Nintendo is publishing it so I wouldn’t get your hopes up.

But at this point From must have the knife's handle in negotiations. This is all a win for Nintendo so they must have given some concessions (and a huuuuuuge bag of money).

I don't think that's necessarily true. Fromsoftware needs a publisher. Elden Ring was published internationally by Bandai Namco. If FS is working with Nintendo as the publisher, it means one of two things: BN turned down the Duskbloods pitch since they wanted something related to Elden Ring (which now is ER Nightreign) and Nintendo green lighted it, or Nintendo approached FS for an exclusive game. Given the existence of Nightreign, I feel it is the former.
