at this point i don't anyone would mind if crapcom is bought by any of them

Don't forget Monster Hunter. And remakes of the good Resident Evil entries.

10 years greatest game event!

Its definitly a good idea. SEGA has a plethora of great IP's and Sonic in particular fits Nintendo like a glove.
My only question is how would the games be developed by. SEGA is now a shell of what it used to be.

If it does happen, best grab all those PSN/Xbox live games while you still can.
For the record, i guess there are some signs of this possibility as the 3DS has a SEGA Game gear virtual machine aswell.

 

Also, it probably makes the Wii U a must-buy for me. Old SEGA fanboy here.

 

It just occured to me that camelot will probably be more than happy to make Shining Force 4 if Nintendo aquires SEGA. That would be awesome. Also the potencial of Shenmue 3 or Panzer dragoon Saga 2... hmmm...

Well it would give them essentially a monopoly on nostalgia.


lol, so true.

 

OT - as far as i'm concerned nintendo should go for it.  sega has very few games that are relevant lately.  MSony wouldn't miss those games at all imo.  then under the aid of nintendo sonic might actually turn out good for a change.  win for nintendo.  no tragic loss for MSony.  sounds like a good enough idea to me.

Capcom already supports Nintendo-platforms decently. Konami on the other hand - think about it: Switching from Nintendo-hate to Nintendo-exclusivity with one cheque.

the MGS franchise alone would cost them like 500M if not more, so I really doubt it.

Yes, I agree. Also, if Konami at the moment don't want to develop for Nintendo-platforms, it must have it reason in the opinion of the staff. If Nintendo takes over probably a lot of important developers will go, leaving Konami essentially defunct.

If they don't and ms or Sony get Sega... no Mario and Sonic at the Rio games 2016!!!!!



Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

The moment I realized the surce was Hip Hop Gamer: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Seriously a Nintendo-Sega console would be my dream come true, if that happened Sega not having their own console wouldn't be sad at all.



I LOVE ICELAND!

Sega headed by Shigeru Miyamoto and developing all of nintendo's less important franchises with new House of the dead, madworld, Conduit games, more older Sega games on Nintendo's VC (Dreamcast, Saturn, 32x) would make Sega profitable again.



 

You cannot mix matter and anti-matter, Captain!

Is there any talent left at Sega? I don't know that it would be a good acquisition even if it were true.

As someone said earlier, I'm all for Nintendo buying Platinum. They should turn Platinum into EAD 6 and give Kamiya complete autonomy to make whatever projects he wants.

Fuck, that'd be amazing.


Well if anyone could ressurect some of Sega's dead franchises it's Nintendo.

 

Get some Mario guys on Sonic,

Get one of the Fire Emblem devs a team to work on Shining Force.
