Wouldn't it be cool if Nintendo was to buy Sony!!! Nintendo currently has ~$10 billion dollars in cash assets that are currently liquid http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2011/annual1103e.pdf. Sony's market cap is currently at $9.6B, if Nintendo was to invest only 45% of it's total liquid assets it would give them at least 50% controlling stake on the company.  I know it's a long shot, but it would be nice to see these two Japanese videogame companies to merge into one.   

Sony isn't a video game company and a Nintendo Sony marriage is a non starter. 

Yeah, I've never heard of a Sony video game console /sarcasm.

Nintendo is a video game company.

Sony and Microsoft are large companies that also make video games.

there is a difference.

I think we all know that. However, since Sony's VG biz makes up a lot of Sony's current revenue I just grouped what both had similarly.
