@anthropy they already did, when they tried to buy ARM they had no references. TSMC demanded they paid over a billion dollar upfront for the 4000-series. Nintendo only agreed to let them design the switch-soc after they promised to take the hit on the development cost.
Nvidia is black listed by both Apple and Sony. And that's just what I know about.
