The videogame company becomes the principal owner of the Seattle Baseball team.

Nintendo company officials said Thursday that former president Hiroshi Yamauchi, who led the $125 million dollar buyout of the team way back in 1992, sold his privately held shares back in August to Nintendo's American subsidiary.

That sale has now boosted Nintendo's total ownership of the team to over 50 percent, making Nintendo the principal owner of the Mariners.
