Holy crap dude, so in the last three years Nintendo has made over a trillion Yen, or nearly ten billion Dollars? That's insane

what could one buy for ten billion $?

Lot's and lotsa pizza! could probably buy Pizza hut, could certainly buy Dominoes and Papa Johns.

EA? EA might be nice, it is worth somewhere in the neighborhood of 6.5 billion, though if they wanted to pay cash it could probably be had for less.

Square Enix? hmm seems Sqeenix market cap is around 300B yen. So they could double up and get EA and Squeenix with cash on hand, and still have money for pizza.
This just in: FF13 and 14 Wii exclusive!


Activision? Well they're at a high point and valued at about 14.5 billion... and well except for guitar hero what successful games do they have that would fit on a Nintendo platform.
