Platinum and Nintendo, sitting in a tree - "We are very interested in 3DS!"

No.  It's really not their style of game.  Atlthough if they wanted to make a Metroid more along the lines of Other M without the poor design choices, it could be a pretty cool game.

@Roma- Sadly, Platinum games owns very few of their IPs.  Capcom still owns the rights to Okami and Viewtiful Joe, and Sega still owns the rights to Bayonetta.

If Sega owns Bayonetta, why did Platinum had to look for a publisher for the game, finding it on Nintendo?

That makes me think that Bayonetta is owned by Platinum Games.

 

OT. Platinum is a very talented dev team and Nintendo would be wise to have them by their side, but that doesn't mean that they have to buy them. Having a good relationship and working together to get the best for both should be enough.
