Also it would lead to sweet, sweet fanboy tears if Nintendo ended up owning BioWare (as would come as part of the EA package)

That would be just awful if Bioware were to develop on console only. Awful.

Awful.

I'm only assuming that they would be console only if that were to happen.

On another note - Does Nintendo buy many companies? I was under the impression that most of their studios had been built from the ground up. Hell, they're pretty robust already; ably supplying two conoles each generation.

Nintendo doesn't make just one system.

I'm not following?

He means Nintendo also makes handhelds, which Bioware dabbled in with that Sonic RPG.

And Nintendo doesn't really buy a whole lot of companies. Before their acquisition of NDCube late last year (which they already owned majority stocks in), the last company they purchased was Monolith back in 200...6, I believe?
