confirmed rumors from earlier this summer that Microsoft had targeted another Japanese video game company, Sega, best known for its “Sonic the Hedgehog” games.

Spencer responded that what Microsoft lacked in mobile gaming infrastructure at the time would be made up for with its cloud gaming system.
