eh, if somebody can bring back shining force in all of its glory I would be in. Although, I doubt Sony would be looking to aquire such a large publisher, especially in their current financial situation.

The only console maker I could see making that purchase would be microsoft, but I doubt they would since they are so dead in japan. More likely sega stays independent or gets picked up by another game publisher rather then a hardware maker.

I could potentially see Nintendo buying SEGA, as the original rumored stated...

maybe, definitely more likely than sony.  However, Nintendo already has a huge first party development roster, they don't really need it, same with Sony.  I see Sony and Nintendo more focused on improving their studios and maybe picking of the lone independent developer here or there.  The only console maker I see that would make such a large purchase is microsoft.  They are the only ones with both the need and the money...
