I am not surprised, the Redmond area is getting crowded and Microsoft is constantly growing. If you have ever been in one of the Microsoft buildings you would find a maze of offices crammed together.

You probably just answered your own question.  I mean isn't Nintendo right across the street from MS?  If MS keeps growing they'll want Nintendos real estate that their actually using and pay top dollar for it.  Probably paying top dollar for the 27 Acre Site as well.  Allowing Nintendo to use the money to move someplace less crowded.

We are still free men over here on the east side of the state, aka the best side of the state.

If Eastern Washington were to break off from Western Washington I would move in an instance to Yakima or Spokane. I'm sick of the politics here, and it would be nice to move to a sane place!
