I don't think it's up to Nintendo.

I think SEGA should buy them, they clearly know how this stuff works.

No I don't think either company should take Capcom. However, like most said, if there was a choice...then Nintendo or Sony should come together and take some IP's. Titles like Phoenix Wright belongs on Nintendo and no where else, in my opinion. Street Fighter and other fighters would certainly be more popular on Sony consoles.

One of the best games of its genre EVER? Thats just hilarious LOL

There's just so much wrong in this post - I'm just gonna end it with this post cause there's no point in arguing over something that is just gonna go on and on regardless of what anyone says.

The idea of Capcom being bought by Nintendo is stupid and would do more damage to the gaming industry overall than benefit it - infact the only people who would actually be happy is like several people have said before - desperate Nintendo only fans who refuse to venture out to other platforms because you know console wars is srs business, if you cant beat them, buy them!

 


I doubt everyone who supports a hypothetical Capcom accquisiton by Nintendo wants it to happen just for the hell of it. At least speaking for myself I do realise that some IPs could be damaged by Nintendo exclusivity, but damn I want some desperatly needed Mega Man love. And we all that's only going to happen if someone rips the Mega Man IP from Capcom. Given the current situation with Mega Man making an appearance in Smash, Nintendo just seems the right company to do it.

And there's no denying that Xenoblade Chronicles was the JRPG of last gen.

well ehh opinion but i more hoping that if it comes down to this you split the ips to microsoft sony and nintendo

sony: resident evil,street fighter, devil may cry

nintendo: ace,monster hunter,okami,megaman, viewtiful joe

microsoft: dead rising, ghouls and goblins

how i would distribute them



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

FFVII does not really pass the test of time, but still remains one of the best JRPGs ever made. I like FFVIII and Chrono Cross much more, but that is just my opinion. Xenoblade however does pass the test of time when played in HD on Emulator: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hzFS1DftRA (spoilers).

Sony could still get Viewtiful Joe as well as a Ghosts N'Ghoblins IP. That's something that can be shared between Ninty and Microsoft. Nintendo could definitely do Mega Man though. Can't forget about the Blue Bomber!

Have some of the big 3 buy some of Capcoms IPs? Sure that could be beneficial. But straight up buying Capcom would more than likely lead to way more problems than benefits for any of the big 3.
